Some comments...

Monster credits are just $ earned (unless there is a bug). Really bad name, as it turns out. But I love the little guy on the button...

The game will not go on forever, and it will slow down eventually. If it had a million players I'd keep pumping out content, but this is a hobby project, so... I am considering
adding more, but at that time the players are probably gone anyways.

But fun to see you are engaged!

I think there must be a bug.
I rolled over at about 8billion displayed total. (didnt get a screenshot, and looks like my progress was reset, since I didnt back it up..)
I rolled over at about 6h 20min.

if we look at my posts. 49.3% x 8b= 3.92b. checks out.
25.3%=2.024 b. is off a by a small amount.
12.1%=.968b. is off by even more.

intrinsics. make less sense.7.9%=.632b
26.2%=2.1b.

haus 27.3%=2.184b. he's also off it seems.


so, first we should look and notice I earned credits WAAAAY faster then intrinsic, and even haus. I was "playing" efficiently, with it on the second monitor for a bit while watching videos. so hitting chests every once in while. the Ready button. and doing quick math in my head for efficient upgrades.
we can also notice my passive income is much higher then theirs. by the time I rolled over, I think it 800k/second.

so, possibility, "ready button", and/or chests are adding to credits greatly. and not being logged into "total earned"

possibility, passive income is worth more then arena income for "$ earned) if we look at haus, and mine, it could be ONLY passive income is being counted. however, intrinsics 26%, with 2.3b passive, does not check out compared to my screenshot with 49% and 2.6b passive.

possibility gold/dagger? I don't think that shows up in the passive or arena totals.. I invested into that fairly heavy early. if thats not adding to the total visibly, that could account for the discrepancy.

I had to check the code. It is driven 100% by passive income per second, and nothing else (which makes the name even worse).

I slowly moved away from the importance of the arena, even if I wanted that to be the main focus. For browser reasons. Stupid throttling of invisible windows I wasn't aware of. The arena hardly runs if the window is not visible. The browser just says nope.

ah. ok, to clarify the system. how about rename it, the monster man to "the taxman". "he collects a % of your passive income, and at certain point, allow rebirth. " gives an implied death and taxes joke as well.

I like the concept and what you put together, it'd be cool to see a new iteration or whatever else you had/have in mind. These little idle shit games are crack for me b/c I don't have to pay attention.

Hell, I've had The Tower idle game running in Bluestacks for a year and a half b/c really all I do is click "Start Run" ever 12 hours and just let it go in the background, then every few days spend resources and start a new run.

I'm not that imaginative, I was mostly going to just add more tiers with more visual effects on the arena. Weapons, classes, etc. Half of this I lifted from Cookie Clicker, which seems to do everything right. That would have to be a completely new release, because there are only so many tiers to unlock, and people will have moved on.
