When appeasing users with 100 free crystals, ideally you want them to click to receive the 100 free crystals (usually a pop up straight after you enter the game or a giant shiny warning symbol to tell them to collect it) so that they understand they have received it. If it feels invisible, people won't think they get it or they will complain about where is it. Of course too many pop ups is bad, but for one time stuff which is not common, this should be done to feel the impact.
As kripley88 and fodschwazzle said long ago, the bat cluster totally sucks because it removes your vertical speed AND prevents you from gaining upward speed for a long period of time. Somehow the fact you can upgrade to have more of this crap baffles me, since it easily ruins your run by making it harder to get meteors.
Tips in general : Get more plants, a 2nd plant doubles the amount of trucks you can out put early on. In my experience, upgrading a plant is not very useful compared to building a new plant (Even a third plant seems better than production upgrade). If you're aiming for the hard badge, do not break down barriers and use helicopters to monopolise unreachable building projects. Aim to complete projects instead of spreading out, as a project completion (especially for big projects) rewards a large chunk of money. You must manually distribute truck and helicopters between your plants if the projects are not in optimal positions. Try to make sure they are spread roughly evenly to maximise efficiency of production. If you need a burst of money, prioritise small projects with high income over large projects with less normal income.
The distance required to max out UP per ascension should be stated clearly in the UP counter. A minimum distance required to get 1 UP would help as well.
It did not used to lag like this before the 1.0.0 update. I can feel the game slow to a crawl in under an hour, but before that update (along with the UI revavmp) it could run for hours without slowing down that drastically or noticeably.
Also, stop replying to obvious shill account who give no reasonable feedback. You make yourself look shady and bad, even supposing you did not buy the services of shills. 3 of them are 1 day old, the other is also a level 1 with no previous activity.
I hope the cat is evil (or the greater evil of the two). Because at this point secretly evil person who awakens you from stasis is more cliche than supposed entity setting you free being actually evil.
The game is so critically bugged at the higher levels (legendary weapons that cannot be sold and take up inventory space permanently). People complaining suggested features still not in even after half a year (fast scraping of treasure chests). Weird mechanics that are half bugged or just bad (why does crafting mats use up crafting energy after each batch). Really, I wonder how it can be rated so high.
Arrow keys, X and C. I've included more details on the right under "Instructions". Enjoy!
