Flash End-of-Life, Ruffle Integration!
This game runs on Adobe Flash. Effective Jan. 2021, Adobe began blocking its flash player's use everywhere. Kongregate is now partnering with Ruffle to make some of our Flash content playable again. Please note: If you are using Ruffle, badges will not work normally. In order to earn a badge in a Flash game, you will need to complete the badge, then submit a screenshot (showing both proof of completion and your username) as a missing badge report using the report missing achievement option. Also, please join us in the Kongregate Discord for all the latest Kongregate news!
Upcoming Planned Outage for Site Updates
On Monday, November 24th starting at midnight Eastern Time, Kongregate.com will be unavailable for up to two hours for planned maintenance.

Good game but with the slowest start in any idle game I've ever played

I feel like the game should give you some sentences to type so that you feel like you're accomplishing something rather than just button mashing randomly.

game should start with $10 so you can buy 1 employee instead of mashing the keyboard for awhile

Some suggestions for enhancing gameplay:
1) add commas to separate the different monetary incriments. ie, x,xxx,xxx for 'x' million and x,xxx for 'x' thousand. This makes is easier to find out how much money you actually have.
2) When anything is open, it covers how much money you actually have, thus making it difficult to see what you can and can't afford. Add you current amount to each screen where you purchase something.
3) I can't remember how many employees of each type I have to fire, or if I fired them all until I get back to the main screen. Perhaps add a number of each you currently own on the employees tab.
4) Good job so far :)

Not only does the bar fill too slow manually, it's kind of annoying that it doesn't work with the mouse.
