It’s just gonna make you mad
Seriously, who’s idea was this? The random upgrade system is laughably bad game design. The math this game is working with already makes it a punishing incremental game, but that might be forgivable IF the progression was actually under my control as the player. But it’s not. For anyone who has not played this game, basically, the only meaningful way you can upgrade your various colors is by a prestige mechanic, which grants you a random upgrade to one of three aspects of your 9 colors. But the upgrade that you get is completely random. The problem with this is, there are NUMEROUS points in your playthrough where you need ONE SPECIFIC upgrade to progress in the game. But you can’t just get it. Nooooo, you have to ROLL THE DICE on a ONE IN 27 CHANCE TO ACTUALLY GET THE UPGRADE THAT YOU NEED TO PROGRESS THE VIDEO GAME, LEAVING YOU TO BASICALLY JUST PRESTIGE OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN NOT PROGRESSING UNTIL THE GAME DECIDES “you can progress now 😊” look, games are subjective and if you’re into cock and ball torture then maybe you’ll love this. But it’s not for me.

Solid game, but late game drags on
The UI is very tastefully done and the game is simple but enjoyable. Early game moves by very fast and you can make it seemingly through most of the way through the game in just a few hours. My one complaint however is that the pacing toward the late game begins to drag on very slowly. Meaningful upgrades are few and far between and it becomes progressively more frustrating to rack up a high prestige boost several times just to have it all go to an upgrade that’s useless for you at your level.
I believe the game would be better overall if it started somewhat slower and the pacing was more even throughout the game.

Progress Wall
Once you’re at the point of “Finish the Game” being your last unlock you get stuck in a loop of resetting for 5m prestige over and over and you’re at the mercy of RNG to put you over the horizon for progression on maxing each color. The progress curve feels like it’s moving really nicely up to that point and then you’re suddenly stuck on each reset feeling like it does nothing over and over. I’m not sure if it’s just that I’m getting unlucky with the prestige allotment or what but it’s killing my motivation to want to keep progressing toward game completion.

boring unintuitive game
meh
Enraging, a joke
The rng is designed to punish idle players.
