I’m waiting continued

If you need an idea for cylinders I have one rainbow cylinders basically like golden flask but you prestige your ice flasks and tubes and cylinders.

I’m waiting

Are you still working on the cylinder update I need to know and soon and when it’s ready let me know because the progress is very slow at this point but still a good game

Pointless

There is no content here. I played for 30 minutes hoping it would be something interesting… at no point is it beneficial to do anything but have red bottles be made. So you just slowly add more bottle makers and spend your money making them run faster… that’s the whole game.

Did I play

Oh!

I want the cylinders soon!

I am on the tubes layer close to getting enough golden tubes to unlock cylinders!
