TAP GALAXY is a space mining incremental clicker game where you mine exotic planets, moons, asteroids, and comets for resources that help you colonize galaxies and build your Galactic Empire! The game starts on a small, moon-like planet that you can tap on to collect resources. You can then spend what you've found on new miners, machines and boosts– and that's just the beginning! With the help of Colonel Flint (who's much more than an ordinary chimpanzee), you can explore your Galaxy and search for new resources to mine! Reach the farthest corners of the universe by buying space probes and leveling them up. The galaxy is yours to explore! But wait, there's more! Wormholes will let you move from galaxy to galaxy where you will discover uncharted planets and resource rich moons! Who knows, maybe one day you will be able to conquer Trappist-1! But be careful! The universe holds ugly surprises as well. You will have to defend your ground from terrible aliens. Don't let them stop you on your intergalactic quest! Start mining now to grow your Main Colony... turn it into the largest in the universe! The potential is endless! Have fun with the new 3D touch feature which lets you enhance the power of your laser beam in battle mode! Big fan of Tap Galaxy? Now you can download stickers for iMessage for free!

(Played this since I was 3, would be absolutely wonderful if you added these) 1. Better Time System: Currently, the only way to skip time is to watch an ad or click repeatedly. There should be upgrades to make time pass faster, or make clicks more powerful on spacecrafts. This is currently a very ad-heavy game, which isn’t fun. 2. More Galaxies: I propose adding three more galaxies: Dark Galaxy - unlocked at 40,500,000rsc Crystal Galaxy - unlocked at 121,500,000rsc Infinity Galaxy - special requirements mentioned later. Obviously, these would come with their own comets, stat boosts, themes, etc. These would be even larger than the Frozen, Volcanic, Sandstorm and Acid galaxies, with even more to explore. The Infinity Galaxy has an infinite, randomly generating map, as explained later. 3. More Upgrades Once you surpass a certain amount of resources, you have huge amounts of every upgrade and you are pretty much done with the game. This isn’t great, since it means that the game is over quickly; not what you want when making an idle game. To fix this, more CPS upgrades should be added, along with others such as: Butterfly Colony: increases the rate at which space butterflies appear. Should eventually start costing coins. Monster Hunters: upgrades miners to warriors who fight monsters. Obviously, stronger monsters would need to be added to balance this. Engines: slightly increases the speed of spacecrafts. Power Engines: slightly increases the amount of time taken off by a click. Come up with any others you want. 4. The Infinite Galaxy: The Infinite Galaxy is unlocked through the wormhole of the Crystal Galaxy. To move, you need to have bought every upgrade and completely explored the Crystal Galaxy, along with having at least 1,000,000,000,000rsc (which should be easily managed at this stage). Once the Infinite Galaxy is unlocked, the map spreads forever. The further you go, the longer the journey is, so you should be able to set up Space Bases for a fee once you have gone far out enough, which can have their own spacecraft once they are set up. (An “Antimatter Rocket” should be able to be upgraded perpetually for long journeys, however.) The further out an object is from the main planet, the more valuable it will be (e.g. larger asteroids/moons, more powerful comet swarms with exotic types of comet, or other new content). Add new content to be found around the map randomly - it’s your choice what to add, just make sure the game is not repetitive and introduces novelties for as long as possible. Add new currencies, concepts, upgrades; go to town! 5. Completion of the Story: Some people are just completionists. They want to see the game end. This is for them… the Earth was left in ruin, right? Somewhere in this Infinite Galaxy, you will find the ruined Earth. It may be ages away from the main planet of the Galaxy. The Earth will present you with final quests, which will allow for the planet’s restoration. These quests should act as a “100%” milestone of sorts. You should add more depending on other features you choose to make, but here are a few to start: * Collecting a very large amount of resources * Buying a very large amount of each upgrade * Finding places far from the main planet * Deliver all the materials from the main planet to Earth on a final, very long journey of 28 days (which could be sped up through upgrades and minigames) * Collect the Crystal Heart of a final boss monster which is found far into the progression of the Infinite Galaxy This will result in the ending: “Now, enough resources had been found within the seven galaxies to restore Earth to its former beauty. Humanity has been granted a second chance, and it’s all thanks to our hero, Colonel Flint! You have worked countless years to bring back our planet because you had hope, even in a time when all hope was thought to be lost. Our kind swear that we shall never harm this planet again. We have seen what happened when we plundered it, and we have seen what was needed to bring it back. Through the Crystal Heart, and all of the resources from the uninhabited worlds, Earth has returned. Forests of flowers are blooming, animals roam free, and the people rejoice in the land restored! There will be no more mining, no more destruction. There will be no more burning coal. There will only be peace and happiness in the land brought from seven others. Thank you, Colonel Flint. You have saved the world.” With these changes, you can bring this GAME back. As an almost ten-year Tap Galaxy player, I would be amazed to see even one of these added. I doubt you will notice me, being game developers, but if you release a new update to this game, it will be appreciated. - TopStarInfinity (Tap Galaxy player since 2015) ### 5/5 — Nostalgia *2021-11-21, version 1.5.2* This game was so much fun to play as a kid this game was apart of my childhood ### 5/5 — Monster *2020-12-16, version 1.5.2* Why is there a monster on a baren planet? ### 1/5 — Naja *2020-07-29, version 1.5.2* Werbung ohne Ende. Ich liebe Werbung in Spielen. Vor allem, wenn sie andauernd kommt. Das ist absolut genial. Werbung Werbung Werbung. ### 4/5 — Bug wormhole *2020-06-17, version 1.5.2* Bonjour j’ai un souci au niveau du jeu j’ai un wormhole mais je peux pas le prendre je pense que cela est dû à un bug j’aimerais que vous puissiez régler ça car je ne peux pas atteindre la cinquième galaxie ### 4/5 — Warnings *2020-05-28* I love this game but it would be cool if we had warnings. Try making the percentage go red if a moon or asteroid is at 5 or 10 percent also give us forever to mine the whole asteroid it's a bit stressing only having 12 hours. I'd love a fifth Galaxy, and maybe consider adding a higher distance! Yes I don't get why there are two spacecrafts but keep them as I love travelling 2 areas 12hr or 24hr at a time and can't you add up our resources and upgrades and connect all the Galaxy Maps together so we can revisit our loved galaxies? ### 5/5 — Just a thought 💭 *2020-04-22, version 1.5.2* Please update this game , it’s really enjoyable add some cool new features and many other planets to explore ### 1/5 — update your game *2020-03-27, version 1.5.2* update the game please ### 4/5 — Fun, needs update *2019-06-15, version 1.5.2* Fun, unique idle clicker. Needs more updates though. Maybe have a feature to upgrade your base (building in main planet in background) and unlock new buildings/tech. Idk. Fun. Wish you could make more money when not playing, glad its offline though. ## Frequently asked questions about Tap Galaxy ### What is Tap Galaxy?
