Easily the best incremental game I've played on the Playdate. I only wish it lasted longer as it took me just under 45 minutes to get every Achievement.

Thank you so much for playing, for your kind words, and for leaving a comment—it really means a lot to me!

I did think a lot about the game’s length during development. Considering how Playdate games are often enjoyed in shorter bursts, I leaned towards a quicker progression.

That said, I’ve realized that some upgrade items are a bit too powerful, so I plan to adjust their balance in the next update.

Adding new upgrade items or achievements isn’t planned for now, but it’s something I’d like to consider in the future!
