What are the rewards in general for challenges in Evolve? I'm not actually 100% on that.

Much, much shorter though, I ripped through the whole thing in a day. Lot of fun though. Does a fantastic job of making me think about the narrative of the processes it's doing, even without any actual text of the sort.

He got real pissy when it tanked in comparison and he had to go get a job again wasn't the alternate ending also made by that guy and thus isn't in the web version because the web version understands that implication and understatement can be better storytelling than hammering it in I've never played the mobile ports so

Yeah, grinding out the gravitonic meta challenge was a lifesaver for me. Flipping through the discord it sounds like the developer wasn't personally bothered by the late automation and didn't realize that it's a serious issue until releasing it. It sounds like making it more accessible that way is on the table but for now there's a lot of spam you have to do. i don't mind as much as I might just because it's an extremely active game (I would be loathe to call it an idler at all) but it's deffo the worst part of the game.

Gravitonic meta-challenge gives you the autobuyer for gravitonic upgrades. It's not feasible until you're fairly deep into the next layer (which feels really good for those leaps forward). Also for, I think, 10k shards you can get the 'gain gravitons as soon as you can without reset' from the automation shop; this is worth getting as soon as that amount sounds like something you can feasibly grind out. That and buy max makes things less painful cause you can just click in to gravitons and mash M a few times but the autobuyer is where it's at.

You can do it at 4-5 cp into Atomic-- what it really takes is manually running photonic resets for a while. I set up a macro on my mouse to chain hitting 1 and P to help me squeeze it out early. You will want/need the full neutronic path down the four-way split in the vacuumic tree as well-- grind up neutronic dimensions and build up as many stars as you can. You will also obviously want your temperature running as hot as possible. Green waves over a hundred helps a ton, as do your other waves.

Feline Mind Meld posted:I feel like i'm stagnating in matter dimensions I don't get many pings from their discord, if that helps. If you want to farm shards prior to breaking infinity, take the middle branch on the three-way split. Anyway your target is 24 theorems. Go down the matter branch at the 3-way, allocate your neutrons, and hit a photonic reset. This should give you a bunch of 3rd dimensions for theorems. Then respec your theorem tree. Go down the gravitonic branch on the 3way, pause to pick up the "unused theorems give you extra cap" on the way down, then take the 3rd (gravitonic) branch on the 4 way. Once you have done that, farm some waves and run your temperature as hot as you can stand it. Then once you've done that, just run photonic resets for a while until you can break infinity and go atomic.

Somfin posted:So I finally tried Mine Defense and my goodness it is a good idling time, but at some point the slow pace of it burnt me out. Evolve did the same thing, unfortunately. I'm really into substantial paradigm shifts but something about the whole "yeah this'll take five hours of keeping the tab open (and these days, active) can really kick me out of the game. try Matter Dimensions, after the initial hump it's got very little required downtime. development seems dead since its been like a year but it's got a good lot of content I've been replaying it since reinstalling windows lately, I think it's maybe my favourite incremental

The alkahistorian games are good too

It's not the most original, but it's not the most bland either. I wish there was a bit more automation, but it's fine. oooo, i took one look at the style and went 'wait, is this by the endless stairwell guy'? and it is, hell yeah. I loved that game. Very much incremental not idler but I like my games active.

so ive been playing theresmore for a while now, it's been scratching a good itch for me to poke at, but the dumbest thing happened so when your scouts go out and come back, one of the failure messages is like "your scout committed suicide out of shame at not finding anything", which I was like, yeah that's kind of lovely, so I go to the subreddit and make a post about it, very breezy, nothing judgey, asking that it be changed. Dev agrees, says it'll be changed next update. Yay! Then this jackass is so extremely not mad about it that he responds to say how hilarious the message is and that I should grow some balls, which like my guy I'm trying but i need professional installation. He then continues to be so not mad about it he spams like three consecutive memes about scouts across the subreddit  anyway that's my Theresmore story

Cobalt60 posted:I saw this unfold over there. I remember thinking that the Dev response was very reasonable and open-minded. OFC there has to be some redditor who feels a driving need to push back against simple human empathy. I know, right? Last I saw he was sending me chat requests, but nothing since. Which, you know, wise call; I'm happy to let him embarrass himself in public since literally no one seems to be taking him seriously, but if he wants to escalate poo poo over a literal single line of text, lmao quote:This was the last time I built or used Spies. I have no idea if they have any other function. Yeah, spies are in no way worth it if you know what the fights are, and well: here's a super helpful spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Q3LTRUIgLY8IJcgmC8wV0WmilUj4m4b5VhGQ9ko-MN4/edit#gid=1076167362 Very important to note that the 'strong against' bonus works both for and against you. In particular if an enemy runs really any amount of shock at all, you want zero tanks. Get your defense from heavy warriors or knights instead. So much as a single spearman will double the attack of the entire shock component. (similar for all other types, but tanks vs shock is the one that'll really get you). it's not a super well designed game lmao, but i'm enjoying it. If for no other reason than every now and again the phrasings of some of the lines make me go 'wow i know 4x as a genre is really ideologically suspect but holy unexamined biases batman i should really make my own civ builder with blackjack and communism' and one day that will push me over the edge.

you really want to not run any tanks at all for the vast majority of opponents, it'll crank their attack sky high it's a truly dumb system

the other thing too is that once you get a couple bonuses in them, shock and rider both will provide more defense than tanks. there is very rarely a reason to use tanks ranged can work as fill for riderless enemy comps in the rare occasion where you're fighting tank+shock combos like anything with trolls in it. either way pure shock and pure rider formations are generally the way to go ime

yeah it's worth checking on the spreadsheet, just add 1 of a class to see if it spikes the numbers too high. my objection to tanks specifically is that shock components are almost always a significant part of the attack, so doubling with tanks will add thousands of attack sometimes as for monks, they're cheap but monks they come at the opportunity cost of sharing purchase currency with battle angels, so I'm not hiring the bmx bandit

im gonna be honest i have no idea what anyone saying dodecadragons is slow is talking about; some bits are slower than others but it was the one incremental game that during development, when an update hit, i would just start over from hard reset and be back up to content in like two days

Turtle game seems pretty cute so far for such an early game. I didn't have any trouble learning about things like equipment upgrading or chests; the tooltips all seemed fairly clear for me. Maybe those weren't in yet when you all who had trouble tried. Seems to be a fair bit of weaving back and forth to farm stuff for crafting with though. I'm okay with it occupying a window for now.
