Today I'm too lazy to include links. The games should be one search query away anyway.

I've mainly been playing Idle Elemental this past week. This game is grindy in a fun way. There's always this feeling of having something new to unlocked, and each new unlocked thing introduces new aspects to the previously unlocked things. There's a certain beauty to how these elements interact with each other. The one major thing I don't like about the game is that sometimes it feels like it's forcing me into situations that'll make me desire new elements instead of having said situations naturally arise out of the scaling. The biggest example of this is when new elements are suddenly introduced into the costs for upgrades. It's just a pet peeve of mine. By the way, the game is available on the web and Android. I recommend playing it on Android as the web version can lag considerably.

There's a new round in FairGame, and I'm participating in it. It's a very relaxed round. On web.

I've been checking in more on Gooboo. It has nice ideas though the pacing is a bit too idle for my taste. Web.

I'm also playing Unnamed Space Idle. Web + all major desktop platforms.

I really am feeling lazy today. I only wrote a long description for the first game. Anyways, it's kinda quiet here considering the amount of people who have joined. I see a lot of people here now.

Thanks for sharing idle elemental. I enjoy it so far. Do you know, how fire prestige is supposed to work? I only see the 2 min timer, but there is no way to activate it. Am I missing something?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

For that, you first have to unlock metal (get 12 earth) and then spend the metal on activating temporary automation (bottom right corner of each action). Each second of temporary automation contributes to ticking down that timer. If you have multiple active the timer ticks down accordingly faster, so don't be afraid of activating as much temporary automation as you can afford.

Furthermore, the effects of fire prestige only take effect after purchasing the second transcend upgrade in the air tab.

I'll admit it's tough to understand what to do. It wasn't intuitive to me either.

Yay that makes sense. I got my first two "on accident" and wondered, how it works. So "Auto 2m" means "Auto(mate anything for) 2 minutes. Thanks for explaining
