An idle game is really only measurable in the feeling of progress, and this game can’t manage that at all. You can improve your crew, add speed, number of units, but the choke point is the resources. You’re stuck with 3 resource points, meaning getting more than 3 units is completely pointless, and there was no way I could find to increase the number of resource points with the only visible UI being the Upgrade menu, which has the aforementioned upgrades. To make it even worse, it makes no progress when the app is closed, so the only way to progress is sit there with the app open, watching the units stand around until the resources decide to refill, see the three of them walk over, take the resource, and walk back. It might make a decent screensaver, if only the resources didn’t refill so slow. Beavers are cute though.
Very cute but has a habit of crashing and when it closes it doesn’t save your progress. There’s also a minor issue with the coins not being accurate to what you actually have.
Very cute solid game with little bugs, very easy to get addicted. Only problem I have is there are only 10 levels. I know they will add more in the future but 10 felt a little short. You also can’t restart and make more. As an idle game the easiest way to keep people around is allowing them to reset their progress to gain a multiplier. Still very solid game
