I have never ever seen a game that needs a turbo mode so bad. Sitting and clicking waiting for a billionty cells to manifest. I fear for the integrity of my mouse. Just make it more user friendly.
You don't use an autoclicker?

Honestly, this game isn't very good. It combines some of the worst design elements of clicker games.

There is an ascension process, BUT the game itself does not rollover or calculate beyond the first transcending tier. So if you work hard and make a billion evolution points you'll only transcend once because 'Oops! You only needed 500K' with the rest being a waste of time. There is no indication when you can or should transcend unless you're mentally keeping track from the transcend menu. Transcending is also a straight multiplier without exponential growth because of how it only goes up 1 tier at a time so its a massive grind.

There are auto-clicking and idle generation mechanics, but it isn't an idle game. You can't have it running in the background because Xenocytes will constantly spawn over time and consume cells. If you don't have the auto-kill upgrade (a whooping 50B cells at the last tier) this will end your run because they'll kill you by consuming cells. So you have to manage and kill the xenocytes until you get the auto-kill upgrade, but each kill gives you evolution points for transcending and "Oops! You only needed X to transcend" making most of it futile.

The character design is very...SCP...but that's to be expected and the scenes are visible in the gallery and are composed of generic audio on repeat with simple animations. It is VERY easy to lose your progress as well with a simple warning and the confirm/deny seem to flip sides depending on what you are doing.

I managed to cheat engine my SCP-682 last time, did not expect Elden Beast.

But two of the scenes are still locked lol
How'd you even manage that, I tried cheat engine, I'm not really the best at using it but I can't even try. Shit just keeps giving out "No readable memory found" and trying to fuck with the .dat file didn't do any good, I managed to make it show headers but the values were all fucked. Seeing .dat files in the save location I expected binary or some txtesk workabout but neither worked nor did any online quick n easy reader. And given I don't want to waste another few hours maxing out either character and their transcending them. I'll prolly put it on ice for myself until someone figures out a quick and layman oriented route if I don't figure something myself

I will point out that you totally CAN idle the game. It's not well telegraphed, but there are basically two ways to play. Neurons only multiply your click amounts, not passive gain. So never taking them and idling is very viable. Yes, some enemy cells spawn to take your points, but they have a cap and if you trim away the heaviest hitting ones at your tier and leave the rest alone they'll pretty quickly fill the entire enemy pool with guys taking less than 1% of your generation.

Other complaints about the game are relatively valid. But you can totally play it idle. It's slower than playing with an autoclicker and blazing through obviously, but I thought I'd point it out.

I really want to know what dev thought when he added enemy scaling with ascensions...

Playing past 10 asc is almost impossible. I had to use autoclicker because i get overrun by violet cells even before i unlock 1st attack upgrades.

some major problems here.

Biggest one: Theres no benefit for passing the transcendence number. It resets your count to zero each time. That sucks because you spend most of your time at the most dull, boring part of the game. Almost every idle clicker with rebirth mechanic scales based on your bonus resource, and for a damned good reason.

Enemy scaling is batshit insane. 30 seconds into the third ascension and I'm getting dinged for -100 a time, putting me at -100 or -200 cells. WTF were you thinking? You can't possibly play without an autoclicker.

Genes/tissues are worthless. They grow so slowly that they never have an impact on your progress.

Enemy auto-attack is so late as to be nonexistent. Why? It should start at something like 1 attack per 10 seconds early on and scale up from there.

Ain't nobody got time for this. I played 90 minutes and without major overhaul that's all I'll ever play.

The easiest way to get through that is to just leave the early attackers alone. There is a max number of enemies you can have on screen, and when all of them are taking either 100 or 1000 a tick, they're a minor burden at best right away and are completely negligible later on. It also opens up the idea of just idling without neurons at all. Neurons just buff your click points anyways, so they don't buff you while your idling. You can get to any arbitrarily high ascension if you want. Though there isn't much reason that I can tell to do that. Once you get to 20 trillion points, you've unlocked everything.

Wanted to see second type. And sadly, the method you desribed....
It works until you hit 9-10 asc. After that?

After that low-tier enemies doesnt spawn. Literally, first ten enemies and only one is t1. Im getting swarmed by the guys that are require last tier damage uprageds. The green ones, that are not starter greens. Sadly, by that time i have only 1 lvl in the first one.

Balance really need some work.

I don't know, I've gone up the ascensions pretty far and I never found it particularly troubling. But to each his own. What do you mean second type? The new character? I would imagine you unlocked them a long time ago. The game doesn't stop you to tell you you unlocked them. You just have to have gotten up to the 25th form on the previous character once. Which is in the trillions on points I think, but pretty easily doable in less than an hour even at lower ascensions. Not the base ascension, but 5 or so would be more than enough.

I will say that mechanically the second charcter is identical to the first. Just a 9-tails fox thing instead of an undead alligator thing.

Integer overflow probably.
