Personally, I liked it a lot.
- Yes, there is a lot of grind... but that is quite the essence of this kind of games . And on the bright side you always have something happening (the restart generators even if..., the breaks of the machine, of the flask, etc.) so I find it quite smooth.
- "Some characters are only for subscribers". Come on, it is free so to let the persons who pay have more characters make totally sense, and the free part is already quite large.
Some suggestions:
- having a button "morning routine", to eat breakfast and take the shower with one click. I have no problem to grind, but click to click... And make 6 clicks every morning for "nothing", I find that very boring. Plus as already said there is a problem with the durations of those actions: if you do only one, you have no other choices but to arrive at work at 9h15. So you lose a full hour of production.
Either a "wait 15 min" button, or a button "be at work at 9h", usable if it is less than 8h30 (possibly linked to the morning routine...).
- the "restart generators". It is quite a good idea because it offers a short scene, even if you are trying to produce a lot... but 4 clicks to be back at the same point as you were at the beginning. It seems you try to avoir the scrolling, but I personally to scroll a bit that clicking a lot (by the way, very good job, the buttons are quite always at the same place, so it is easy to fast forward some sequences already seen.
- Oh, and I don't see the point of the café and the restaurant, besides spending more money for the same thing currently.
- When It is 18 and you are kicked off the company, why not directly be in the city map?
I am not a subscriber but when I see the amount of work... I am tented. Looking forward to see the next episode.
