EPILEPSY WARNING


= Idle Particle Simulator =
(source code)

A game about particles and idling
the game is in VERY EARLY DEVELOPMENT thus the game is VERY UNBALANCED, would appreciate ANY feedback

1 Thing to note is that any cosmetic upgrade for the particles adds to their value

If you struggle with FPS, clicking the "V" key on your keyboard will limit the amount of particles drawn, that way you can still enjoy the game on low-end machines!
(Bottom Left tells you how many particles are being drawn)



= CHEATS =

(added this for fun <3)

SHIFT + R = Restart Game
SHIFT + T = Add a lot of money
SHIFT + Y = Add 1,000 particles

Just a minor bug report:

Right-clicking upgrades you have yet to purchase, toggles their effects when it shouldn't.

For example, you can toggle on Random Teleport and/or Remove bounds right from the start.

Hey, I appreciate the bug report, just fixed it, thanks for playing!

cool game

maxed every upgrade. it was a nice, quick game

Buying an upgrade automatically turns it on, even if it's turned off already, and being turn on this way makes it still show up as "Off" even though it's not anymore

(+1)

Fixed! Thank you for playing and reporting the bug!

(+2)

Love it, more like a old school desktop screen saver simulator, would love a way to turn it into one  once u have the desired upgrades/settings :D

Great game, i loved it, sadly my pc cn´t handle so much particles, but its  great and fun game!

(+2)

loving it. is there a way to adjust the fps, my laptop can only handle so much lol

(+1)

Added a way to limit particles drawn just now, that way you can get more fps just by clicking V! Thanks for the suggestion!

(+2)

Hey thanks a lot. Just glad to help

The game looks interesting from the screenshots, but the power system has to be one of the worst active elements I've ever seen in an idle game. You have to click constantly, and if you stop for even a second your power depletes incredibly rapidly. It's like the antithesis of idle lol

Fair enough, I've added it as a gimmick to see if it's something that I would want to keep or not, I've had 3 people tell me already that this mechanic is not it, so I would either have to build on it or remove it completely, Thanks for playing and leaving feedback!

This game would be much more enjoyable if the particle affects could be turned on/off, individually, without affecting the bonus/upgrade they give.

I was thinking about that too, I'll try to implement this feature some-way in the near future, Thanks for playing!
