So I just started the game a little while ago, and I don't seem to be going all that fast. I have 2 billion cookies and about 1 million cps. Is there a trick I'm missing?

after you make a couple time machines it speeds up for a while. Then slows way the gently caress down.

Welp, the last 20 grandmas and time machines will take me around 20 days with no golden cookie clicks. Since the dungeons will probably hit earlier than that, guess I'm done till they're in.

Edit: The 100 time machines cheevo is from 1.026, the first implementation of milk. The numbers went a wee bit crazy with around 10b cps.

The latest Nerdł video features Cookie Clicker. I think that it describes the experience rather well:

What do you have to do to unlock the last clicker upgrade? Only one I am missing. And what is the last achievement after Elder Slumber?

Offer 5 pledges total. There's also the shadow achievements that will appear after those two, but they're all optional.

I think I'm gonna kick this guy a few bucks when I get home, half because I feel like I've played enough of this drat game to warrant paying a few dollars for it, and the other half because I want to see if its true that the Cookie Goddess only comes to those who have paid their tithe :unsmigghh:

Mouse gains 1% cps upgrades? I believe you need to click the cookie for x amounts. I've unlocked them on an elder frenzy, I think. Last achievement is for turning on the elder covenant. Turn it on, then off, there's no need to have covenant on at all.

The cookies, they speak to me. They demand sacrifice, they demand penance. The only way to appease the cookies is more cookies, which must then be appeased. ALL WILL BE COOKIE.

from http://cookieclicker.wikia.com/wiki/Cheating

This will enable a countdown in the title bar, indicating when the next golden cookie will spawn, so you don't have to have that tab open all the time. I don't really consider it cheating. Anyways, open your browser's console (ctrl+shift+J on chrome and just copy and paste the code below). Golden (or the red Elder) Cookies can have several effects, from increasing your Cps or granting additional Cookies, among others. Once in a while they'll start a Golden Cookie chain, where Cookies will spawn back to back, granting 6, 66, 666... and so on Cookies every click, up to 6 trillion I think.

quote:

Show Golden Cookie delay in Title bar
code:
setInterval(function() {
	document.title='(' + Math.floor(Game.goldenCookie.delay / Game.fps) + ' s) '+Beautify(Game.cookies)+' '+(Game.cookies==1?'cookie':'cookies');
}, Math.floor(500/Game.fps));



I'm up to the last 2 achievements, 200 cursors and 100 time machines. I wonder what my life will feel like after that, since I feel like I'm nearing the end of the road. Thankfully the last 20 time machines will take a while, but I do hope Dungeons come out soon and will provide another endgame. Otherwise I might have to reset and get the neverclick achievements.

This is about where I'm at too. I have 172 cursors, 150 grandmas, and 64 time machines. I also need the Eclipse and Zebra cookies, but apart from that I have pretty much everything. I hope dungeons will last a long time as an endgame and maybe provide an alternate way to fight back grandmatriarchs without sacrificing CpS.

How does the uncanny clicker achievement trigger? I can register like 10-12 clicks per second on my mouse and it doesn't pop up... how loving fast do you have to click to make that poo poo happen?

It's a joke achievement. It's not supposed to be gotten. Doesn't count for milk, either. It doesn't say "world record" for nothing.

You'd have to click about 25 times per second to get it, i think.

I've got it but I have no idea how. I can only assume the game froze up and all my clicks during that time got counted the second it unfroze.

:cheers: for this. I spend more time tabbed out than tabbed in, so this little boost is nice. I also don't see it as cheating, because I imagine most don't tab back in every 30 seconds to see if there's a golden cookie.

...I've been spending the last two days watching a number in a tab title rise and making it rise faster...the gently caress is wrong with me.

Seriously. If you have not visited their CookieClicker thread, do so now. I believe the current spreadsheet for purchase optimization originated from there among other tips and tools

Tip I learned from that thread: Selling all of your Grandmas can undo the Grandmapocalypse.

The spreadsheet originated there, yeah. The newest version of the spreadsheet can even import your stats from your save.

Also, Orteil posts stuff about the game on his tumblr, which is also linked on the game page itself - was the source of grandmapocalypse removal.

You only return 51% of the cost per building when you sell, unfortunately. It's going to kill your Cps if you do that though! Don't do it!
