I went to bed, woke up, and still can't afford the 20 trillion cookies I need for my next time machine. And that's just for number 87. If you're at this point, you need to play the golden cookie game and be floating 18,000 times your CPS. 30 minutes of production every 5 minutes or so.

Anyone know if you do a reset and keep your achievements, do you keep your milk?

Why would anyone like these games?

My cookies have brought me beyond the need for such trivial matters as "controls" or "game-design." There is only the click. There is only the cookie.

Apparently I have over 200% milk. It now reads as raspberry juice.

How do you get milk? I have milk. Want more milk.

So do the 5% upgrades stack to 20% or is it 5% of the total with any previous 5% upgrades? This is important.

The game really does slow down once you reach time machines. I think once you run out of new building types to aim for costs continue rising exponentially while income rises linearly.

Getting to 160 cursors is going to take a while, though.

I had 160 cursors, then I sold them to get the base 10 achievement. That probably wasn't the best decision.

I've sold everything except my time machines, which was probably an even worse decision. E: I was pretty close to 160 cursors too.

What do you guys want 160 cursors for? "The Digital" is 200, and they sure as hell ain't economical.

160 cursors unlocks the final(?) cursor upgrade that gives you +x cookies per second/cookies per click for every building you have

Bash Ironfist posted:Are granma's worth keeping? Are there things not worth investing money into? 100 is the achievement for each one, but you honest to god don't want anything more than that because they get crazy expensive for zero bonus unless you have thousands of cursors Spend it all on Time Machines instead, especially when you get their upgrades maxed out

It seems the makers of the game hapharardly assigned prices and benefits to the items with very little thought. Obviously, the game is a giant grind but the pricing makes no sense whatsoever. Also the exponentially increasing prices without exponential growth in cookies is pretty unsatisfying. I tend to play grindy toss-away browser games a bit (mostly Flash stuff on Kongregate - Penguin, Bison, Knightmare Tower, etc) and those typically feature a slow start grind followed by a period of decent purchasing power that pushes the game towards completion. Cookies just seems to want you to leave your browser open. There's seriously nothing to do but wait, and that wait is over the course of about a day. Without the surprise gameplay of Darklit Room, or the expanse of Candybox (which I thought sucked rear end) there's no point in leaving your browser open. Yes, you are a completionist and want those acheivements. Guess what? If you leave it on, you'll get them. There's nothing to it, but time. I understand it's time spent on other stuff, but it's pointless because there's no purpose to the grind. I was playing Neverwinter Online at launch. I wasn't into the game, but it had profession skills where you could log in daily and get some xp/progress. So as I stopped playing, I kept logging in daily for about 3 days keeping up with my professions... then it hit me; I wasnt interesting in playing Neverwinter Online, I just got sucked into the grind due to the it's easy-drop-in factor. Cookies has the same problem. You can drop in easily enough as often or as un-often as you like, but there's no reason to do either. The game is just empty. I left it on overnight after seeing this thread, bought stuff when I got home, saw that I couldn't afford anything at all after that, and closed the tab. It needs some work to be interesting. play Darklit Room instead.

I feel like I had stuff to do today but now I've been warped into some kind of cookie induced psychosis and can't think of anything else besides these loving cookies.

Shut the gently caress up and make some more cookies.
