Since S&F is not your grandmas frivoluous time-wasting clicker game, it needs numbers well above that limit.. So we get floats all over

Thanks backstab


Also, can the merchant offer you a bonus you already purchased?

Like if it offers me again the x2 speed to the first slot, do i get 200% bonus?

Leander,

Getting this frequently, as others have reported.

Yesterday I got it once, today got it 4 times in 3 hours

Touche (Unity's WebGL always compiles into javascript, as you've said). Still, this is a pretty basic kind of bug - even a small set of unit tests should reveal it. Rounding the money is not such a problem, considering how fast they're being mined, the runes, however, are a whole different story and should be fixed ASAP.

Did they even beta tested this new content?

This better be a bug otherwise how are you suppose to get to 1000 to get the runes enchanted mighty gear.

Personally, i got the right amount of runes after the sacrifice

It is the same rounding issue that gives you 1 rune when clicking "Sacrifice" although 2 are displayed (as you only have 1.9something).

Isnt the prize, even for a permanent boost a little too much? Today i got offered boosts for 75 mushrooms and i guess tommorow it will be 100? That's just too much even for me.

I will give my point of view on the arena.
I think one of your devs was a fan of clicking heroes but Playa Games is definitely not Playsaurus.

First, let us talk about the figures that make no sense. At Playa Games 3 + 3 = 5...
Because yes this morning I reset my arena. Result on my first 2 round at 3 dollars I got 5 dollars...
Then when I had 8 dollars to pay for my upgrade to 8 dollars I couldn't because obviously I didn't have enough money.
So let's summarize.... 3 + 3 = 5 and 8 ≠ 8... Guys really? Do some test before releasing this kind of things, look like you release it fast only to get some more mush from players…

Talking about mushroom…
At Playa Games you have totally lost the sense of reality. Because yes, not all players are cash cows who put 2000e per month into the game.
Your boosts...
1st boost 25 mush, ok.... 2nd boost on the same machine, 50 mush.
I say to myself, okay. The first boost on a machine is 25 and the second is 50. That is 75 mush for full up a machine.
This makes a total of 1500 mush for the 20 upgrades. That is 50e, the price of an AAA game when it is released...
It's high but we're used to it on this game.
It would have been better to have 25 mush per boost, for a total of 500 mush and 17e. What is already high, is the price of a very good steam game...

And although she wasn't my surprise this morning when I saw that the next up on a machine I haven't yet boosted was 75 mush...
So for each new boost it is +25 mush. In the end, this means a cost of 5250 mush for the 20 boosts.
This represents 175 euros. 175 euros! Have you lost your mind completely? 175 euros guys, that's the price of a plane ticket to go on holiday in Italy, Malta, Greece. That's the price of a second-hand ps4.... This is the average food budget of one European per month.

Oh and talking about crazy boost… The 7 day boost, did you see the advantage it gave compare to the permanent boost? I guess your devs don’t play and test S&F, the only things you have in mind guys it’s how to get more money from players.
