The style of a minimalist interface that starts sprouting things, somewhat ASCII-game-ish yet also rather dynamic, reminds me a bit of Candy Box: http://candies.aniwey.net/ . It's an interesting UI and 'reveal' style for a game, and glad to see another one using it. Feels somewhat refreshing.

edit: Ah ok, if you view-source it mentions Candy Box as an inspiration.

And Frog Fractions is worth checking out if you like Candy Box.

[endgame]

Frog Fractions is worth checking out, full stop.

Jesus, this is amazing.

[MrBra]

how does it even relate to Frog Fraction ?

[siddboots]

Frog Fraction does not relate to things.

It is just worth mentioning from time to time.

[MrBra]

That's your opinion.

[jmilloy]

I don't get it. I liked A Dark Room and Candy Box, but hated Frog Fractions, which is completely unrelated.

[shardling]

They're related in the sense that the type of gameplay changes and unfolds as you progress.

Frog Fractions is much more linear, I suppose. You move from one game type to the next, instead of having multiple in parallel.

To anyone else trying Candy Box, a few hints to get started:

- Wait until you have 60 candies (new options appear)

- Click the cowboy hat 4 times

- Buy the wooden sword

You can also click on the lollipop to lower the prices.

If you want to cheat, open the devtools, and type candies.nbrOwned = Infinity.

Isn't this a lot closer to dwarf fortress?
