Zone Idle

IDK what happened... but every time I open the game it just... reloads? Like, reloading the page, and takes me to the menu screen every like.. 3 seconds... even if I am on the menu or don't touch anything :C

Huh... so you can have unstable matter outside of the mirage... interesting...

I figure this is a bug?

The new music is great, but I actually really enjoyed the other music from before the update. Could we possibly get it back at some point? Maybe as a "purchase" in the shop? I loved the creepy vibe of it.

Very nice game!
I think the minigames are ok, although they might get boring at some point, so it's still good to know that I can skip them with some upgrade.

I first felt cheated that some minigames don't give you time to understand what's going on before the timer runs out (e.g. the cash registers and the bombs) but I eventually liked it: it gives a sense of urgency and makes the first encounters with them difficult until you get it, which is satisfying.

Otherwise, I face an annoying bug. I've had my hideout button and the medstation section inside blinking since the beginning. I can't upgrade it because I have no soap and have not seen a single soap so far (I'm level 25 and only raid in the first 2 areas). Since I died during the tutorial, I suspect that I've lost a soap that may have been given to me at the start and will never be seen again. I suggest changing the requirements for the medstation to not need a unique item if that's the case.

Keep up with the good work :)

Great game but I do have some issues with the loop of the gameplay.  I feel that you should add more quests or increase xp gains because once i got past level 20 it to ages to level up and no more quest with the current traders avalible.  I also felt stuck in the cordon, My gear wasnt good enough to go to the red woods or labs, but  I feel i couldnt do factory raids often due to rads, i would bring two sets of uncommon rad pills and would have to leave 3 to 4 minutes in and i also had 50 rad protction. One more  thing I disliked was the loot rooms where u needed a key, i find that i didnt find the random encounters that often and the loot was mediorce. also one last thing is I feel you should be able to put on gas masks on with a helmet. sorry for the crazy amount of yapping. also how in the hell does the triangulate mini game works

I was excited about the text-based / standard view, but the tutorial requires right-clicking, drag-and-drop, and timed minigames. That makes the game inaccessible for keyboard-only and screen reader users.

I would remove the poorly interfaced minigame.  It should be about decisions, not how well we manually handle odd controls.

Now way you actually added the drone thingy!
Dude seeing it fleshed out is so damn cool!

Do you think it would be okay for me to like throw together a Gdoc to put like my own ideas for dialogue coming from the combat feed thingamabob? 

(P.S. this is where I discovered 'thingamabob' is considered a real word)

Can confirm the 'can't drag' bug is very much so still in the game
Doesn't appear to be crashing the whole browser off rip, which is an improvement at least. For now

ok as I play I have come to a opinon. the game as it is I do not want to play. mostly becuase of the mini games they just pop up with no guide. I had a lot of good gear and had to leave early one mission because a minigame failed when I had no idea what to do. if your going to base the game off of completing minigame you have to tell player how to play the minigames

how exactly am I supposed to handle the decryption minigame. As far as I have experienced there is no guide to show how it's done  

After a while, some bug happens, and it stops allowing me to drag things.
What's worse, is that it doesn't just break the game, it breaks the whole browser, because you become unable to drag things outside of the game too, and it (the browser)  eventually crashes.

2nd time this has happened to me, both looking in my stash, don't believe I was pressing any other button (such as shift) when it started either time. (Win 11, Chrome)

In general, the game is a little slow, takes too long to get to automation, and it feels like minecraft in regards to how tiny the inventory is. Will keep playing, because it does seem like a good game - but getting sick of the crash for sure

A little gameplay. a little critique ;)

Hey I effectively made this account to post comments

So, do you have any plans for things like Scav Rep and/or scav/scav violence?

when I dead in scav, i lost my all stash items and equipment.

That's like data wipe.

also my career too.

I kept my lvl, cash, hideout upgrades(stash upgrade doesn't working).

The game is currently unplayable for me (playing on Firefox). I see something for a moment as the page is loading, but then it disappears and all I can see is the scan-line effect.

Passive recovery has stopped and the adrenaline timer no longer counts down from 180s after training. Is this a bug?

Fun little sim. Few suggestions.

It'd make for a bit longer gameplay loop overall if gear wasn't fully repairable forever like it is. Max durability should probably go down each time an item is repaired so that players have to actually use the new legendary helmets they keep finding instead of just selling them, or if I couldn't have just used the gauss rifle I pulled from like the third time I rolled the wheel for the entire rest of the game...lol

This is a big change to gameplay so it probably needs some testing, but I'd make the "risk" indicators more vague. Instead of -48hp if this fails, it'd simply say "moderate risk" for anything between, say, -40 and -60hp. "High risk" for -60 to -90. "Very high risk" for like 90+, but don't give away too much info here, let there be some stakes sometimes. Even if you have 135 max health, even if there's a 90% chance you won't take that damage, things don't always go as planned in extraction shooters...make the player just a bit unsure about clicking that fire button over a safer option, instead of knowing 100% that if they do lose the roll they'll have exactly 2 hp left and can just heal right up. I'm not sure the big hits from "turning the corner" in the lab line up with this as they are or as this is written though, things like that would likely need some rebalancing.

A loot filter would be nice. I don't even want any of the green/blue stuff anymore, I'd rather just auto-drop it. Maybe make it value-based so I can set it at 10k and it won't auto-drop a keycard or something.
Another option would be a window that pops up for each item over the inventory screen with a Keep and Toss button. Continue to put the items in the inventory and don't pause the game, just keep stacking those windows up until the player clicks through them all. Bring up a second confirmation window when tossing items over a certain value, let the player choose what that value is. Give the option to enable/disable this feature if they'd rather just keep everything. 
You can kindof do this already on the "live" feed now, if you've selected an inventory space and dropped an item already, the description for the next item you pick up will automatically open and you can just press drop if you don't want it or drag it to an empty space if you do. 

It'd be nice if when your inventory was full you had the option to swap something in your inventory for whatever you've just looted instead of just losing the new loot...lost out on an orange a while ago during an extract ambush because my bag was full. My fault, should've seen that coming, but I had blues in my inventory I would've just swapped for the orange if I had the option. 

Doesn't feel good to have unsolvable minesweeper puzzles. I just had one with 3x coin flips in it... 

This is an incredibly fun lil game, thank you!

Balance is wonky, but fun enough for an hour
