Pending Approval

The gameplay felt unrewarding as the prestige elements are more like incremental tech tree upgrades than starting the game over upgrades, after five or six hours I sort of lost tolerance for it. You can't let it idle - the upgrade that makes you not have to come back to click every five or so minutes doesn't auto select a bonus so it still holds up waiting for you. It seems like the fastest way to progress is to not prestige often as well, so it mostly stays the same game all the way though. Great humor though, UI is difficult to read, I don't know if that's vibe coding or just unoptimized UI, but early on it's just trying to find what numbers are doing what where. Fun humor for an hour or two, though! Just, definitely unpolished and a bit tricky to find the fun in the work once the humor wears off.

Idle & Incremental Lovers recommends Pending Approval, with some caveats: [i] A decent simple first game for this solo dev. Absurd humor fitting the absurdity of bureaucracy and good balance between active and idle play. UI could definitely use some improvements, though.[/i] + It's a simple game, nothing groundbreaking but all the basics are there (idle and active play, prestige, numbers go up...). + Absurd humor everywhere (in the forms, upgrades, bottom of the screen...). - Big readability problem. Even when choosing the biggest font, the characters are way too small, and sometimes the colors are too similar to the background. This really ruins the enjoyment, as you don't want to stick your face to the screen to be able to read the jokes or see the big numbers! - Having your cursor transforming into a stamp feels strange for the first few minutes, as this is the bottom of your cursor/stamp that now triggers the click. It becomes less of a problem once you get used to it. - Achievements hunter, be careful: you will have to start over if you didn't get all the achievements before the ending. And the ending comes abruptly, there is no warning. - Talking about achievements, they a…

A nice idea game and the form design is nice but the UI is awful and it plays really bad, got to the end buying all upgrades tried to ascend and I get stuck on a stupid denial screen. Going to have to start fresh to 100%.

Fun idle game about beurocracy. Click, buy things that click for you, get skill points, asend so the skill points take effect, rinse and repeat. There is a decent story about you slowly becoming a boss. Great fun game.....however..... My main complaint, getting the ending takes FOREVER. A great idle game has good pacing. Yes its a grind, but you get incremental increases every once and a while. This game does that.....for the first 3/4 or so. You can get through 3/4 of the game and fill out about half the skill tree very easily and within about 7-8 hours. The second half of the skill tree takes FOREVER. Especially because every "day" (about 5-10 minutes) you HAVE to click on an upgrade, even when you automate almost everything else.
