Note: if you close a tab and reopen later, it continues where you left off. So no need to lose sleep, it has localStorage :-)

Ha! I discovered this when I was spamming the mouse button on the QC, and accidentally hit the 'back' button (on the mouse). I was very afraid that all my hard work was gone. But a forward click brought it back.

This is so addictive. Been playing for an hour now. I wish there was a pause button.

You can close your browser and it will continue at roughly the current state next time you re-visit. (I knew this but it didn't really help :-O)

It did make me think that my browser should allow for me to pause a tab. Just pause the state of the JS

Full autonomy attained in 2 hours 55 minutes 58 seconds The strategy seems to heavily rely on investment, that seems not to my liking. I'd want to see purchase item to fully automate all sub-games to make the late game less tedious. One thing I think might be helpful: Make sure there is unsold inventory once you want to deposit to the stock market, to avoid stuck money generation and crushed stock market killing you.…

Just to make sure it's clear: Full autonomy attained is not where the game ends, it's just where the first stage ends.

Well I just stayed up all night playing this. RIP me. I enjoyed it a lot, though the gameplay during the final stage was less balanced and entertaining. Fantastic ending though!

How many $ did you make in the end? (Assuming the dollar still exists when you finish the game)
