But first Here is a link to a download of the game. If you get an error. Then your ahk version may be outdated (please tell me your ahk version if this happens because I've heard people saying that they did not encounter the version detection system telling them their ahk version is outdated.
And here is the full code. Warning, lot of code https://pastebin.com/UJtYKLnX
There is no idle progress. If you do nothing. The game does nothing other than autosaving and such.
Power is gained when clicking the mouse anywhere on your screen so you don't need to have the game selected. Some other methods of power become available after some time as well like moving the mouse.
So this game does in fact track the mouse anywhere which may sound suspicious in the eyes of many people. I have no intentions of doing anything malicious like saving people's passwords but you can easily check the code of the game and guarantee it for yourself.
look for the help tab to gain some info about how the game works. New entries get added as you make some progress through the game.
The game is currently in a very early but playable state. I havent really looked into how expensive the costs would be in the lategame so getting max levels of all upgrades might be impossible though the garden should give a solid edge to your production when optimized well.
The main reason I am posting this here is because I want people to take a look at the project and give me advice on what I should do to make it better. Espacially on how to make the code better So please leave feedback if you've got something to say about it.
Changelog
