The Final Novel by @TeddyNashor
Basically this is a combination of Cookie Clicker, and some silly Social Experiment. The game is my feeble 48 hour attempt at trying to make a social experiment game that feeds off of a skinners box so that people dont get incredibly board while participating in it.
The goal is to harvest materials, so that you can purchase words to type into the Global Story that is written by all the previous/current players. I imagine the story will turn into something terribly written, but thats the fun social aspect. Build Mines, Earn Resources, Recieve medals & Achievments, Write a Story With The World (or like the 10 people who will prob get far enough to write a word), Win!
I am currently working on a game called Trials Of Ascension. It is an Indy Sandbox MMO (I know right?, those buzzwords...) BUT its true, and hopefully I can turn it into something great :D! hopefully you will check that out too! :D!
do make sure you press enter as it says to remove that "help image" as you get into the game. (the gui still looks terrible, but if you dont close that it sucks more lol)

@AndyBrown That prob means you are desynced with the server, just refresh the page, re-login and it should work. Thanks!
One small, marginally ironic nitpick: there are a fair number of typos and misspellings in the intro text crawl.
Also as for the lvl 7, it should cost 55000, not sure why it says 20... I think the client and server have slightly different formulas? I believe I can fix minor bugs, as I think that is allowed in the rules? Ill check, otherwise, wait till 50k to press it. :P
What i liked :
- Big work achieved ! Very impressive.
- The idea of making a novel together.
- Everything is clear because explained when unfinished (no 'I don't know what it is')
What imo could be improved :
- Music (but I recognize the effort, it can be really hard to even have one xD)
- Remove unfinished work to achieve a more polished effect
Great overall, had fun reading (and writing :p) the novel so far !
