"At CollectorCorp™, we pride ourselves on maintaining the highest standards of ethical gathering. It is important to note that our Collectors do not, under any circumstances, 'kill,' 'slay,' 'dispatch,' or 'bonk on the head' individuals. Such terminology is outdated, misleading, and frankly, a bit rude.

Instead, we engage in the dignified practice of Collecting™ — a consensual, market-tested, spiritually aligned relocation process. All collected individuals are treated with the utmost respect, carefully stacked, filed, and occasionally dusted for posterity. Independent studies (conducted by our own marketing division) confirm that being Collected is 87% more enjoyable than being left lying about in the mortal coil.

Rest assured: Collecting is not only moral, it’s downright polite. After all, who wouldn’t want to be part of a well-curated collection?"

How to play:

Collect as many souls as you can! FAST! It is the ONLY way to get your pension and leave CollectorCorp™, to finally be able to reap in peace! Click on them to collect, upgrade your tools, employ the collected souls to help you.

Hehe I had a chuckle reading the description :grin:
Congratz on your first LD entry @NasOnCrack!

Hereby my feedback / questions in no particular order :-)
- Is there a difference between the diffrent colored souls?
- I like the different kinds of upgrades. Some "assisting", some affecting spawn rates and some just better tools
- The window for buying upgrades does not close by itself, while I can still ~slay~, ehh.. collect
- I love the background art !

This was great. I'll admit it took me an embarrassingly long time before I realized it was going to be an idle game, but it made me smile once I put it together. Nice upgrades. As with any idle game, it's always a guessing game how many more upgrades there are and how long you want to play. Nice job team!
