This patch is primarily for bugfixes and some minor improvements!

Code 'time' revamp!

Code 'time' is no longer a game of luck, but instead a game of timing. When you click on the button to redeem this code, or manually type it in the promocodes box, you will be given the following message:

Are you a bona fide time teller? Let's find out. If you can click the button between [LOWER_BOUND] and [UPPER_BOUND] seconds after pressing 'OK', You win [NUM_1] Quarks! Due to how long it has been since your last attempt, the rewards are multiplied by [NUM_2].

Clicking the CANCEL button will not consume your time attempts. Pressing the OK button starts the game. You must then press the OK button again within the range of times provided to you (this range will be displayed while the game is in progress for your convenience). If you press the OK button a second time within the stated range, you win! Because you are given the time bounds ahead of time, a master of time can win this minigame every time! Changes:

  • The tolerance for 'time' is now 1,000ms (1 second). A random number from 6 to 21 is selected. If you press 'OK' within 1 second, either early or late, you win! (So, without any upgrades there is a two second window)

  • Cookie Upgrade 11 adds 25ms of tolerance per level, expanding the window by 50ms. The final level guarantees the rewards, even if you don't win under the rules of the game. You can still play the game if you want, though.

  • The base Quark reward is reduced from 125 to 25, because you can now always win the minigame.

  • You gain +5 Quarks as a base per highest Singularity, without limit.

  • Removed the diminishing returns on the Quark reward (This is a buff for lategame players).

Stats for Nerds improvement!

  • Fixed the alternating highlighting lines in each stat box. They are now actually alternating!

  • If a stat line does not contribute to the running total of that stat, then you no longer see it! There are a few exceptions, namely PseudoCoins ( )

Balance/QoL

  • ONE MIND and HALF MIND now give a 1,000,000x fixed speed, instead of 10x.

  • HALF MIND now gives half of the ONE MIND event bonus when such an event is active.

  • REMOVED THE QUADRATIC PENALTY FOR GLOBAL AND ASCENSION SPEED . Yes, even if you don't have the MIND upgrades.

  • Potions and Auto Obtainium no longer scale from Reincarnation Timer.

  • Ant Sacrifice no longer scales from Reincarnation Timer.

  • "Wow! A box of Perfect Cookies" has only one level. The Oct. Formula is 1.016^(TotalLevel + 8 * FreeLevels).

  • Removed the Threshold Campaign Token reward.

  • Plutus and Athena Cube Blessings are now uncapped!

  • AoAG Obt/Off bonus no longer have any diminishing return!

  • Bells give more tips if consumed when Bells are active! +15 per active Bell. This counts even if the other Bells were activated by you!

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed exploits with Golden Quark gains on Singularity reseting via elevator.

  • Fixed Asc. Chal. displaying until you leave the current one.

  • Fixed 2x Spirit from Asc Chal. affecting resets when you enter the Challenge.

  • "A tin of Fortune Cookies" now gives 2x the normal Statues from all sources!

  • Fixed weird Modal quirks in Ants Quark info.

  • You should no longer get Quark Upgrade confirmations if you have those disabled.

  • You can't buy the double OMEGA calculator without having enough Exalt 3 completions anymore.

  • Auto Obt/Off Quark Upgrades now have red backgrounds on non-legacy iconsets.

  • Auto Obt now correctly reduces Research Costs!

  • On high Singularities, Researches no longer tell you to buy a negative level for negative Obtainium in some circumstances.

  • The Athena Cube Blessing now displays the actual multiplier.

  • Tips info text is now grammatically sensible.

  • Fixed duplicate function calls when importing saves (major fix!).

  • Game Stages are updated for the new EXALT order.
