Good game i liked it (: i think it is too easy to get lvl max, I hope that in the next update you add new things and more levels, the game is very entertaining and addictive (in the image I have about 10,000 bombs haha) keep it up.
Hey uhh, I wasn't able to find any other way to send a message to you other than here.
I'm wondering if you have been made aware of an issue related to save files in your game, in that they don't persist when you close the game. I kinda just want to know if this is intentional or non-intentional, and if so has it been fixed?
writing this down: if you get luck level 10 and use level 1 bombs, it weirdly feels like you get less money on average compared to luck 9 and level 1 bombs. Might be due to the percentages being distributed, not sure. Anyways reached the end of the demo!
edit nvm was getting 600K multiple times in a row due to really bad luck, yeah you get over 11m
though will admit still have not got quick cash's jackpot but yeah good game.
Honestly will say you might want to buff/nerf somethings.
Unless intentional, upgrading luck to level 4 and using scratch bot on the level 3 $20 mini scratches causes 1% chance for $30, 1% chance for $67, 28% chance for $133 and a broken 70% chance for ~$650.
Basically it gives no insentive to gamble with the quick cash, apple tree or that acursed lucky cat.
Also is the fan supposed to be useless? That it would "blow" scratch cards to the scratch bot instead of needing to drag them but it ended up doing nothing. So is it cosmetic?
The fan is not finished yet it does blow tickets towards the scratch bot but only while you press it. It will have more features and upgrades when it is done!
Love this!!! This is genuinely so much fun :3 I love how some tickets have bad effects making it strategic to scratch some only yourself rather than automating them!
I am a bit confused if the strength upgrade for the bot increases speed too? It's a bit unclear >.< Also would suggest a hover tooltip for upgrades, like the fan cuz I had no idea what I was buying- took me a hot minute to even figure out how to use it! which speaking of the fan does sorta just like a gimmick, though that would probably be fixed with just some upgrades for it!
The game does slow down massively around when you unlock the bomb but that's to be expected since it's in development and that's around where the current content ends, either way I did really enjoy this!! :3
That might be the least satisfying ending I've ever seen. Doesn't even look like it's a prestige mechanic. You just spend the time playing the game to fully lose. Yeesh.
Thank you for your feedback! We are currently working on a lot of stuff including prestige features and a lot more scratch-off’s for the full game
The ending has been changed to reflect that there is more content to come and allow players to continue scratching even when there is no more to unlock
Listen, this is a lovely lovely game in concept, but not only did this game soft lock me multiple times because it didn't allow me to buy plates and other scratchers when I clearly had the money for it, it also stopped responding and crashed on three separate occasions. I really hope this game gets fixed soon, cool game in concept and could really be turned into something amazing, but for now, I can barely get past the second lottery ticket.
Thank you so much for playing and all the feedback, we have been working on a fix for the soft locking that should be in the next update.
If it is possible we would love to know a little bit more about the crashes:
Did your play in the browser or the downloaded version?
If you play in the browser would you be able to send a screenshot of the console, so we can see the error that happens when the game crashes? (It should open if you press F12)
That's the thing though, I played on browser twice and it still crashed, the screen just turned white and it just stopped responding to my mouse. The same thing happened the downloaded version too, it just froze up and I could do nothing with it! Both occasions occurred after I upgraded my scratching size.
There's still a softlock if you have _negative_ money, which you can only do by cashing out a negative ticket - easiest fix is probably to just set any negative value tickets to zero.
Thank you for playing, and I'm happy you like it! Sorry about the crashes! If possible would you be able to send a screenshot of the console in the browser so I can see the error that happens when the game crashes? It should open if you press F12. You can also try to download the game, it should be more stable.
Warning:this paragraph may contain spoilers, so if you did not play or don't want to be spoiled, dont read this. I love how its possible to somehow get negative in certain games. Imo, i grinded apple trees until I got robot auto for next one because I actually got terrible results. I also got a couple of -1000s from robot doing apple tree, thats 5 worms on all. This is fun :) I think this is a good game, but while your playing, during certain points, you gotta question whether your luck is sky high or so bad that you lose all your money(Me). Also maybe its just me, but robot luck is much better then my luck. This is also pure curiosities sake but is it weighted chance or does everything have the same amount of chance.
Edit 2: Uh, is it just me or does black paw add 10k lol, doesnt that mean you cant lose money in Lucky Cat, (Edit 3), pls add the effects(lost money per stuff and add money per stuff for it, I just remembered because in Lucky Cat, I thought there were only 3 stuff)
Rating of all scratches OP ness and other stuff, idk why im doing this, probably because of free time
1. C-tier = 100 percent money but lowest value earned
2. Idk what it was so bad-memory tier
3. Small money - F tier, I lost so much money on it lol
4. A - tier - apple tree, 90% percent never gonna lose money except for the two times I somehow got 5 worms on one scratch table.
5. S - tier - lucky cat, its just currently really well because of the fact that one of the devs either is trolling me or simply forgot a minus sign causing no money loss and a lot of money gain, especially from that one pencil.
6. B - tier Bomb - uh, I found that if you do it manually, you basically earn nothing for a while unless you use robot. I really didn't like how you either broke even(70% of the time), or gained some money. The main reason this was B-tier for me was because of that small chance super large jackpot.
7. ?-tier - idk what to rate final item its just final item
All the ones I forgot go to bad-memory tier.
8.Best Tier - robot, it has much better luck then manual.
Some balance changes might be neccessary, else then that, really fun game. Also I kinda wish it was just mouse hovering that removed it. So I dont have to press my finger for a while. Really Good Game.
Thanks for playing! Seeing as a lot of people are enjoying our prototype we might make it a full game. There's a lot of potential for more fun ticket mini games, upgrades and prestige :D
2 things: 1) I LOVE the twist at the end. 2) It'd be nice to have some shortcut to move scratchers to the auto-scratcher. Towards the end, I was doing a lot of manual moving for something called "automation". Still worth it for the ending despite the wrist pain from moving so many things.
Nice improvements. Game plateaus pretty hard when you unlock The Bomb. Feeding the tickets to the autoscratcher gets kind of grindy, even after a few upgrades. And the game stops when out of focus.
Thank you! I've fixed the issue where the game is paused when out of focus. Yeah I agree about the plateu, we definitely want to add more unlocks and tickets to make the pacing better.
Great game! I love the risk that comes with certain cards going through the autoscratcher. My only issue is that it can take ages to move so many cards over to the autoscrathcer. For example when I bought 80 Quick Cash tickets and then had to sped forever putting them over. Perhaps an upgrade for a helper would make it less tedious while still making it a challenge and not just giving it to you? But this might just be me being lazy xD
Loved the game, its not slow as some guys are saying, its just how the game progress, they probably dont even buyed some speed upgrades, nice done man!
Thank you! We planned to add some upgrades that improve manual scratching but we didn't have enough time to implement them, might come in a future update :)
Really cool! I love the different scratch card mechanics.
I'm not sure how those interact with the autoscratcher, since I liked to peak at the contents before deciding to fully scratch or not. Maybe that's a good trade off for automation though! I think making the money automatically collect or cards automatically feed into the scratcher would be great extra upgrades.
I'd also love to see some upgrades for the player's skills (size/power of scratching) but maybe that'd need control too so you can still peak if you want to.
Thank you for playing! We really appreciate the detailed feedback!
There is currently a trade-off with using automation since it always scratches all the tiles including bad ones.
We planned to have more upgrades like improving the manual scratching and more automation upgrades but we ran out of time. We'll definitely revisit it in the future!
Feels better! But u dont need to use scratcher untill lvl3 trees, u dont need more then 1 speed upgrade Mb more balancing should be made or some another progression system?

that is awesome work dev! thx for it

Opened 1 lucky cat without thinking, and now I'm soft-locked :(
Try refreshing the page or closing and opening the game, that should fix it

LESS GO GAAAAAAMBLING!!!!

though will admit still have not got quick cash's jackpot but yeah good game.
Thank you so much for playing! Quick cash's jackpot(luck table) is bugged in the current version. It will be fixed in the next update
How much strength is needed for the scratch bot to finally scratch plates? On level 10 and it says it is still to low.
The plates have a hardness of 99999 so the scratch bot will need to be at level 99997 to start scratching them
thinking about that it would seem that that level is WAAAAAAAAAAYY past max level
day job definitely needs some sort of upgrade, then. especially considering that past mid-game, the day job is completely useless
Honestly will say you might want to buff/nerf somethings.

Played it through three times. I think you've updated the win chances as it seemed to be slightly harder to win.
Wishlisted on steam. I need more scratchcard games!
This is such fun on my android tablet.
This was really fun but way too short. I need more. I wishlisted on steam :)
Got 5 black cats on "lucky" cat. Yeeted that thing out like it never happened 😅
Welp my game rollbacked half an hour because of the page refreshing for this comment. Who needs an autosave, right?
Thank you for playing! Autosaving for the browser version should be working in the new update!
That might be the least satisfying ending I've ever seen. Doesn't even look like it's a prestige mechanic. You just spend the time playing the game to fully lose. Yeesh.

I got soft locked. I have 1 money and cant buy the day job for some reason
Thanks for the feedback, we're fixing the issue in the next update.

When you have negative money, you should go bankrupt and get a phone call. Is that not working?
This was a weird edge case, it's fixed in 0.5!
This has been fixed in the new update! :)
I love the game! Very addicting. I just wish I didn't have to reset every 20 minutes because it keeps crashing out of nowhere, but oh well :b

Awesome scratchy-idle-game!! Very adorable art and super satisfying gameplay <3
lost all of my progress to the bomb. fuck this game man.
partial scratch it and reveal the lights then fully scratch the ones you want
scratchers but free

if you get negative money on a card you can push the trash button and it deletes the card
Does it work on final?
Edit: I know it works on others, but I dont think it works on final.
Thank you for enjoying our game and all the feedback! This game where made for a game jam but we have decided to make it into a full game =)
We are currently working on an update that will address some of your issues and add more stuff
please revamp the bomb i just lost my progress
We are working on a lager update that adresses some of the issues we have and adds saveing and mutch more conten =)
aight
Suggestion to add a way to make the tickets auto go into the scratcher? Or have multiple scratchers
Thank you for the feedback! Moving multiple tickets at the same time or auto loading will definitely be prioritized for the next update
web version crashed when i opened the bomb. refresh wasted lost all progress. really hate when itch games dont auto save
Sorry about that, since we've only been working on the game for 1 week, saving hasn't been implemented yet. We're hoping to add it soon though
Would be a fun full game with more tickets and maybe a pretigeing ticket that gives random permanent upgrades
Thanks for playing! Seeing as a lot of people are enjoying our prototype we might make it a full game. There's a lot of potential for more fun ticket mini games, upgrades and prestige :D
still dont know what levels do?
Currently only something happens at level 1, after that it doesn't do anything yet
2 things:
1) I LOVE the twist at the end.
2) It'd be nice to have some shortcut to move scratchers to the auto-scratcher. Towards the end, I was doing a lot of manual moving for something called "automation". Still worth it for the ending despite the wrist pain from moving so many things.
Really needs a auto load upgrade and maybe a toggle auto buy
Thank you, I'm glad you like it! Moving multiple tickets at the same time or auto loading will definitely be prioritized for the next update
its not bad, which is bad. so thats good? anyway i really liked it!
Morally bad lol
I was a god until I bought some final shii😭🙏 (goty btw)
Thank you for playing!
Nice improvements. Game plateaus pretty hard when you unlock The Bomb. Feeding the tickets to the autoscratcher gets kind of grindy, even after a few upgrades. And the game stops when out of focus.
Thank you! I've fixed the issue where the game is paused when out of focus. Yeah I agree about the plateu, we definitely want to add more unlocks and tickets to make the pacing better.
We've just made a new update with the "Final Chance" ticket and lots of improvements! Hope you enjoy! :D
Great game! I love the risk that comes with certain cards going through the autoscratcher. My only issue is that it can take ages to move so many cards over to the autoscrathcer. For example when I bought 80 Quick Cash tickets and then had to sped forever putting them over. Perhaps an upgrade for a helper would make it less tedious while still making it a challenge and not just giving it to you? But this might just be me being lazy xD
auto scratcher doesnt work? not sure if a bug or im just doing something wrong, but i bought the auto scratcher and can't figure out how to use it
Your auto scratcher strength might not be upgraded enough. Higher tier tickets require more strength :)
Loved the game, its not slow as some guys are saying, its just how the game progress, they probably dont even buyed some speed upgrades, nice done man!
Thank you so much! :D
Really cute/fun! Although I agree that the scratching speed is probably too slow at the beginning
Thank you! We planned to add some upgrades that improve manual scratching but we didn't have enough time to implement them, might come in a future update :)

Promising idea, but I agree with the other comments that it is too slow.
I just uploaded a new version with some balancing changes, let me know if the pacing is better or you have other suggestions :)
Slow & Repetitive
I just uploaded a new version with some balancing changes, let me know if the pacing is better or you have other suggestions :)
Totally scratching that itch that real gambling does but without losing real money! Spent way too long playing this and bankrupted myself twice. Fun!
I'm glad you like it! Thanks for playing :D
Sadly slow and feels unfair (like real life)
I just uploaded a new version with some balancing changes, let me know if the pacing / fairness is better :)
Feels better! But u dont need to use scratcher untill lvl3 trees, u dont need more then 1 speed upgrade
Mb more balancing should be made or some another progression system?
