Really polished and I had a good time for a while, but I'm bouncing off at exploration. The first section of the game is really fun where all the currencies build into each other and you have to choose which perks help you progress faster, but once you start exploring the first part of the game seems to become irrelevant and you're basically just waiting on time walls that seem pretty arbitrary, don't involve any strategy and your choices don't really affect your progression. Clones can explore for you, but having more clones doesn't make it faster and there's no training to improve it. You can shorten exploration time per location but only up to a certain point, but why even cap this bonus at all? There are rare artifacts that improve these time walls but only barely and they're gated behind the same time walls. Getting one artifact every 10 minutes that shortens the wait for the next artifact by .01 seconds isn't that compelling imo, and that's the best case, waiting 10 minutes for an artifact that improves a currency that doesn't even matter anymore by 1% is even less impactful. Maybe I'm just not at the point where you have choices to actually improve progression and if so lmk what I'm missing but idk
