Game Description

This seemingly simplistic game provides a deeper experience than many incrementals. It provides a simple interface comprised of a number of progress bars, each representing a different type of resource. The player must gather enough money to hire a number of workers to produce raw materials, then hire several more workers to sell products made of those materials. It's a careful balancing game designed to make you decide which resource is more important to make the biggest profit.

The Premise
In Progress Bars, your goal is to run an international conglomerate company and make oodles of cash. To accomplish this, you're gonna need some workers. But before that, you'll need some cold, hard cash.

Making Money
  1. Click the Earn Money button to start generating income.
  2. Once you have enough money, buy your first Worker.
  3. Put this worker on wood-gathering duty by clicking the + button next to Wood.
  4. Watch! The worker will slowly gather wood, increasing your supply.
  5. Now get a few more workers and allocate them to Wood and Forest.
  6. You'll notice that Wood will get a 2x synergy bonus. This happens when you have some supply of Forest when your workers gather Wood.
  7. After a little while, you'll unlock Commodity Sales. Put some workers into sales.
  8. Every time the sales bar fills up, your workers will transport 50% of the supply of each resource into the sales warehouse.
  9. Next time when the sales bar fills up, your workers will sell 50% of the supply that is in the sales warehouse itself.
  10. Continue playing and see what you can discover!

Nodes
There are 4 different types of nodes:
  • Biomes - like the Forest
  • Resources - like Wood and Rubber
  • Sales - like Commodity Sales
  • Tools - like Cut Tools

Quadrants
The game is divided into four quadrants. Each quadrant focuses on a specific Biome. The first biome to be unlocked is Forest.
Each biome has two resources associated with it, and also receives bonuses from two types of tools.

Synergy Bonuses
Synergy bonuses are awarded when you meet certain conditions. Each resource can receive several synergy bonuses:
  • 2x from the nearby Biome node
  • 2x from the nearby Biome node when that Biome has 80% supply or more
  • 2x from the nearby Tool node
  • 2x from the nearby Tool node when that Biome has 80% supply or more

The maximum synergy bonus at the start of the game is 16x.

Experience, Level, and Sales Multiplier
Each node has a level. The level raises slowly over time as workers work there.
When a Tool, Biome, or Resource node gains a level: 1) the unit price of the goods in that node go up, 2) your sales multiplier increases by 0.05x.
When a Sales node gains a level: 1) the node gains 10 more max supply, 2) your sales multiplier increases by 0.10x.
Your sales multiplier affects the sale rate of all of your resources, so improving it is critical to generating tons of money.

A Dark Room

A Dark Room - Play Idle Game
RPGA Dark Room creates a roguelike experience within the incremental genre. It starts the game as a very simplistic interface, providing a single button to progress, but quickly integrates multiple resources, building construction, equipment, and more. It is available in both browser and iOS.ResourcesThere are a wide range of resources that become available to the player as the game progresses. Notably, wood quickly becomes the most important, as it is required to keep the fire burning and to construct buildings. Other resources that come into player later on include meat for curing (which can then be used to keep the player fed during expeditions), leather, and steel.BuildingsHuts are just the first building that become available, and will allow the player to receive population to help support the player's campsite. People that have moved into huts can be assigned jobs, from gathering wood to mining for coal. These jobs all produce resources, while some will also consume them. Raw meat, for example, will be consumed when producing cured meat.EquipmentThe player will be given the option of crafting equipment. There is a long list of items available to make, but they include weapons, armor, bags to carry more goods when on an expeditions, water reservoirs to carry more water, and more. These become vital to the progression of the player late game.Alternatively, some items can be found while out on expeditions. Swords, guns, bullets, and more can be found from either felled enemies or hidden caches.ExpeditionOnce the player has received a compass, they will be able to go out on an expedition. While out, the player must maintain enough food and water to ensure that they don't die. Water is consumed once ever step, while cured meat is consumed once every 4.The player may randomly encounter enemies while outside the safety of the camp. As the player progresses further and further away, the enemies become stronger and faster, meaning that the player must ensure that they have enough skill to defend themselves. This will generally consist of arming themselves with better weapons (such as rifles).Houses, caves, mines, and more can be found while out. If the player clears a location of enemies and reaches the end, they will generally be rewarded with a cache of items. This can include meat, but may also hold rarer items such as steel swords or grenades. Once the location has been cleared, it may be turned into a safehouse. Once a safehouse has been established, it will populate with a random amount of cured meat for the player to collect while out travelling. A safehouse can only be visited once per trip and will automatically replenish the player's water supplies.Roads will be made from the safehouse back to the camp. While on roads, the player will not be attacked at all.
