Fifth Minor Update

This starts to feel like a diary...

This update changes exp and growth at higher levels, more concretely, once level 150 is reached the exp required for the next level will not increase. This fixes a late game issue related with very very big numbers (300 digits+). Hope it feels okay, if not, as always, let me know here:

That's all for now.
Enjoy!

Fourth Minor Update

Third Minor Update

This update fixes a few things:
  • a bug in windowed mode where mouse co-ordenates where wrongly tracked.
  • Steam screenshots are now implemented (you can take one by pressing F12).
  • Fixed a bug related to viewing friend scores on the leaderboards.


That's all for now.

THE GYM BROS UPDATE

Dear players,

I am thrilled to announce the release of the first major update to the game! This update includes multiple balance fixes, as well as exciting new content and features.

[h2]New Content[/h2]
This update introduces the ability to recruit "gym bros," which allows you to unlock more biceps to workout at the same time. This leads to increased volume and repetition points. Additionally, we have added two new ascension perks that boost and prolong the salt effect.

[h2]Cosmetics[/h2]
You can now customize the appearance of your arms with "skins." There are four skins available from the start, with an additional three to be unlocked by recruiting new gym bros.

[h2]Future Updates[/h2]
I have plans for a future update focused on customization. This update will include a Steam Workshop feature that allows you to create and share your own custom skins for arms and weights, among other exciting tweaks.

[h2]Balance[/h2]
There have been significant changes to the game's balance, particularly with regard to ascension prices and effects. These are now exponential, making the late game more engaging. Straps are no longer useless in the late game, and salt is now more powerful, with the ability to be upgraded with ascension points.

Thank you for playing the game, I hope you enjoy this update!

Second Minor Update

This update fixes and adds a few things.

New Feature:
  • Some of you have requested a window mode, that has been added to the game, you can toggle between, borderless, window, and fullscreen mode. You can do so from the settings menu, or by pressing "F" on the keyboard.


Fixes:
  • There has been a correction of a visual bug where the amount of R/S and KG/S was misscalculated
  • Fixex the leaderboards position bug
  • Improved menu navigation by being able to close any menu by clicking outside the banner
  • Balance update for price and effect of the 3 volume upgrades (might change again based on late game behaviour)


Finally I wanted to talk about cheaters and the leaderboard, I have banned a few users from posting their scores on the leaderboard (users that were clearly cheating). I do not have any problem with autoclickers or even cheating as long as it doesn't affect other players, in this case, the leaderboard ranking. I do not see a clear solution for this issue, and will explore other possibilities in the future.


That's all for now,
Thanks again for all the support for this game, I am really happy with the launch
