i looked at the market tutorial and it did not tell me how to make a listing. how do i make a listing? i dont have any market cards. there's nothing that lets me make a market card. is the tutorial broken?

edit: you can't sell water. the game tells you to sell something right after you have only made water, so it seems like it wants you to sell water.

pollikk_studios2 days ago

I will be sure to make it more clear that you have to unlock another resource before you can make a listing.

The ai banner is not it chief lol.

pollikk_studios7 days ago

yup, just a placeholder, i am working on the new banner

Pixel Game Maker Awards7 days ago

Coolll. No hate btw, this looks really cool, was just sayin lol.

pollikk_studios7 days ago

Glad to hear it! Thank you for the nice comment

Trobonkulous18 days ago(+1)

If someone would reply to this when the ai slop gets replaced, that'd be lovely. I'm not going to try the game until that happens

pollikk_studios18 days ago

As mentioned in the notes, the only ai generated content currently in the game is the sound and music. I already have new audio assets from an artist, and these will be implemented in the next update over the coming weeks.

maditchio17 days ago

And the banner art?

pollikk_studios17 days ago

yes, but i do consider that to be outside the game

maditchio16 days ago(+2)

Its literally *the* first impression people get of your work. It doesn't matter if its *in* the game, it still tells every prospective player that you as a dev are okay with using stolen assets, and thats not even getting into the ecological effect. If you can't make good placeholders, make bad ones, just actually MAKE them. STS2 literally uses ms paint drawings as placeholder art for all their stuff, theres literally royalty free assets you could use as well so you wouldn't even have to make anything and avoid stealing. Right now, all i see is an incremental game that looks like it might be fun, but I'm not gonna touch it with a 10 foot pole as long as that slop is in there.

pollikk_studios16 days ago

That’s fair. My priority before the november launch is building the game itself. The current banners are placeholders so I can spend my limited time on gameplay and content, ensuring players get the most value for their money at launch. I understand that some people dislike ai generated assets, and I respect that. They will be replaced as development progresses and I have time to focus on polishing.

pollikk_studios15 days ago(+3)

After doing some thinking, i have reconsidered, and will start making the new banner art. It will be out in the next update together with the new sound and music, making my game ai-free. Thank you for your comment!

JurasTW29 days ago(+1)

Cutting out mastery upgrades from demo is the wrong angle on "there are more features in the full release", but my productivity thanks you. This was a perfect time killer at work. Now i can focus again~<3

pollikk_studios29 days ago

Sorry to hear that. The game is currently in a very early access stage, and there’s still a lot I plan to implement. The demo will also receive more content over time.

It is entirely possible that I cut too much from the full experience for this demo release without adding enough new content to make up for it. If thats the case, I sincerely apologize. I am still actively developing the game and taking feedback into account as I continue expanding and improving it. Thank you for your point of view!

renbear6729 days ago

What does the up-arrow icon do on the saved builds? I'm struggling to understand lots of aspects of the new system, but that's the biggest one for me right now.

pollikk_studios29 days ago(+1)

I still have to refine it to make it more intuitive to understand so i completely understand the struggle.

The up arrow on the builds autobuys the build that you click. This is so that you can induvidually autobuy builds for each section

renbear6728 days ago

Thanks for responding! Understood, re: the arrow icon. I follow. I was trying to use the "Build ^" button, but it was buying things that weren't in my build. What saved build(s) does it draw from?

pollikk_studios28 days ago(+1)

It should be upgrading the selected builds.

One thing that may not be explained clearly enough is how build selection works. When you click on one of the saved builds, it becomes highlighted, indicating that it is now the active build for that section. If no saved build is selected, the system defaults to using the “Previous Run” build for that section.

When you click the leftmost button out of the small buttons in the top right inside the build overview, all of your currently selected active builds should be displayed. These are the builds that the “Build ^” button is supposed to use when performing upgrades.

If that’s not what’s happening, then there may be an issue which i need to look into.

renbear6728 days ago (1 edit)

So in order to set up builds to use with the Build^ button, we need to go through each of the section buttons and highlight the build we want to use. Then the Build^ button will take from those builds we've highlighted. Yes? It sounds like an optional step is to hit the "all active builds" button to check to make sure the builds we want are listed.

It also sounds like "selected" and "active" mean the same thing here.

(Thank you again, by the way!)

Edit: Yep, I tried it (but didn't hit the Build^ button, since I'm in the final stages of a run) and I follow you now.

renbear6728 days ago

Separately, and I hope it's OK to suggest this here, you might want to make it so the "save build on all sections" button doesn't require you to select a section first, since the section selected doesn't actually matter. It was extremely counter-intuitive.

pollikk_studios28 days ago(+1)

I agree, it should be much simpler to use and easier to understand. I had some issues implementing it without having to select a section first, but i will fix that for the next update.

thank you for all the feedback, really helps when i get different perspectives on new features!

onciblu31 days ago(+2)

for the better of my productivity. the game blocked features for demo players

pollikk_studios31 days ago

Haha, sorry about that.

The demo is mainly meant to show the core loop of the game, but I did add some new features and fully reworked the multipliers and upgrade values across the upgrade tree, so it should still feel fresh even in the demo from a new run

RhineXtoxnNet34 days ago(+1)

this game is such a mood thanks to the creator for being cool enough to make such a game

pollikk_studios34 days ago

Thank you! Really appreciate it!

cosmicgroot37 days ago

Been playing this game on the website version is there someway to export, to play on the downloaded game or do I need to start again?

pollikk_studios37 days ago(+2)

I've implemented a way to export and import save files between the browser version and the downloaded version. It won't be available until the next update though, which i will release in a couple of days.

I can however help you recover the prestige coins. If you'd like, reach out to me on Discord and I'll help

renbear6738 days ago (1 edit) (+1)

Hey, you might want to know there's some kind of bug at high storage levels. Trying to cook some recipes with the limit set to max (100%) complains that you have insufficient ingredients, but setting it to 99% works fine. It might be a floating-point or rounding error.

I'm seeing what might be a similar bug (or it might just be visual-only) with the overstim bright red coloration on the water bar. I've only been seeing dull red on the water bar this run. (All other bars are properly bright red.) Unfortunately, the individual-resource overstim effects are invisible, so I can't tell if it's visual-only or not.

pollikk_studios38 days ago(+1)

Oh yeah, that's definitely something I want to know about!

The storage issue and the 99% bug have both already been reported on the Discord server, and I've fixed them. The fixes will be included in the next major patch, which should be out in a couple of days.

As for the visual overstim issue, I'll need to investigate that further. Thank you so much for reporting it!

Now that you mention it, I might also need to rethink the overstim color..

renbear6734 days ago (1 edit) (+1)

Speaking of overstims, am I blind, or does Stick Bread not have its own overstim node? It is entirely possible I am blind. :-)

And thank you for your earlier response, by the way! I look forward to the next update!

pollikk_studios34 days ago(+1)

It doesn't, actually. I made all of the Overstim nodes in one go, and then kept adding more recipes afterward.

For now, I've been prioritizing QoL features, performance improvements, and save exporting before jumping back into new upgrades and late game content (That said, there will be more late game content in the next update).

I'm looking forward to sharing it all. I've got a lot of improvements, visual updates, upgrades, and unlocks in the works that I'm excited for everyone to see!

Petnavi42 days ago(+1)

Got to milestone 11 before I had to stop. Towards the end 99% of the time is spent just picking up nodes. There NEEDS to be a way to automate this. Once you get the perk to ignore downsides there really no real thought behind picking a specific optional node so I was just rapidly clicking every single node I could and it still took a year and a half. There's also not much else to do besides just clicking on things.

Maybe I didn't look hard enough, but I don't think the paths really mattered much. I mostly did the cooking one and did cheeseless pizza since it was pretty easy, but I did dip into the other ones and didn't really see why I would pick them since I felt the first one you unlocked gave you as much income as any of the other ones you did with a lot less effort.

Fun game over all early on, but rapidly gets tedious and repetitive with no real new mechanics to keep you engage. I really do wish I can 100% the prestige tree but it's just to boring at that point (probably need 2-3 more resets and I'm done) and I have Carpal Tunnel so can't really force myself through it

pollikk_studios42 days ago(+1)

thank you for the feedback! I am working on implementing lots of QoL improvements, including a way to easier finish upgrading nodes. I agree completely that the paths stop mattering at a point, but that is mostly because the game is very unfinished and mostly considered a demo. I will continue bringing updates to make the lategame more fun, more meaningfull and easier to deal with. I appreciate that you took the time to write that much and help me improve the game!

What do you mean Qa2?

pollikk_studios44 days ago

Are you asking about the large number labels? like Qa, Qi, Sx and so on?

reapergriswold44 days ago

there needs a way to save tree builds towards the end of the game after prestigeIng a lot it gets repetitive to buy the same upgrade again and again

pollikk_studios44 days ago

I absolutely agree! A fix for this is already suggestion in the discord server. I would love any and all feedback on it!

HB45 days ago

What is the hotkey for starting all cooking pots? I see a mention of it in the Upgrades screen, but it's not listed in the hotkey settings and I can't figure out what key it is.

pollikk_studios45 days ago (1 edit)

I actually didnt make a hotkey for the cookingpots. My thought was that cooking had to be a bit more of a struggle until auto. You can start all cookingpots by clicking the bell icon on the cookingpage though

HB44 days ago(+1)

Ok, that makes sense, I guess I read the description wrong!

Sigurdxl45 days ago(+1)

Addictive gameplay! Times fly by. Allot more features then other incremental games! Cool to be able to have different strategies to progress! Great game

pollikk_studios45 days ago

Really glad the strategy side is coming through! Thats one of the main things i wanted marketfield to have, lots of meaningfull small choices that gives variation to each run!

^densch45 days ago

really nice game, but after all the time spent coming here, I dont really dare to prestige, let alone thinjk about the futre when I gotta choose one of the 5 exclusive paths that lock you out of the remaining 4 ones chosen...

Would be cool if we could sell farms by the way.

GrandMasterViperStudios45 days ago(+3)

once you prestige, things move faster and faster depending on the prestige skills unlocked. I can do a full run unlocking everything in about 5-10 minutes now with almost all prestige skills unlocked.

pollikk_studios45 days ago(+1)

Thanks for feedback! Farms can already be sold with the small trash button in the bottom left. It may be a bit too hidden, so Ill look at that.

And later prestige upgrades let you start with multiple resources aswell as those resources combine into more valuable recipes

^densch45 days ago

sorry, maybe I am blind but I dont see no trash button on the frame tab.
I see my currently 5 farms as movable icons and pretty mcuh nothing else in the middle area.
and left is just the always present side bar, with the cooking and prestige button at the bottom.

pollikk_studios45 days ago

It is a small circular brown button on each of the farms. Rigth next to the generation bar. If you still dont see it, maybe you could send me a screenshot on discord?

^densch45 days ago(+1)

okay I see it now.
damn that wasnt obviou as a button as somethign at all, looked like part of the actual frame, would have never considered clicking on it if you hadnt mentioned it. I msut have skipped the part in the tutorial where it was mentioned :-)

pollikk_studios45 days ago(+1)

I will definently make it more obvious for the next patch, thanks again for the comment!

koshail46 days ago(+1)

In was a REALLY bad idea to make an F1 key a hotkey in browser game.

p_gl46 days ago

Hotkeys are rebindable

pollikk_studios46 days ago

Yeah thats fair. The game was mainly tested around the downloadable version, the browser version was more of a bonus addition when i uploaded to itch. As p_gl says though, the keybinds are rebindable, but i understand why having F1 as a default hotkey can be annoying

thank you for telling me about the error! It is a issue with the browser going out of memory for the saving functionality. The error will not occur in the downloaded version though. If you want your progress recovered, i can help you get it back if you talk to me on discord :) (I will be working towards fixing the error you got by the way)

This game is so much fun! Had no idea what I was in for after 10 min though! The game really takes off once you prestige and get to combine different strategies.

pollikk_studios52 days ago

Thank you for playing and enjoying the game!

Tristankn53 days ago(+2)

Well made, very addictive, everytime you prestige there is tons of new content to make your farm more effective and entertaining. I recommend that you download it because you will want be able to save and continue as you go to explore all the features.

pollikk_studios53 days ago (1 edit)

Thank you for playing! Glad you enjoy the game :D

pollikk_studios52 days ago (1 edit)

This is now fixed and saving/loading works in the browser. It does however still remain unstable for patches and updates. To be sure your save persists between updates, download the game!
