Alpha 0.9 – New Features, Balancing, and Improvements

New Content:

• Added a story intro when starting a new game

• Created a Help Glossary, accessible via the new Help button

Balancing:

• Offline Bonus:

  • The previous offline bonus calculation was too complex and sometimes buggy, leading to incorrect rewards.

  • New rule: Passwords are generated until the cap is reached; afterward, the remaining offline time generates RansomWare. Dollar production remains unchanged.

• Blackmails have been significantly buffed — the bonus per Blackmail now increases faster and more noticeably

• The cost scaling for Leaked Contacts has been reduced: prices now increase by a factor of 1.5 instead of 2.0

UI Improvements:

• Removed old tooltips

• Introduced the new Help button for easier access to explanations

• Increased the menu font size for better readability

• Increased the countdown timer font size

Several minor bugs have also been identified and fixed.

As always, please report any bugs or issues you encounter!
