Idle Tree
Released
Hello World - Patch Notes β 0.5.1
✦ Cosmic Events — A Reason to Stay Watching
The game now feels a little less idle — in a good way.
Instead of production bonuses quietly triggering on their own, a glowing star now appears somewhere on the tree canvas every few minutes. You have 25 seconds to click it before it fades away. Miss it, and the bonus is gone.
Each star carries a random cosmic event — from a gentle ×2 production boost to a blazing ×5 surge lasting just a few seconds. Clicking it activates the bonus immediately, shown as a progress bar at the bottom of the screen.
It's a small thing, but it gives you a reason to glance back at the game every now and then.
◐ Dark Prestige Points — New Symbol
The Dark Prestige currency has been rebranded from ϼ to ◐. No gameplay change. Just a cleaner, more readable symbol that better reflects the half-light, half-dark nature of the mechanic.
Ascension Tree
The Ascension tree has been reorganized to feel more like an actual tree:
- Shadow Awakening is now the root node — free, and the first thing you unlock after ascending
- All other nodes unlock progressively as you purchase their prerequisites, rather than all appearing at once
- A new node, Protocol Heritage, allows the Delta tree to survive Ascension
- Lines now connect all nodes visually
