Genesis (Warning: currently has lag issues)
Generation of photons, made for the Incremental Game Jam 2021.
Author's note: The game currently has a memory leak issue that might cause the game to permanently freeze if you leave it for long enough. I am currently trying to fix this issue

I really enjoyed this game, at first it was so slow at production and then i got a star then i got so many photons in a matter of seconds, I can rate this 9/10
Edit: time travelling confirm
I thought the Reflection phase was slow, until I realized it had it's own list of upgrades. Reached the final element, unsure if I'm expected to farm from e13 to e45 photons and actually buy Uranium, but I think I otherwise finished the game.
I enjoyed it...
The auto-buy seems broken.. In fact, the super energize timer also seems stuck at 60 seconds. I' guessing one of the timers is broken. Also, as a suggestion, add an item under the options to "save" game state.. even if the game autosaves often, give players a little peace of mind should they need to reload/refresh.
Update: I seems it's not just the timers, but many things that need to get updated/refreshed--including gave saves. I had progressed to the point of making dysons, but the solar energy was not updating at all. Upon refreshing the game, it went back to a game state from several *hours* ago. At this point, his bug is a game breaker making the game unplayable.
I've added a button to save the game as well as a "Last game save" indicator to solve any save-related issues.
I'm unsure about the UI not refreshing since I am unable to reproduce the bug, but I'm working on it.
No sure if this helps, but playing again... Noticed that the "Last save" time sometimes goes negative.
Edit to add: Sometimes, it goes back positive, and things continue okay. Other times, it stays negative--and as long as it is negative, other things are not updating. I can sometimes make it reset by clicking he "Save" button numerous times, but not always.
Can we get some menu optimization for phone? I can't scroll updates
I have finished the game. It was fun.
If you want some improvements, I would suggest:
1. Reflectors says that they cost atoms, but they don't.
2. Buying bunch of atoms is painful. Maybe some modifier like "buy 10 atoms at once" will be a solution?
3. In the very-late-game my stars number increased over time, but I don't know why (I guess it is intended, but I haven't found any notice what has created that).
Anyway, I really like this game.
