Any update for space exploration? I'm just starting to launch probes with little success. Part of me wishes that I just stuck to my roots and kept making paperclips....

thanks to what everyone here said decided not to release the drones.... currently making over $129,000 a second... leaving my browser open and looking forward to coming into work tomorrow and seeing the fruits of my labor

btw... my sweet spot to make sure my revenue is high as it can be and my demands doesn't exceed my price is at 70 cents a clip.... I'm basically charging $70 for a box of paper clips and the money is still rolling in... monopolizing has paid off

My minions survived the night allowing me to finish exploring the entire universe while finishing my coffee. What a game. I'm curious to know how your strategy is going.

I came in and withdrew the investments that accumulated overnight... that plus my paperclip revenue had me at over 19 BILLION!!!! not stopping there.... more marketing levels which currently costs me 3 billion for the next level... more megaclippers... currently charging almost a dollar per paper clip and making $177,000 per second.

ETA: Now charging a full dollar per paper clip and pulling in $210,000 per second

If anyone is interested in the origins of this game's design and/or concepts, The Verge has a pretty well written article about it.

Is it just a matter of time to unlock combat or is there something that needs to be done?

I think you have to select one of the projects that appear. I am at 10% of the universe explored and rising fast, should have the universe finished in about 10 minutes

I cant even click the swamr gifts fast enough now. Am at 3000 memory and processors and I have 1200 to use, but havent needed in a while

have a feeling this is at the end
