Is it supposed to take long to get to another version?

It seems like it takes forever to get to the new upgrade. Am I playing it wrong? The tutorial tells you to start a new leveled area as soon as someone goes to level 2. Should I wait for more people to get to level 2? I feel like I'm always underwater with money, which gives me the impression I'm building too quickly.

The version of your Game (basically level) is based off of how many buildings and decorations you place. Keep an eye on your version as you place something and if the very last number goes up by 1 then that item type counts towards your game version. Always update when the button flashes. I'd rec trying it on 10$ items bc you can put way more of those down than one 1000$ thing, and they both only give 1 'xp'. Alldat said the devs are working on a new progression system rn.

Second, yea money is slow, you're not doing anything wrong (probably). Sometimes you just need to wait with the game on 3x speed so you can get some money to do more stuff.

Also for money, there's a little shopping stall in the bottom of the shop tab in buildings, you can make that a stand that sells useless items for like 1$ n ppl will buy it and it helps their mood.

As for zones and levels, that's up to you, you could prep new areas asap to try to keep people entertained, if you don't its not a giant deal, just means that the higher level players will take a break and maybe leave. If you want things to go slower, you could try bending the player exp curve in the level tab for design. Make it so they need more quests, or monster kills or something. Stalling a bit n giving yourself time to save money and build stuff they way you want to. Then after a while you can curve it back down when you'r good with your progress (if you want to).

That makes sense. I almost feel like there should be a system based on number of developers and maybe the amount of money you put into research and/or perks for creating your own mobs.

Thanks for your help.

I agree, I think the progress update is supposed to drop before the end of the year? Not sure.

And no prob

Wow, this is exactly what I thought it was going to be.
