Christmas 2025 Charity Results

16 January 2026

Apologies for the slight delay on this. 

During the event 10% of all donations made to the game were earmarked for charity. That total was £115.89

Mental health is a foundational aspect of overall well-being, influencing our thoughts, feelings, and actions, and deserves the same attention as physical health.

As most of you know, the charity Mind UK have personally been of help to me in the past and are wonderful. Mental health is always at its lowest points at this time of the year and you've all helped to contribute to making sure someone else isn't alone in their tough time.

I appreciate you all. Thank you for being a part of this community.

Idling Forward

22 December 2025

It has been asked for often, so I have increased the amount of auto's everyone has by 500 permanently.

I created the ability for me to change this at will, so I can increase it temporarily over Christmas break etc.

As I have updated the base amount of auto's, I have already increased the auto's gained from Subscription from 250 to 1,000.

I have also updated the other stats tab to show an accurate display of how many Auto's you have. The count now includes all sources of autos. Base, Bought, Subscription and alliance.

Admin tools cleanup

30 November 2025

Fixed some admin tools for viewing/editing some of the miscellaneous properties associated to users, such as preferences, referrer etc.

Black Friday & Christmas 2025

19 November 2025

With Black Friday being so close to the start of our usual December Christmas event, I have decided to just roll them in together this year. 

The Exp/Gold multiplier will increase by 1% for every $10 donated. Unlike previous years, the multiplier is starting at 3x!

The usual Black Friday Light/Dark orb offer is also available now.

Since I've rolled Black Friday into the Christmas event, the 10% of all donations going to charity, that counter also starts now.

Much love to you all, you're a great little community.

Christmas Charity 2024

08 January 2025

As most of you know, every year, during the Christmas promo, I also keep record of how much is donated to the game throughout the month of December and donate 10% of everything to charity.

This year, $630 was received (before fee's and tax). Which is £509.69 in my local currency. Which would equate to £50.97 to charity.

I have always set a minimum amount of £100, so I will be donating that this year.

Christmas, and the holiday season in general can be a tough time for many, which is why i will be donating it to Mind UK again. This charity deals in helping people with mental illnesses and suicide prevention, amongst other things. They have legitimately helped me in the past, and it's entirely possible that me and therefore VF wouldn't be here today without this charity. I want for other people to have the same help that I had when I needed it most.

To all of you, Thank you for your support. Thank you for always being good to me, for helping me keep this game running and all your sincerity. Thank you for your understanding with a lack of updates in recent times, due to my personal circumstances with work and all the things I have been doing with my life outside of the game recently. 

I Appreciate you all.

Ghosts, Ghouls, Wedding Bells, Santa.

21 October 2024

Halloween background is up as requested! along with 2x event time and diamond sale!

As most of you may already be aware, I'm getting married in less than 5 weeks now. So, in celebration of that, I have set the event time to go from now, until AFTER CHRISTMAS!

Huge time.

But wait, there's more! I will also be periodically increasing the multiplier based on donations made, like we did for last Christmas. With a 2 month event, that could get really high!

Have fun, happy clicking. Love ya.

HotFix: Equipping items

02 April 2024

There was an issue with equipping items, you could only unequip. This has been resolved. You will need to do a hard refresh(ctrl+f5) to ensure you get the new changes.

QoL and upgrade prep

30 March 2024

In the early hours of the day (for me), the game went offline due to a failed service.

I took the "opportunity" to apply some pending updates that i had.

76 updates made to back end code in preparation for a shift from .NET 5 to .Net 6. This is the underlying framework for c# and this upgrade will bring a ~40% increase to game general speed.

33 updates to server kernels, nodes and modules.

QoL: added a button to clear your loot log

Looks like the changes promised to the "other stats" tab weren't commited to the repository and so weren't included in this update. but they are coming!

I fixed an issue with critical hits, where in certain cases the damage was stacking each round, rather than being a singular increase as expecteed.

People keep asking about the online counter too. There's been some issues parsing DateTime fields correctly as these values have been stored differently over the years, and innactive players have different values than whats currently expected. Funnily enough, I can get this working correctly in my development environment, but it doesn't translate correctly when in live. I am making progress on fixing that issue though.

2023 Christmas Charity Wrap up

02 January 2024

A happy new year to all!

As per usual, throughout December, 10% of all donations to the game go to charity. It was decided by mass vote in chat that I donate to Mind UK again like previous years. Mental health affects us all and is personally one of my favourite charities.

We didn't reach above my minimum donation to them, so I will be donating £100 to them after having posted this announcement.

Thank you everyone for all your support to me and the game over the years. You're all awesome.
