A quick glance at the Discussions shows that these bugs have been present for months and, while the developers seem to be prompt in responding to the posts there seems to be no actual action on the development side to fix the issues.\nJust a few notable issues:\nPurchased soldiers disappear after saving and reloading the game. I was able to reproduce this with the same (3rd soldier no less than 5 times but also the 4th soldier) you can purchase them, upgrade them, play a multi-hour session with them, save numerous times but if you quit and relaunch the game they will be gone, forcing a potential multi-hour long grind to repurchase them, only to have them disappear on your next session again.\nThere are several instances of upgrade and purchase prices in the store showing one 'currency' (ore) but actually deducting the amount from a different ore on purchase or, more confusingly, not allowing a purchase when you clearly have enough of the indicated resource.\nThe resource spawning will simply stop after awhile, requiring a restart to get it going again (hopefully you didn't purchase additional soldiers, because they'll be gone once you start it up again). Creating a very unfun gameplay loop.\nIt's a shame that what could be a fun, reasonably priced idle game is so plagued with game breaking bugs and seemingly abandoned by the developers.

While it seems to be a straightforward idle game that starts out enjoyable enough you will quickly stumble across numerous game breaking bugs that turn an enjoyable distraction into tedious frustration. A quick glance at the Discussions shows that these bugs have been present for months and, while the developers seem to be prompt in responding to the posts there seems to be no actual action on the development side to fix the issues.

Just a few notable issues:
\nPurchased soldiers disappear after saving and reloading the game. I was able to reproduce this with the same (3rd soldier no less than 5 times but also the 4th soldier) you can purchase them, upgrade them, play a multi-hour session with them, save numerous times but if you quit and relaunch the game they will be gone, forcing a potential multi-hour long grind to repurchase them, only to have them disappear on your next session again.

There are several instances of upgrade and purchase prices in the store showing one 'currency' (ore) but actually deducting the amount from a different ore on purchase or, more confusingly, not allowing a purchase when you clearly have enough of the indicated resource.

The resource spawning will simply stop after awhile, requiring a restart to get it going again (hopefully you didn't purchase additional soldiers, because they'll be gone once you start it up again). Creating a very unfun gameplay loop.

It's a shame that what could be a fun, reasonably priced idle game is so plagued with game breaking bugs and seemingly abandoned by the developers.

I think the game isn't thought through well.
\nWhy can't I heal or repair just a part of everything?
