So I'm on my 1003rd ascension. I know I can buy everything in a hurry to get to endgame, but I lived there for almost a year before this ascension and am trying to space out the dopamine hits of seeing my production go way up. As such, my first goal was to vault my kittens, only buy them 5 at a time and to abstain from HCs until my dragon was fully trained and I had at least 200 of everything again. After unlocking Heavenly chip secret, I haven't purchased any more upgrades. So the play for the week is one kitten per day for the next 5 days, then all the remaining non-HC upgrades on Monday, then one HC upgrade per week until I'm done with them, then freeplay. Anyone do anything similar or have any thoughts?
Before you can start: shut up about the outside.
In Cookie Clicker, resetting the game (aka ascending) gives you advantage points (aka heavenly chips aka HCs) based on the cookie-clicker-sized number of cookies you've baked all time. For instance, I've baked 400 novemdecillion cookies and have 74 quadrillion HCs. Each HC, when fully unlocked, contributes a percentage to a cookie production multiplier. As such, were my HCs all unlocked, I'd have a multiplier of 740 trillion. As with most games, playing with a 740 trillion multiplier is pretty OP and you can buy pretty much all the upgrades and then have a fairly boring game ahead of you. So instead of going with all 740 trillion at once, I'm spacing out the upgrade purchases so that instead of a one-time trip to the cookie stratosphere, I'll have multiple days where my cookie per second increases astonishingly.
