Idle Planet Miner - last of the recipes!

I was a bit surprised when I spent a few $q to unlock new smelter and crafting recipes in Idle Planet Miner only to see that I reached the very last ones.  Check this out:


I have been accumulating all the recipes, planet data and researches in spreadsheets along the way, and will try to put those into some Google Docs to attach to this blog soon.  Of course, there are fine wikis out there where teams have put together all this info.  I just enjoy composing my own guides.  And a big caveat would be that any prices or numbers of ingredients would be what I see on-screen based on whatever crazy modifiers I have at the time.  I have no way to access the raw unmodified numbers, but you would probably have about the same modifiers by the time you get to that point in the game anyway.

There are still about 10 planets and 6 researches to unlock, and then I am done.  Of course, this is all for the version I am running right now.  I can sell my galaxy and start again, maybe unlock these last bits after a month of struggling to get back to where I'm at now.  Or unlock them in the next few weeks and then come back 6 or 9 months later to see what has been added while I was away.

12/13 Update: I got the next 2 planets, now I need $600q for the next.  The cash windfall is up to $99.86q, so that's scaling up nicely.  I'm a few bits away from crafting that last recipe, the subspace relay that is made of 56 space probes + 80 satellite dishes + 2 teleporters.  That one item sells for $1.44Q, which is enough to get the next two planets unlocked.

Empires & Puzzles: End of Season 5

Image
I finished Season 5 (Egypt).  The last battle was impressive, with Set starting at about 18K HP with the usual minions, after which he becomes a titan battle with about 60KHP, and as that was winding down with my guys getting very weak, he came back as a regular battle with anoth 13KHP.  I think I did the 75 gems to buy a second chance, but it was a good end-of-season adventure with some surprises. A few nights back, I got an event summons and came up with Heimdall, that really difficult opponent who blows his horn and heals allies above their normal max HP, AND can reincarnate fallen allies.  Now he's on my team 6, and I'm training him up to help with the alliance wars. Last night I got a few event summons again, and bought a few more for $5.99.  Got some new ones: lemur construct, treevil, and a bunch of really odd characters.  I later got 3 summons from coins at the end of the event and got two different gnomes and some kind of magical flamingo.  Heck, 500 coins fo

Peace by Peace: Succulents

Image
We got Peace by Peace: Succulents a few weeks back at the Toy Box in San Clemente, CA on the way back from a weekend trip.  I also got the cactus-themed game "What's the Point" in that same batch, so it was an odd pair.  Two of the types of plants I used to grow back when I had space to grow things. Anyway, Peace by Peace is not really a game, it's a series of 50 puzzles.  There is a set of 45 triangle-shaped tiles with colored leaf patterns in each corner, then a set of 50 cards giving puzzles to be solved.  Each card list which numbered tiles to use and shows a few starting cards by their number, but not what position they're in, followed by some empty spaces and possibly the colors of a few other corners. The challenge is to work out how to complete the pattern using the tiles available.  It's a bit annoying finding those tiles to setup the puzzles, but we settled on stacking them in piles of 1-9, 10-19, 20-29, 30-39 and 40-45.  Then we could easily find wh

Idle Planet Miner - Debris Fields

Image
I finally completed research for the debris field in Idle Planet Miner.  It only took about a full month of what little time I have to fiddle with it daily. Yes, the debris fields are automatically harvested, just like the asteroids.  I have seen two debris fields appear so far.  One gave me a satellite dish and the other gave 71 basic computers.  So they are pretty much exactly what I was expecting: a source of random items. Here is one I caught in a screenshot... I added the white box so you can see it better.  They are gone in about 5 seconds like the asteroids so you might not see them most of the time.  I suddenly have 60 advanced computers, 700 lasers and a ton of other things.  Now I need 5 more nuclear reactors and 92 scrith alloy for the only other research available: superior asteroid harvester, another x1.3 value bonus.  I guess I can also do Advanced Leader for 8 more motors, 8 telescopes and 111 scrith alloy. I also made it to planet 43, the $6.2q investment, the first one
