Corporate Capital
Corporate Capital is a satirical idle/clicker/AFK game about grinding your way up the corporate ladder, one soul-crushing customer service ticket at a time. Mash keys to draft replies, fire off canned corporate jargon, and watch the tickets pile up. Reinvest your earnings into upgrades, outsource your job to overseas agents, then replace them with an AI chatbot; because nothing says "synergy" like automating yourself out of relevance. Get promoted, start the grind over as HR, deny leave requests, deploy HR bots, then fire your own middle managers and do it all again. It's an incremental clicker with a dark corporate-satire the more efficient you get, the less anyone (including you) is actually needed.
AI NOTE: llm output helped in my text editor neo vim I also used it for the cover art, because we ran out of time.

Needs some improvements in terms of performance and balancing:
Before the first reset, getting the max number of nodes does no push the resolution rate any higher. At this point, the game seems to slow down.
There is no way to configure graphical output: the pop numbers/messages are useless, but enhance the load.
Game also needs to show income per minute, no way to see how much money you are making.
Watch ad button doesnt work, afk button doesnt work.
Layout is awful. Did you use AI?
You might enjoy The Idle Class, similar theme. https://www.smallgraygames.com/the-idle-class
Thanks for the feed back, for it to be a bit more helpful what screen size where you using? desktop, phone? landscape? Your game is quite nice fun to see how ideas can just be in the zeitgeist. I also love seeing people using html to make games not just JS, What framework did you use?
Oh that's not my game, it's just one I like that has a similar theme to yours - I think parodying capitalism is a great theme for an idler.
I'm on Chrome desktop, laptop size screen, but by layout I mean all the stuff that is covering up other stuff, the upgrade area you have to scroll down instead of buyable stuff being on top, the email area being set up so once you have some auto repliers you can't real;y do manual anymore, things like that. Also the WATCH AD button doesn't work, not sure if that's intentional or my adblocker.
