You cast fireball right before you die.

Yayyy. I have all the items. I beat the game!

Developper is a twink.

Beating yourself simply requires a visit to the sorceress.

Am I missing something? The only thing to do at this point seems to be to just wait and let candy (8/s)/lollipops (100/s) accumulate. Maybe buy a huge amount of teleport scrolls and make a lot of seeds/invulnerability potions with which to fight the dragon and accumulate health?

I keep misreading this thread title as "Candy Boz" and getting very confused.

Also hungry.

I could candy you, but I don't know if that would be a good idea for anyone involved.  I don't think you'd taste good, for one.  Oh, and the murder, cannibalism, and you being dead and whatnot.

So now that I've beaten myself, Chuck Norris is in my way.  And how on earth are you supposed to beat him?  He seems to do more and more damage while taking less and less.  And it's a staring contest?  Also, how does a visit to the sorceress beat you?

For the Dragon and Chuck both, the strategy is to use an Invul pot, then when it wears off you use a teleport and drop a seed in front of you to let the cooldown wear off.

You have to time it so that he doesn't get too close.

In other news, I beat the developper!  Now to make bugs.

And try hard mode.

EDIT: A sword of liflamesummoning? hmmmm.....

Wait, you can actually get that?  How?  I thought that was an editing thing they did.

Madness:

“Hast thou not felt in forest gloom, as gloaming falls on dark-some dells, when comes a whisper, hum and hiss; savage growling sounds a-near, dazzling flashes around thee flicker, whirring waxes and fills thine ears: has thou not felt then grisly horrors that grip thee and hold thee?”

So...

I take it you've gotten to bugs by now?

Beating the developper gave me 700 million candies, so with the candy converter it was easy to get the sword.

Okay, important note: Anything that is infinite when you save will reset to zero when you reload the game.  So keep an eye on what you're doing.

Right, and how long did it take you to get there?

Oh. I mean, I started playing about an hour before I posted the original link... and I had it off for several hours at one point...

Current candies/second.  The screep cap was taken immediately after eating all the candies, thus showing my candies per tick:


Hilariously, not set through cheat codes: I bought upgrades from the sorceress until she had no more upgrades to sell.

Speaking of having eaten candies:



Numbers, I tells ya.  Took a few hours to build back up after getting everything to infinite--which reset to zero upon reloading.  Also, just because, inventory shot:

What's the right way to beat Chuck Norris? The only thing I can think of is to sit back with trees/teleport and spam acid rain/earthquake.

Am I missing something? Near as I can tell, it should take forever to get that high!
