Extreme Time Loop Incremental RPG - Omsi Loops

[@goldenalpharex1841]

Watching Wanderbot not realize that he had to continue breaking more pots made me wish I could just talk through the screen to tell him to continue breaking more pots

[@NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEJ]

And then the same with the lock picking.

[@etherkye2]

You are not alone with that!

[@acuddle]

@@NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEJ Yeah, he's like "I'm going to try picking a lock" when he sees that he needs 400 mana to finish the action and on a good loop he has barely more and it takes like *6 minutes* for him to realize 🤦‍♀

[@joshlewis8860]

He gets there

[@Caiofoca]

I mean, even with all the QoL they put extra into the game along the years, it's still a bit obscure and not that intuitive/clear on some aspects at first glance. xD

[@colecook834]

The game literally told him to break pots to sustain a loop and he forgot that almost instantly

[@wanderbots]

I just didn't really understand the how & why of it. I was breaking pots, just not enough.

[@deadlymind2622]

@@wanderbots the pots give mana, the reason for the 1>2>58 is because you have 2 pots that could currently be broken for mana during a loop, 1 remaining in the loop, and 58 pots that have not been checked yet. In pots case, every 10 pots that are in the farthest right slot that you complete you get one in the middle, meaning you have another pot to be able to get mana from.

[@deadlymind2622]

Sorry for the long explanation I just wanted to help out a bit

[@Jordan-c3r]

Him not realizing what found pots and pots with mana means is a little more than mildly frustrating

[@penguinarmy8557]

Wounderbot going through his incremental phase all for it

[@Jeekc]

21:40 The progress finally starts when the "Lootable first" checkbox is unchecked.

[@sawyeriii]

Very glad you figured out some of the better ways to optimize mana gain. Looking forward to you taking a step back and finish investigating and meeting people the rest of the town as the last action repeated then training so you base stats and all other options will be maxed and available.

[@DBDpurekiller]

I love how this is a reference to one of my favorite episodes of the twilight zone “time enough at last” 10:12

[@Zidane007stone]

This game is extremely awesome, played it for months! It has so much to offer and there are more towns and it has story, but it is slooooooooooooow, still enjoyed it immensely!

[@sadepide8351]

I'm loving these Idle game vids. Please play more of them

[@Caiofoca]

Btw Wander, the game is actually called Idle Loops. Omsi was just one of the like 5 different major contributors for the game back then and for some reason the newer contributors kept his name in the project/url.

[@deadlymind2622]

not sure if he ever realizes but for anyone playing this, the circle selects makes you do the exact amount you have known, so if you have 3 pots with mana it does 3 pots

[@dennisc3438]

Yep, the tooltip for it only pops up when you hover over the "Action List" title.

[@Spikeba11]

Note: the circle accounts for the amount used in other lines, so if you have one catch the rest line and some precise amounts line you can just click the circle on the catch the rest line without interfering with the ability for the precise lines to function.

[@WhyDoYouFail132]

This game seems very similar to 'Stuck in Time', loved it, will have to play omsi too

[@deathblade32]

Look up the squirrel loops, it's the most recent version, long story short, main game was dropped, picked up, dropped, picked up, dropped, then picked up again, and the last one is squirrel, with it being made a 5th version right now

[@jadenedaj]

Wish these type of games had a Steam section, I've started over this game like a dozen times with different windows installs and cache clearings -_-

[@danmerillat]

Most (if not all) web idle games have a save to file option, you should use that from time to time. If you're deleting all your documents every few months I dunno what to tell you. Dropbox or onedrive or something?

[@gulliver9086]

Loops is my fav incremental game, but it can take months to finish so I'm not sure if it works as a video series unfortunately. I could not play this game without the Prediction extension so you know how your loop will actually turn out (mana cost per action accounting for talent/level, how long the loop is, etc) Technically Omsi's version isn't even the most up to date one. The story goes something like this: StopSign makes Loops, but stops after 3 zones. Omsi takes over and expands a lot, but eventually quits as well. Lloyd makes a new version based on Omsis version expanding on it even further

[@Caiofoca]

He's actually play DMchurch's version, which is a lot more updated than Lloid's and is in fact the newest one. Just that it's called Omsi-loops in the url I guess to honor it.

[@Spikeba11]

Looking at the changelogs Omsi forked Loyd's 3.0 from January 23 2023 version (Loyd's latest) and progressed it from there so Omsi does have the most developed version again!

[@fluxcutie4813]

if you enjoyed this there is a different game on steam called stuck in time. it plays somewhat similarly but it's more puzzly and RPGish.

[@omnivorax]

This is a really interesting game, thanks for introducing it to me!

[@didlowman7217]

I'd love a weekly incremental soup stream just an hour or 2 each week here's how our games are going load a new one in prestige ect. It could also be the soft launch of the Wandercast

[@nahtanahtan]

I would recommend Squirrel Loops, which is a big remake of that game with pretty much everything changed. 😁

[@nahtanahtan]

Oh, and the dev of that version is currently working on a Godot port with even more changes, keep an eye on it!

[@MatthewKelley-mq4ce]

I'll have to second this then!

[@Caiofoca]

Also, it has a great tutorial that works for learning the original game.

[@Ethan54006]

Even though the start was rocky, id love to see more of this now that you have a better understanding of how it works

[@danmerillat]

Another banger incremental idle. I'd played quite a while ago, but didn't know about the fork that has prestiges added. Save transferred over and now I'm running a fresh run with some starting bonuses.

[@andrewhawkins6754]

The circle is "do the max of the lootables"

[@Spikeba11]

unfortunately it is a one click set to current and not a toggle to keep updated.

[@ronanhartman8942]

Can't wait to see this added to the incremental soup rotation!!!

[@zombietsar5945]

Another incremental for the pire, "SS13 Idle" incremental game based off of a niche multiplayer imm-sim

[@DecimalKaos]

Haha, definitely more uses for the glasses, This game is crazy deep, even using as much time boost as possible i'm still working on it over 8hrs in I've used over a year of time boost so far..... O.O

[@theconney1512]

That thumbnail speaks a thousand words

[@Spikeba11]

The mana costs change mid loop as your skills go up. Hovering over an action in the action list tells you the amount of mana spent on the last action.

[@CyberGhost42]

This game reminds me of Stuck In Time on Steam (used to be known as Loop Odyssey but it was changed to be more distinct from Loop Hero) with a similar program your character and they become more efficient with repeated actions system, though SiT has a bit more depth and pixel graphics instead of being mostly raw text.

[@jordan-ci4xd]

what music is playing in the background?

[@frankylopez4477]

Is this Increlution if it wasn't dropped by its developer?

[@wanderbots]

It's hard to blame Gniller for dropping Increlution since his health took a serious turn for the worse this year. I hope he finishes it, but I've definitely had my $3 of fun from it.

[@frankylopez4477]

@@wanderbots Thank you for answering. It sucks that he is sick, i didn't know. I really loved how refreshing the gameplay was, so different than usual number up incrementals but its fine, as you said. For the cost the game has more than paid with its gameplay.

[@adamkimanzi8891]

I never comment and i know you don’t normally do multiple parts but please make this a series

[@blackhat4968]

How did you make it so the last action was repeated until all mana was used up, Instead of resetting when the last action was completed?

[@anonymouspotato4899]

Which version is this? I googled it and the version I found has a completely different UI and no story popups at the bottom there

[@etherkye2]

Having to play this now just to see how I do!

[@MsVilecat]

Oh dang, just as I was hoping I could get to watch/find a new incremental game, you upload a video. Breaking pots = have you become Link?

[@deosisx]

this game looks like hybrid of increlution and loop odyssey

[@AldenVondyck]

that's very interesting very nice soup of life always goes around

[@GamblingPro-d4r]

Hi wanderbot, can you pls link your music playlist i have been loving the songs

[@grams18]

I think it´s more like "Stuck in Time" mechanics and with very slowly getting stats and stuff in the beginning.

[@thisGuy481]

Wow, I've been playing this all day and I am no where near getting that amount of mana you have LOL

[@thisGuy481]

How come when you put your smash pots up to 36 your mana goes up to 2000+ but when I do it, it not only fails but my remaining mana is 977 and I have 95% exploration like am I doing something wrong

[@thisGuy481]

Yes I was

[@BodyGuardCZ]

Incre…. *Click*

[@kolos0139]

I absolutely *adore* the thumbnail... Did you make it specifically for this one, or was it already in the bank?

[@wanderbots]

Made it specifically for this video last night!

[@Dream1Verse]

I’ve played 3 different idle loops, but still haven’t gotten to this one.

[@johnbrowning6558]

Can you play more of this game.

[@supersonic_kai_99]

This looks cool

[@megadeth116]

I really wanted the action list in increlution. The priority system is so unreliable

[@AlterXVI]

49:25 would’ve loved if the video started here lol, the first 40mins were painful but I think that’s just me wanting to see the gameplay get deeper within the video.

[@wanderbots]

Yeah. Normally I'd cut it but I'm on vacation till January 4th and will be a bit sloppier with my work till then. Not that it made a huge difference anyway. The accelerated time really smoothed out a lot of my inefficiencies.

[@airhater]

Incremental stream soon 😮

[@RobertGardnerEngineer]

Weird Gremlin Man 100%

[@kentonroush]

Ah, Idle Loops. ...I keep forgetting about this one, because it got abandoned, then picked up again, abandoned, picked up again... It feels like it's just begging for a more focused development effort on a new game inspired by its mechanics, but for some reason it just hasn't really been copied.

[@spy-fv7dp]

think you should check out a game called: Stuck in Time

[@megadeth116]

Stop spoiling me so much

[@AlterXVI]

Break pots, pick locks, buy mana ……… this was mildly painful to watch because the order of operations was all over the place.

[@joshlewis8860]

He figured it out

[@DaxMicro]

I played Increlution for a long time and it lost me at chapter 11 when instead of being idle it became reactionary with no credible way to just plan actions and let the game happen. I haven't played since. This game on the other hand, as long as it stays as it is looks like a decent replacement.

[@TypeZeta2]

Time to download another game

[@majormajorasic]

Noice noice

[@CoffeyDot]

Interesting game

[@matkebaaz120]

I can't play all.these all at onceer

[@ZakisHereNow]

Dude, you’re supposed to set the actions to have breaking pots for mana between other actions to sustain the loop.

[@wanderbots]

Nope. There's no mana cap, so frontloading mana gain is totally fine.

[@kaydenthompson9463]

Never been this early (first)
