Didn't realize until I started looking at the comments how old this game was. I just discovered it, though, and lucky me! It was certainly amusing, and I liked the Donkey Kong beat! Not sure how long it took me, but I did complete it. Kind of funny how while it wasn't your intention that people would actually finish it, people sure seem intent on doing so. Maybe you should have a version that does the whole text of King Lear :)
87% done with the game and i just now realized that the percentage is not your chance to get the letters correct going up, but is in fact your progress
The music's an original piece that just samples Diddy Kong from Donkey Kong Country (this clip specifically). I just added the raw .wav file as a download, too in case you're interested.
i feel like the game has too little progression, i understand it's very long and that's the point, but it's also a clicker game, so it probably wouldnt be too hard to add a few more levels to some of the upgrades
because i got everything before 6% and then all player interaction was removed from the game
but for it just being a silly conceptual game you did a great job and i got a laugh out of it, but im calling it quits here just before 8%
8% is definitely further than I assumed most people would make it! The absurd length was definitely part of the joke, but I'll take this into account for the next project. Thanks!
the only negative thing i can say about the game is that for some reason, (this is nobody's fault but simply some glitch that happens in most games i play when i'm on mobile) when i click outside of the game box i can no longer interact with the game but it does go on without my interaction.
What about making the game wider with more rows of monkeys to be bought, same with the posters and trees updates. and put the entire book or just chapter 2 as an update.
That depends on how the random number generator works. Generally there's a relatively small number of seeds you can start with, and if there's nothing the game uses rng for besides the numbers the monkeys pick it will always pick the same series of letters from the same seed, so regardless of what seed it picks it won't be able to get all the letters on the first try.
theoretically, yes, assuming the character order isn't predetermined. if it is not predetermined, each character has a 1/36 (2.778%) chance of being the correct one. then the next character has a 1/36 chance. and so on. so the odds of getting every single letter on the first try would be 1 in some trillions or something. i don't feel like counting how many letters spaces and symbols are in act 1 scene 1 of king lear. if it is predetermined, i have no freaking clue what the odds would be.
guh i came back to this game over 2 years later and realized by reading the text below the game that it's really 1/34 and it's 14326 characters long. using a bit of maaaath that's... 1 in a really big number that rounds to a 9 with 21939 zeroes. i wanted to put the whole number but it exceeds the character limit of 20,480 lol

5. school. days.
What a quirky and fun concept
What a nice game, boring as hell so I ran 6 monkey factory at the same time. 130 minutes and they are done
Here's the screenshot that I finished this
Also there was no randomness and they all finished the same time I ran them
lemme guess, school computer account?
why did bro cover his bookmarks
great game on my tv took some time to make money because since there was no keyboard connected and mouse.
you should add endgame dlc (King Lear, Act I, Scene II)
Hmm. Monke.
anyway to make it full screen?
What a banging soundtrack, I´ve been listening to it for the past 2 hours
i did this with one monkey (andy) and it took him 80.5 hours
WHAT KINDA MAD MAN-
Wishing Andy a healthy recovery from his carpal tunnel <3
I just love how frenetik the monkeys get at the end. THEY F*CKING LOVE TYPING SHAKESPEAR
Monke be like:
- I f*ckin love these clicketi-clacketing tap machines!!!

ok so, wierd question
can you make an alternative version where you can coppy paste a pice of your own text that the monkeys have to type?
i like that idea.
Skullbutton make this happen
Ups, had it running in the background
What a way to tell everyone you know what happened in King Lear act I scene I
Don't leave this game unattended if you value whatever device you are playing on.
a few hours later
was a ride
It was the best of times, it was the blurst of times.
monke
This gives a whole new meaning to an infinite amount of mokeys typing for an infinite amount of time
did anyone notice that the building looks like a typewrite
I finally did it after 3 failed attempts less gooo
yap.

This is really silly, nice!
definitely needs more monkeys.
What is the music title ?

I'm going to finish it I'm at 10% rn
25%
50%
75%
100% wow I did all that for a "Act I scene I done, great job"
I was so close to finishing it but then my friend shut down my computer :< I'm at 5 rn
30 now
this is way too boring and way too entretaining for some reason
Alas, art imitates life 😔

at this time i am almost at 10%
I wish I can take a part time job or something to fund my monkey project, while I wait for my monkey to generate money
the only negative thing i can say about the game is that for some reason, (this is nobody's fault but simply some glitch that happens in most games i play when i'm on mobile) when i click outside of the game box i can no longer interact with the game but it does go on without my interaction.
Well....I've complete it today as well, took me maybe an hour or two?
i was expecting a little more fanfare for finishing the game… :(

That would be cool
Love this so far! 0.4328% of the way through and going strong. Great idea!
to be honest make another game using monkeys as lumberjacks because the speed of their arms is really fast
Hmmm
I wonder how many people actually beat the game ...?
Well now there is one more :-)
It's technically possible to get every letter on the first try.

the fact still stands that the guy who asked probably still has no clue cuz of how confusing this was
