CERN Particle Clicker

  • Hi all, this is Kevin from the Particle Clicker dev team. We made this game last weekend at the [CERN Webfest](http://webfest.web.cern.ch). We didn't get much actual work done since then...

    Thanks a lot, this is really amazing but the game is far from perfect. We will release a mobile version soon. The code for everything is on [GitHub](https://github.com/particle-clicker/particle-clicker) and we really need your help to make it better.

  • Mighty fun. It'd be more realistic if you were in perpetual danger of running out of money and losing your hard-won work force.

  • Since we are linking are favorite "idle" games, I have to recommend A Dark Room: http://adarkroom.doublespeakgames.com/

  • All you need to do now is add in some kind of sneaky hidden lite-coin mining and release mobile versions.

    EDIT: Obviously, don't do that. But I'm kind of surprised it hasn't happened yet.

  • Awesome adaptation of cookie clicker: http://orteil.dashnet.org/cookieclicker/

  •   auto-clicker hack: 
      var de = $('#detector-events');
      requestAnimationFrame(function next() {
        de.click();
        requestAnimationFrame(next);
      });
    
    I know I know.. where is the fun, right?

  • I love how summer students produce twice as much data as Nobel prize winners :)

  • The main thing I learnt from playing this game is that we should have given up on High Energy Physics after discovering the Tau-lepton, and gone on to do something more productive with our time, money & human resources...

  • Some easter egg, like opening a portal to another dimension and (perhaps) destroying Earth after 'too much' research on Higgs boson would be nice, I think.

  • This is really great! For spoilers, check out: https://github.com/particle-clicker/particle-clicker/blob/ma.... I enjoyed where the "Summer Students" ranked.

    For hacks, check out the "GameObjects.lab" object in the console.

  • I think the data/click tops out too early. I maxed out at 369/click and it's not even worth clicking after a while.

  • Cool game, but it's weird that you can Science is cool!!! lvl 7 before lvl 6 if you gather enough money.

  • This is a derivation of a derivation of Cow Clicker, which was made as a satire of Zynga games.

  • GameObjects.lab.detector.rate = 1000000

    GameObjects.lab.reputation = 1000000

    dc = document.getElementById("detector-events")

    setInterval("dc.click()", 100)

  • So, all Cookie Clicker needed was a nerdy upgrade, right?

  • Being in academic research currently, this is hilarious.

  • This reminds me a lot of candy box: http://candies.aniwey.net/

  • worse than heroin

  • var z = angular.element(document.getElementById("detector-events")).scope();

    for(var i = 0; i< 100; i++) { z.dc.click(); }

    //khihihihiiiii :D
