hikari b27454669e feat: add auto-prestige toggle via runestone shop upgrade
Adds a new Utility category to the prestige shop with the "Autonomous Ascension" upgrade (100 runestones). Once purchased, a toggle button appears in the shop that enables automatic prestige — the client RAF loop checks the threshold on each tick and fires the prestige API automatically using the current character name.

 This feature was implemented with help from Hikari~ 🌸

Elysium — Content Ideas

A running list of planned features and content additions. Strike through items as they're completed!


🌟 New Systems

  • Offline earnings — When returning to the game, earn a percentage of what you'd have earned offline (cap at ~812 hours). Upgradeable via the prestige shop to increase the % and the time cap. Essential for an idle game!

  • Second prestige layer (Transcendence) — Unlocked after ~10 prestiges. Sacrifice all runestones for a new currency ("Echoes"?). Echoes are permanent account-wide currency that persist across prestiges. Has its own upgrade tree with truly game-changing bonuses. Gives endgame players a long-term goal.

  • Daily challenges — Three rotating objectives each day (e.g. kill X boss, earn X gold this run, complete X quests). Reward bonus crystals. Encourages daily logins even when idling comfortably.

  • Boss first-kill bounties — Defeating a boss for the very first time grants a one-time runestone bonus. Rewards exploration and makes conquering a new zone feel extra satisfying.

  • Auto-prestige toggle — Unlockable via the prestige shop. Automatically prestiges the moment the threshold is reached. Late-game convenience that dedicated players will love.


📦 Content Additions

  • Equipment set bonuses — Group existing equipment into named sets (e.g. "Shadow Infiltrator"). Wearing 2/3/4 pieces of a set grants escalating bonuses. Adds strategic depth without requiring lots of new items.

  • The Codex / Lore Book — Defeating bosses and completing quests unlocks lore entries about the world. Pure flavour, but gives the world depth and a collection mechanic. Show a notification when new lore unlocks.

  • Milestone prestige bonuses — Every 5th prestige, earn a free prestige upgrade or a large runestone windfall. Gives players mini-goals within the prestige loop.


📊 UI / Statistics

  • Statistics panel — All-time totals: gold earned across all runs, total prestiges, bosses defeated, quests completed, time played. Idle game players love seeing big numbers about their big numbers.

  • Last cloud save date + Force cloud save button — Display when the last cloud save occurred (always visible, e.g. in the ResourceBar). Include a manual "Force Save" button for peace of mind.
