20 changes

Melmsie

Store

Added some new item bundles like the old web store had
Added some new titles
Changed some pricing to match the state of the economy and the value of said items

Prestige/Omega

Omega cost slightly higher now
Prestige has a cooldown again, once per 6 hours.
Omega's ramp up of prestiges required slightly reduced (aka easier early-mid omegas)

Level Rewards

Added more items
Switched out some rewards that were getting too common for other things
Added more coins in the middle/front of the track of rewards
No real nerfs for now, enjoy the new track before we make bigger changes to leveling later after fishing launch

Level Grind

Switched from random 2xp days, to every Sunday and Wednesday (this means 2 more 2xp days per month, and no more guessing!)
Increased the duration of pizza from 15m to 30m
Increased the duration of daily boxes from 5m to 10m

Sellables

In a not too far update, we'll be making changes to the sellables in the game.
- I would suggest, if you're holding them only for coin value, to not do so.
- I would also suggest if you're holding them purely for big collections, to buy now.
We'll also be making some deep fundamental changes to coin multipliers and how common they are to fix them being essentially pointless to everyone but 5 people on the market buying max sellables.

Summary

Today's changes are meant to let people who aren't the top 0.5% of grinders who also pay tons of irl $$ to have fun grinding, and to put a cap on the trillions of coins added per month due to 2xp days and those top 0.5% of people.
Those top 1% can now grind even easier than before, with just a cap on how much per 2xp day they can earn while sprinting through prestiges. There's still a flex, there's still improvement rewarded for your dedication. Now you can feel less pressure to be optimal and not sleep for 24h.
This is NOT a full solution, but we'd rather keep focusing on fishing than stop to address this fully. We'll circle back at a future date.
