This runs on HTML5, so it is not a PC exclusive game. Any browser that completely supports HTML5 running on any OS should be able to run it. Sean96125 (talk) 15:56, August 27, 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, I've mistaken PC for Microsoft Windows. It is indeed a PC exclusive game, since there is no enhancement for touchscreen mobile devices. Sean96125 (talk) 16:18, August 27, 2013 (UTC)

It is able to run on other devices than PC, therefore, not a PC exclusive game. WrathOfFire (talk) 03:24, October 5, 2013 (UTC)

Hacking Cookies?

Hacking?

This actually works.

Press F12, go to the "consle" menu (syntax) and paste this code;

Game.cookies = 99999999999

or Game.RuinTheFun

Admin

Who is the admin for this wiki?

According to Special:ListUsers/sysop, User:Betaclay is our sole administrator. It seems that he has logged in recently, but hasn't made many edits since last month here, and since the 5th on the Animal Crossing Wiki. We should try to get in contact with him first for help and more administrators, before trying for more drastic measures like adoption. In the meantime, we can request help from the VSTF to control the amount of vandalism going on.

Cookie clicker strategy

178.204.105.137 14:17, September 18, 2013 (UTC)Cookie clicker strategy

I think there should be a topic\discuss about the most efficient way to farm cookies. I kinda thought about this a long time ago, but now i'm just sitting here slowly farming cookies only by clicking golden cookies. Is it the way i should be farming by having ~4billion cps?

Several questions/suggestions/etc

A coupla three things...

1/ Oh man, I hate the default Wikia layout, it just begs for things to go missing and it can be impossible to track down the actual info or topic you're after even if a page does actually exist for it. Can we get some kind of general-purpose "index" page that lists off ALL the pages on the site, rather than just a small "featured" and "most recent" collection?

2/ At the same time, adding some kind of "what is?" and "general discussion" pages would be nice, to give a better overview of the whole game (other than the single paragraph on the front page) and so subjects outside of those which are already listed can be brought up.

3/ What's the intended/optimal screen resolution for the game, do we think? I reckon it's a whopping great 2560x1600 Apple Cinema Display or similar - this conclusion being reached by fullscreening the game on my 1280x800 laptop then zooming out until everything fit without any scrolling. It's more or less a perfect fit at 50%... larger than that, you need to scroll, smaller than that and some graphics start to "pull away" from the edges...

It'd be nice if a future update would allow for better scaling or fitting to lower rez screens without having to zoom, which can make the text difficult or impossible to read, maybe even with a horizontal/vertical (and standard/wide) aspect switch that rearranges how some things are displayed, or even allowing free rearrangement. I've got two sessions going, competing against each other - one on this laptop, and the other on a workplace PC. The latter is snapped into my secondary, portrait, 1024x1280 monitor, and it's very cramped. It'd be even worse on my older 1024x768 lappy (not that it would probably have the horsepower to run the game anyway, but, yknow)... Even though I've figured out that you could happily make an 8-bit version fit on the screen of a Sinclair Spectrum, so long as you sacrificed some of the graphical splendour...

Oh, I suppose, also...

4/ What are the recommended computer specs? It runs quite nicely on this i5/HD3000 laptop, only slowing slightly when I have a lot of other things running at once, mainly through virtual memory thrash... the workplace C2D/GMA4000 is a bit more stressed and prefers if I turn off particles etc. I haven't dared try it on the aforementioned PM/i915 relic in the spare room, but I figure it would probably crawl even with all the options turned off, despite the simplicity of the core routines (which, again, I figure an 8-bit computer would handle with no problems, so long as it was equipped to deal with at least 64-bit and preferably 80-bit numbers, the latter allowing representation of up to +/- 6044 quintillion with 2 decimal place accuracy, or -/+ 604,400 quint as an integer... or in other words, enough to fill (integer, positive decimal) or slightly overflow (negative decimal) an entire line of text on a 32-column screen with comma dividers in place; so long as this is satisfied, the number of calculations, screen updates, and checks for timer expiry and keyboard input plus screen writes it would have to do per Vblank would actually be quite limited, and could probably even be handled by a 740kHz i4004). HTML5 seems to be a very inefficient way to utilise a document markup scheme as a general programming language...

What's with this really creepy wiki background? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 160.129.129.31 (talk • contribs)

Cookie

I've tried clicking the cookie on the homepage but it does nothing at all. No matter how much I click it. I can't help it. Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 17:02, October 5, 2013 (UTC)

GAME STARTED

Game started is measured in gross hours, I'd also like to see how many hours I truly spent playing Cookie Clicker (= net hours).Dudlajz1 (talk) 13:41, October 12, 2013 (UTC)
