What even is this?

Another crackpot hand-drawn cartoon game from the developer of Snowflake's Chance and Metal Voyager. FDIFLR is an incremental game in the spirit of titles such as Universal Paperclips and Cookie Clicker.
The genre is often characterized by minimalist visuals so the idea was to have the units and upgrades illustrated as much as possible.
It is an idle/clicker game so there are short to medium periods of waiting to progress.

Is there sound?
Due to the game being designed to be played while multitasking or in the background there is no game audio, players are encouraged to listen to a podcast or watch approved educational programming on a second monitor.

Who has made this?
Game and artwork was made by Carl Morgan (CarlMorganArt). Special thanks to Dante Morris for naming the title.

So this is free?

Yep.

Who is Finn Dorset?
Stop digging.
