Just signed up with the name "buwaytress" as in here. I generally like these kind of turn based games - for a quicker experience, can we also have a text-only version? Either way, takes a second too long for loading each new explore for my liking, but still a good speed overall.
There should also be a tutorial to start out with! Good luck with the site, I'll be on it for a while haha.
I've been working on redesigning things and the page load speeds quite a bit lately so you should start to see improvements in it as time passes.
On the top menu there is a key icon where you can disable certain things in game to speed up the page loading time as well such as disabling the left menu, removing parts of the top menu, and turning off chat.
A lightweight version could be possible in the future but it wouldn't be high on the list as I would have to rewrite the game again and I just got done doing that. Took me months and its only me lol.
