Gah, I'm a sucker for these kind of games... I know I should just close the tab and let it be over with, but I'm MAKING SO MANY COOKIES!
I did have a bit of a crisis when I got up to alchemy labs though; the description reads: "Turns gold into cookies", which sounded like an awful idea to me, both from an economic and sustainability perspective. However I eventually caved in, reasoning that this was an imaginary universe, and when I eventually closed it this problem would cease to exist. ALso, maybe when I got to antimatter stage they started using whatever transformative technology they had to create gold to replace that lost in the alchemy labs.
