5 | ''The Formula'' is an IdleGame by Creator/Jacorb90 released in 2021. It uses UsefulNotes/TheModdingTree engine that's used for ''VideoGame/PrestigeTree Rewritten'' and its mods, but doesn't really feel like them. You have a function called n(t) that increases over time and have to gain A-Power (then more powers later on) once it becomes high enough. When you accomplish goals, you unlock new mechanics and things for the formula. It is available on [[https://raw.githack.com/Jacorb90/The-Formula/main/index.html Githack]]. |

7 | !!This game provides examples of: |
8 | * AlphabeticalThemeNaming: The names of powers and their extra mechanics are in alphabetical order. A-Power has Avolve, B-Power has Batteries, and C-Power has the Clock. |
9 | * ChromaticArrangement: A-Power is red, B-Power is blue, and C-Power is green. |
10 | * ExportSave: You can copy the 4KB+ save file from the game and paste it into a window. |
11 | * LOL69: The "Nice." goal is completed by reaching 69 A-Power and making n(t)>=6e9, "How Nice of You!" by making b(B)>=69, and "Nice Goal #420" by making n(t)>=1e6969. |
12 | * NotActuallyCosmeticAward: While the Goals mainly function as just achievements, several of the goals provide bonuses to the formula and some of them boost various mechanics based on completed goals. |
13 | * ShoutOut: |
14 | ** A goal called "Cue That WesternAnimation/BeeMovie Reference" is completed for getting 15 B-Power. |
15 | ** A goal called "[[Advertising/FlexSeal Woah, that's a lotta Damage!]]" is completed by getting 2,000 A-Power. |
16 | ** Doubling as a StealthPun, one goal called "[[Franchise/ToyStory Buzz Lightyear]] was a Visionary" involves making n(t) more than 1.80e308, which in several idle games is counted as {{Infinite}}, meaning you went "to infinity and beyond" |
17 | * YearInsideHourOutside: Timespeed rises far faster than your real second count. The Clock tab seems to think hours pass while you're playing for minutes, which soon become millions of hours. |
