totally-not-secretly-satan-deac: How do you feel about Cookie Clicker being so easy to cheat in? People can just open the console and give themselves all sorts of stuff, but that's always going to be possible due to the "build" of the game, if that makes sense. Do you want people to not be able to cheat? Would you fix it if you could?
Cookie Clicker is a single-player game with no leaderboards or competition element whatsoever. The design philosophy behind the whole game is that it’s built like a regular old desktop program - you should be able to cheat, mod and abuse the game as much as you want. Of course, once you cheat in a gazillion cookies and unlock everything, you’ll have to ask yourself if you can still sleep at night, look your kids in the eye, live with yourself and kiss your mother with that mouth.
It’s just like moneylode on The Sims. It might be fun at first, getting ahead so quickly, but then the feeling of effort and achievement disappears.
