IGTAP mechanics explained

Watts: the only currency

Watts come from finishing courses. The payout is your base reward multiplied by whatever multipliers you own. Early on, a single finish pays pocket change; by the time multipliers and clones stack up, the same finish pays millions. The number itself never stops mattering — every upgrade price scales with it.

Clones: your best run, automated

A clone replays your best time on a course, forever. By default a clone earns 0.1× of your reward per loop — so faster lines and bigger rewards pay off twice, once for you and once for every clone.

• Buying more clones multiplies income per course.
• Clone speed upgrades shorten the gap between payouts.
• Clone reward multipliers raise what each loop pays — the upgrade most players sleep on.

Multipliers: where the big jumps hide

• Reward multipliers raise your payout directly.
• +50% global watt boosts (mostly hidden pickups) apply across every course — see Hidden Upgrades for all of them.
• "Boost all previous courses" upgrades retroactively raise older courses' payouts so you don't have to abandon them.

Clone size

This is the stat the game quietly never explains. Hidden upgrades hand out "clone size" tiers, and an in-demo stat mentions an 8% clone-size-increase chance — but what it does is still community speculation, with the leading theory being that it controls how many clones can be active on a course at once. We'll update this section the moment the launch build (or the devs) clarifies it.
