What problem does it solve?

Designers and developers need reliable, configurable formulas to compute upgrade costs and effect scaling for idle and incremental games without hand-tuning every level; this Skill provides clear reference and configuration patterns to produce predictable progression curves and milestone behavior.

Core Features & Use Cases

• ScriptableObject-based formula types for Unity that compute numeric values for a given level, including polynomial, exponential, and milestone-driven exponential curves.
• Configurable parameters such as base values, multipliers, milestone intervals, soft caps, and options to use level as an exponent, enabling flexible balancing for clickers, generators, and prestige systems.
• Editor-friendly preview and description methods plus integration examples showing how to wire formulas into upgrade definitions to compute costs and effects at runtime.
• Use case: create a SimpleExponentialConfig for generator cost scaling, a SimplePolynomialConfig for linear stat growth, or a MilestoneExponentialConfig to add milestone bonuses and soft caps for late-game balance.

Quick Start

Create a SimpleExponentialConfig ScriptableObject with Base 10 and Multiplier 1.15 and assign it to your upgrade cost field in the Unity inspector.
