Guide

Premise
The premise of this guide is let you complete the game as fast as possible with strategies.

[SPOILER ALERT: This guide contains spoilers for each section.]

The link to the game is here.

Start to Rocket 1
Okay, now you started the game. Distance Incremental is a game about traveling long distances. You can see in the game that you have a distance, velocity, and acceleration. The distance increase according to the velocity. The velocity will increase according to the acceleration until it reaches the maximum velocity. The only thing you need to do now is wait. When you reach 10 meters of distance, do a rank reset.

Repeat this process, until you can reach rank 3, which unlocks tiers. Click the tier button, and everything will be reset. Repeat ranks and tiers over and over again (they have unique rewards) until you can reach 50 Mm, which unlocks Rockets.

Rocket 1 to Rocket Fuel 1
After Rockets are unlocked, you should go to the rockets tab. Click reset your progress to gain 1(or more) rocket(s), and repeat the process in the last section, but faster, because rockets are OP. Then, you should aim for 1 rocket runs until 4 rockets, then 2 rocket runs until 10 rockets, then a long run for 10+ rockets. Once you reach 25 rockets, you can reset for rocket fuel.

Rocket Fuel 1 to Time Reversal
DON'T reset for rocket fuel yet, as it will RESET all your rockets instead of costing 25.

First do a long run for 10+ rockets again, then before clicking the reset for rockets button, reset for rocket fuel, then immediately get the rockets you can get from the last long run you just did. Progress should be similar to before clicking rocket fuel reset. Repeat the fuel process, wait a little bit to get some rocket gain then click rocket fuel, then get rockets. At about 2-3 rocket fuel(depends on how long your runs are) you can get 1 Tm to unlock automation. Click the tab, and just do literally normal progress if you can't buy a robot. At 10 scraps you can buy Rankbot. It will automatically buy ranks for you if it can each interval, and it will bulk buy the magnitude. If you can't buy how much the magnitude is, it will buy max.(Example: Magnitude is 4 and you can buy 5. It buys 4 each interval, so it buys 4. But when Magnitude is 4 and you can buy 3, it will only buy 3 because you can only afford 3.) You can use intelligence to upgrade the Interval and Magnitude. At 50 scraps there's the Tierbot, which automates tiers for you.

At 4 rocket fuel and 5000 extra rockets, you can do a long run for 1 ly to push to Time Reversal. It will be a bit of a waiting(~2 minutes) but it shouldn't be a timewall. If it takes too long, first: check rockets. Second, press R and T. Third, refresh the page. Fourth, maybe you need to get more rockets and rocket fuel.

Time Reversal Era
After Time Reversal unlock, you can click the pink time reversal tab. You can reverse time, which make these resources lost over time instead of being produced:


 * 1) Distance.
 * 2) Velocity
 * 3) Acceleration
 * 4) Scraps
 * 5) Intelligence
 * 6) some stuff after time reversal

When you reverse time, you gain time cubes over time. There's upgrades to buy with time cubes, which really does help.

Achievements

So I(we) havn't shown you achievements for a while. You get them when you get certain milestones.

Getting achievements will help you, because they have rewards. Some achievements you can't get normally, and need to turn off stuff or enter special condition runs, but it don't matter right now.

TR Upgrades

Reverse Time, wait a little bit for 50 time cubes, then get the 1st upgrade. It boosts time cube gain by a lot. Also, time cubes give free rocket fuel. After getting the 2nd TR upgrade(300 Time cubes) and then grinding back to 300 Time cubes, exit time reversal and get more ranks/tiers/rockets/RF/automation/achievements at this points. Rocket fuel 5 is also doable at this point. Do a long run for ranks and tiers(~1 minute run) then reverse time. Get 3rd upgrade, then 4th, then 5th. After getting 10000 unspent Time cubes, exit time reversal, and do the same thing as the first exit. Then, after getting rocket fuel 6 and more Ranks/tiers, reverse time.

Get upgrades 6 to 10. Exit time reversal, and get more rockets/ranks/tiers. If you haven't got rocket fuel 6 yet at this point, get it.

Do a long run to 50 Mpc to unlock Universal Collapse.

Universal Collapse
After unlocking Universal collapse, collapse for 1 cadaver. It will reset everything except Achievements and some of the statistics. It also don't reset automation stuff.

You should sacrifice your cadaver to life essence first, then do the same thing again(as before collapsing), but time is faster. You will notice that everything is way faster. This is mostly because achievements and the life essence milestone. The grind to 50 Mpc will be pretty long.

After you reach 50 Mpc, you should collapse for 1 cadaver and sacrifice to life essence. At the start time will go 5x faster, which is huge.

The second collapse will take ~1 minute before the final push, and ~2 minutes for the 50 Mpc grind.

The third time you reach Mpc, you should collapse for 1 cadaver again, then sacrifice to life essence. The 'start with 10 rockets' boost is very beneficial to early game.

The 3rd collapse will be also fast.

On fourth collapse however, after collapsing for 1 cadaver, you shouldn't sacrifice to life essence. You will gain a 3x time speed multiplier.

5th collapse, gain 1 cadaver, sacrifice all, 0 unspent cadavers, 5 life essence

6th collapse, gain 1 cadaver, don't sacrifice, 1 UC, 5 LE

7th collapse, gain 1 C, don't sacrifice, 2 UC 5 LE

8th-9th collapse, gain 1 C, don’t sacrifice, 4 UC 5 LE

10th collapse, gain 1 C, sacrifice all, 0 UC 10 LE

11th collapse, gain 2 C, don’t sacrifice, 2 UC 10 LE(don’t forget to get more time cube)

12th collapse, try to gain 3 C, if you can’t do it, gain 2 C and the next collapse gain 1 C, after get 5 UC, sacrifice all, 0 UC 15LE

after get 15 LE, do a lot of collapse to get 2.5e5 LE(If you can get the milestones, you can sacrifice)

Pathogens Era
You should only upgrade the boosts once the first time except for pathogen gain. Try to focus on velocity upgrade. Continue the grind and reset for cadavers sometimes to unlock Dark circle

Dark Circle
Grind cadavers to buy dark core and wait for pathogen. Also don’t forget buy new Time Reversal upgrade. Then you can reach 1.8e308 uni to unlock Infinity

Early Infinity(Endorsements 1 - 9)
Just Do the same thing and buy infinity upgrade. Reset infinity upgrade after Endorsement 3 and don’t buy inf3;3 unless you have inf4;4, continue the same thing to unlock Ascension

Ascension(Endorsements 10 - 14)
Use it on what you currently need.

Stadium Challenges(Endorsements 15 - 20)
I don't know for you guys but this order worked for me:

1st Eternity

2nd Solaris

3rd Spaceon

4th Drigganiz

5th Infinity

6th Reality

-Someone thats not the first hr guide creator

The Discord server recommends the order

1 Eternity

2 Spaceon

3 Drigganiz

4 Solaris

5 Infinity

6 Reality

Pantheon and Purge(Endorsements 21 - 28)
just get equal amounts of angels and demons and don't forget to do purge runs sometimes.

they are at the bottom of the screen

Deriatives and Late Infinity(Endorsements 29 - 36)
the derivative tab allows you to unlock and boost the jerk derivative. nothing else changes

Early Elementary(1 - 20 EP)
Fermions only gives you a single bonus at once, so rotate though them to get all the gains.

Late Elementary(20 - 1000 EP)
Don't reset too quickly, and get the Double Elementary and Double Photons upgrades.

Theories(Theory Unlock - Foam Unlock)
Focus the Tree on one area at a time to maximize that bonus, then switch to another.

Switch back and forth between Preons gains and Preon cost.

Do entangled strings -> strings -> supersymetry.

Don't forget another purge run after you get the 147 achievement.

Quantum Foam ' Fome ' (Foam Unlock - Skyrmion Unlock)
This is pretty straight forward, just get the upgrades.

Skyrmions(Skyrmion Unlock - 1 Multiverse )
Focus on the upgrades to Foam, Entropy, Pion/Spinors, Ω, and Skyrmions, ignoring the lower tier stuff.

Multiverse(Multiverse unlock - 1000 Mlt)
Start with quilt 1. Do a few runs on the multiverse Prime. (You may need to click the purge run to get is started, seems like a bug.)

Boost your Hadronic high score now and then. You can get 26.33 maxing everything but Purge, Eternity, and Reality.

Multiverse 1, chose Quantum Foam and Skyrmions

Multiverse 3, chose ascension and upgrade the dark expander (it's unlocked when you start the multiverse).

For achievement 185, reset the stadium completions, and then chose Eternity as the last one.
