why do tears unlock in pairs why not make them unlockable one after the other- I don't know the reason for that sip steph I'm not sure why we do it that way but yeah that would be a question for mark or something if we were getting on it's a good question I'm not sure I guess maybe just to give folks more options on what they want to work on yeah I think I my guess is this is my guess my guess is that it's like, you know game is telling you that like hey this is the order we think that you might want to progress but we'll give you the option to to try and unlock this later thing if you want to use it but it won't make sense maybe because like there's like when you unlock steel for instance you can unlock like the step after steel but you won't be able to like use those items properly until you have steel but it might but there might be like one thing that you really want to get or like a recipe you want to get or something in that tier so like you'd rather spend you know like buying coupons and using an awesome shop to get that or something I don't know at least it gives you the option when we do it that way it might also be that we originally intended to do it that way and we just found that like it's so annoying to have too many like faces like the the space elevator faces, so we decided to just clump them together instead of having like a face for every tier I don't know only mark knows only mark
