Wowie, this game was pretty funny! It was simple, quirky and definitely in theme! Loved it!

Greatest looking-through-couch-cussions-for-change simulator.

Really fun game. Sometimes I'D like to read the text faster, but the small breaks are important for the mood of the game I think :)

Kinda Funny, And perfect take on the theme :) Altough I want peanuts now

I enjoyed it. It took times for me to get my first lost hope.

Great innovation there. It made me read for a while. You can add more humor to it. Then it will make more people to stay and read. Over all a great game but i'm not sure if it fits the theme.

Great innovation and game design. This took clicker games to a whole new level. Needless to say, I loved it. Good job :)

strange for clicker to spend value to nothing)

Loved the cool concept! It's very unique. I'd love to see a Post-LD game like this with some kind of progression.

Funny game! A few improvements I might suggest: - Either remove the typewriter effect, or have it finish instantly with a click. - With the longer sentences, sometimes word wrap would split a word, and it looks funny. - Order the inventory so that items you can do something with are at the top. Despite this I found myself clicking for quite a while! Well written, entertaining, and I think a good use of the theme!

+1 for the faster text - otherwise pretty cool. :) Much potential for further development.

Woooah, your game is pretty similar to mine in some ways!!!! Really nice! I just think you should add some sound to it.

It's like A Dark Room but rude. Like everyone else said, I wish the text was faster, but it's still pretty compelling to see what else you'll find. Is there an end state to it? I got the shop and bought and drank a bunch of beer, but then it seemed to stop. Did I miss anything?

atraxgames 2019-10-13 16:29

To popular request I update a version with skippable text. @jelch thanks for your feedbacks, in the new version I implemented some of them. @dovakla For now there isn't more but I'm planning to add more content in the future

Nice, fun, and slightly "meta" take on the clicker genre! I enjoyed it up until the point where I could drink beer -- after which I wasn't sure what to do. It would be great to have more stuff going on in a post-compo version! For now, a minor suggestion would be to center-align the item list, as it currently looks funny and leaves a lot of empty space if one switches to full screen (and without the full screen, it's a bit annoying to scroll up and down as the list grows longer): screen.png:

atraxgames 2019-10-16 15:14

@xlomid Thanks for your feedback. I uploaded a new version that fixes the fullscreen layout problem and also adds... a dwarf.

trevor-shoe 2019-10-16 16:16

Nice work, reminds me of the beginnings of some of my favorite clicker games... A Dark Room and Universal Paperclips. Made me hope it was going somewhere, but this is a game jam, and I liked the slow addition of the gold and store. I've always liked the undefined and expanding feature set these games have. A little slow to get moving with the rocks and gold!

the-osk 2019-10-16 16:33

Great entry! The clicker genre seems like a perfect fit for the theme. I was afraid at first the text would just loop without anything happening, but there was a a reward after all!

yomissmar 2019-10-16 18:59

It was funny and I managed to get a crazy ammount of rubber ducks so yeah, I liked it. Good job!

derek-volker 2019-10-17 11:21

Really nice catch on the theme and with a nice implementation. I guess it only lacked more content, but due to the time constraint its understandable.

Good job!

youngblade 2019-10-24 17:46

An interesting little clicker game. The beginning was quite amusing and the things found were funny as well. Didn't seem to do much after the dwarf (which was a fun addition). Good luck on future development!

gullyngames 2019-10-25 14:19

I liked the humor in the game. It was a while before I decided to get a whole lot of beer, and got a dwarf. This could make a fun mobile game. Good job!

exilegl 2019-10-25 17:10

Cool text flow effect. Game reminds me a bit of that old don't press the button flash game with all the attitude from the button lol, love the humor. "You hit the rock with your bare hands - You found a lot of pain". Should have guessed :p Perhaps an upgrade that lets you search more quickly would be cool. I like the system of currency with the rocks that you have to then forge through various strange stages into something valuable.
