Really fun concept for a game. I had no idea why I would get various bonuses. +$100 one time, not sure why. If I knew it would be more strategic, I just placed the words with the highest values and called it a day.

Cool game ! Sometimes the phrases don't make sense but it's fun.
Funny idea, hard for non english native though) found my brain melting a little from this. I feel like it is something that can get developed further, there is some potential. Also UI was suprisingly good and smooth and fitted this game very well. Good job)
I am not a native English speaker so it is difficult for me to play your game. But I understand how it works.
Interesting concept, I liked managing the alliteration bonus :-D On the last ad I could spam the submit button and get endless money :-D Graphics and sounds are minimal but functional! Really work for this LD jam!
highly impressive! very cool concept, and beautifully executed! loved the various bonuses, alliterations and little similar additions.
at the end, it seemed like the end-state didn't happen, and i was left on ad 17/17 (which i could submit infinitely). before end-glitch, final score was 258$. loved it! :)
*look mom, i do a marketing!*

@subvertissement there should be more products than that, and you shouldn't be able to spam the submit button. You've found some bugs I'll need to fix. Thanks for letting me know.
"Your ring is shiny" got me $100.
Really a nice game. Cool concept and it is really fun to play! One small issue, when I had alliteration and the text said I had the +20 for alliteration, I only got the point value of the original message without alliteration, which is 20 less than the ad value stated. Again, that's just a small bug that did not take away from the gameplay at all. Overall, a really great game, one of my favorites!
@firescape-games thanks for the feedback, and I'll check into the alliteration issue. One could say that is just the Cramzon corporation trying to slip one by its employees, but it is more likely a bug.
Interesting concept. Reminds me of when I was in second grade and had to do sentence diagrams. I made it up to ad 10 ($218) before running out of adjectives.
Fun idea! There's a lot of opportunity for some pretty funny ads. Great job!
Surprisingly fun concept! The alliteration bonus made a "word management" interesting, altohugh I don't think I found any of the other bonuses. The UI was working perfectly. It's nice that you were able to add a scoreboard as well and using the currency of the player was a nice little touch though it was funny for me since my country's currency is really bad so all my ads were basically worhtless.:)
I ran out of adjectives! This was a very creative idea. Made me chuckle quite a bit. Wish I realized I could get the alliteration bonus sooner!
Neat idea, but it felt hard to find alliterative options (particularly in the 4 word ads where you pick 3 words and the product is in the second position). Nice work!
