Link to the game doesn't work.

I think you forgot to make the itch.io page public. You gotta update it. Reply when you do, I do want to becomethe richest person in the world, indeed ;-)

I want to become the stonks

@kossnocorp @waysneighborgo2 @angryrubberducky Itch as been updated. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Interesting idea, I fell to the free pennies scam way too much :(

Good practice tool to prepare for crypto.... not unfortunately missing the point of "harvest"

i am so terrible at getting STONKS but a few lines had me chuckling enough to keep playing

Unfortunately, the click and hover feedback on the buttons was missing so I found myself double clicking a lot. The prompts got repetitive pretty quickly and the consequences of your actions were often very opaque.

It's a shame because it seemed completely random, if there had been some logic puzzle gameplay it could have been really fun.

Cool d'avoir un jeu en français pour une fois, bon par contre ca ne m'as pas du tout aidé a comprendre tout ce que je faisais... ^^ mais j'ai trouvé ca très drôle ! ;) La seule façon que j'ai trouvé pour arriver à la fin c'est de répondre non à toute les questions mais j'ai pas finis très riche :/

As others mentioned before there is no clear relation between the actions and the results but that does somehow fit the setting very well :D

Nice game ^^

I just did a r/wallstreetbets several times and I loved it :D

I got the same pineapple question 3 times in the first 7 days, it gets repetetive really fast - maybe you could show each promt only once or reference the first choice in some way. Also the X button rarely worked for me. Other than that, quite a funny game!

Pretty cool , the humour was great, I didn't get how I could buy the stocks other than Grunker and the Pharma. I guess I was treating to seriously . It could be cool if you threw in a stock ticker / charts / news cycle, a portfolio where you could do more with your corporate actions, your stock splits, your dividends, warrants etc.

unitedfailures 2023-01-16 20:23

The best strategy I was able to figure out was to go full pharma bro, lol. Fun game, and good job

Fun little core of a game. Feels like it's mostly about memorizing what the options do and then just making sure your karma stay > 0.

I laughed the moment I saw the thumbnail, genius 😆 and was pretty simple, but fun game. Great work!
