Well, that was pretty fun! It reminders of of the board game Stock Ticker. You did a great job of explaining the rules. And, a very impressive use of a wide range of tech. Nicely done :)

This was a very polished game. I think you did a really good job of communicating to the player what the games mechanics were. I knew exactly what I was supposed to do but I feel like it was maybe a little bit overwhelming how much choice you had. I think it would have really helped if each deal had a per unit price rather than just the total price. I'm really impressed with how good the simulation was though. Also for a game jam I doubt many people will want to play through 5 whole years. I had around $8000 near the start of year 2 and called it a day there. Great job on this! I'm amazed it was made in 3 days.
very clever strategy game and very topical!
Wow, very cool idea! This is the only harvest trading game I've seen this jam, and it's really well-executed. The tutorial was phenomenal, letting the player have some freedom but also guiding them toward understanding all the relatively complex systems. I like how you restricted it to three resource types but still have a lot of interesting choices between contract timeframes and supply/demand curves. Great work all around!
Nice way to approach the theme. Very chill music and atmosphere. I tend to be very bad at these kinds of games though because there's so much going on; would have appreciated something like a price history for each cereale
Nice game! I liked the UI and the music was good.
I thought I had devised a clever strategy until the price of rice exploded. This was a pretty fun game! I could see this being turned into a really fun boardgame or multiplayer game. Visuals worked well and the music and sfx were perfect. Great job!
Really well made trading game. The way the prices fluctuated were well balanced and the music set the mood well (plus the addition of the death counter really added more to the mood even if its purely informative).
Fun game. Thought I had a hold on it, until the prices really started fluctuating, and wheat went from $4 to $34 in the space of a few months. Made me pay attention and think all the entire time.
The tutorial was clear and concise.
I noticed the death counter at the start, figured it was something that was never added, and then bam, the quiet consequences of my own actions.
I have got something for every type of reader. Whether you're looking for a place to discuss the latest Bitcoin news https://crypto.news/free-bitcoins/ or find something to contribute to, this is the place for you.
I'm curious, has anyone played that game as a practice before actual trading? At least, that's what I'm planning to do just to get a taste of it.
Well, if you're planning to give trading a try, playing such games is definitely not enough, but if you're willing to just give it a taste, you can go for it. Just don't forget that real-life trading is much more complex, and you should consider charts and graphics to make proper decisions. I had a question "Is [Koyfin similar to Yahoo Finance](https://www.koyfin.com/compare/yahoo-finance-alternative/)?" when I was looking for a proper platform with all the useful tools, and it didn't take me long to figure out that Koyfin would be a better option for me.
