How does your game fit the theme?
Bullfighter fits Loop literally through a time-looping mechanic for the stock trading. It integrates Loop thematically by portraying the existential looping, emotionless dread of corporate work.

Congrats on your first game, and being on the livestream!

I've played the web version only, but even then it was a really good game - especially kudos on giving clear instructions on how to play the game & featuring an actual notepad in the game!

I'd love to see this game grown to its fullest. Good luck, and cheers!

As a novice stock market enthusiast, I had a blast. The idea of taking notes in a notebook with so few characters is challenging, so… BRAVO!. The music is really fantastic and it accompanies the entire experience. It’s a really cool game, seriously!

This is the best entry I've played so far, and a game I would actually like to see a full release of.

Story is minimal but does exactly what it needs to. Gameplay is VERY fun and scales well through the levels. The artwork/style is minimalistic, but clearly had thought put into it and comes off as well-put together. The audio (this is one of the very very few Game Jam games I have downloaded) was AMAZING!

This deserves a winning shot from what I've seen so far. Great job man!

The graphics looked really good, not sure what you did to make the text look like it was actually behind a screen. I got to $117,000 in 5 weeks - who can beat me!!!!

I really like the note taking ability, not so many games allow that in game. Pretty chill one moment and hectic button spam another. I guess the loop ability ties to the time traversal ability?

Pretty fun game! Felt like a day trader sim haha. I guess for the sake of giving feedback about the game, its mostly just hitting a button, not much excitement or skill involved. Tbh that might even serve your implementation of the theme by capturing the mundanity and tedium of a corporate job lol. I really like the theming and the overall aesthetic of the game.

Had fun:) Could use some music tho; also I didn't really use the notes but still enjoyed memorizing things. Got 81 000$

Thank you! I had music and some (what I thought were) cool sound effects, but the browser version (as browser versions do 🙄) stopped it from playing.

Really creative, and quite fun! Having to make up your own sort of "language" was really neat! The graphics were pretty simplistic, but they work really well for the game! I enjoyed it a lot overall :D

One of my favorite game! Easily in my top 10
It's so satisfying to play, I could definitely buy a finished version

Developer

Thank you so much!

you're going to bankrupt the youths by making them think day trading is actually this fun and easy

This was super fun and creative!  Loved the aesthetic.  I kind of like not having the notes so you have to remember as much as possible!

Feels very polished! I love requiring the player to come up with their own notation system, and then challenging it with the high pace of the ticks - it's so unique!

Developer

thank you sm!

That's so cool! really unique gameplay, I really enjoyed it

The FTUE is insanely good, and if this is how stocks work, this is an amazing educational game for people who want to learn. I loved the execution and polish. I would pay for this game

Love the visuals and the concept is unique. I didn't think much of the code mechanic but looking at the comments it seems a lot more interesting with the different strats. I just marked how long the increase/decrease lasted like "1426" which accidentally led me to invest in a decline at the beginning lol

Developer

Thank you! I love seeing all the different code strategies, too!

This was a really cool take on the theme, and I really enjoyed the execution. I think that the graph scaling made things a bit tricky but still manageable, so it was a good source of difficulty. I’d be curious about how you can potentially expand on the game further by adding complexity in different ways, since the speed was already reaching the limit for me at the end.
