The visuals for this one are very well done. As others have said, it emulates that vibe of the old Windows 98 GUI. Only thing that's really missing is that this OS should brick itself now that it's on the open modern net. :P
The visuals were unique and genuinely quite engaging. Some of the UI elements felt a bit weird to interact with; namely, the pump. Once I let go to sell some stock, hovering over where the handle was didn't actually let me change. I had to move the mouse slightly up to actually interact.
I found the game honestly quite easy overall, and didn't really find myself engaging with the core mechanic of the jam. The pump/toilet were too good of a combo that the risk of just losing it all with the spinner. As others have said, there should be some cost to it. Though, given this feels very pre-dotcom-bust era, you could lean into consequences of that more? It definitely gives me "day trader trying to make it big by riding america.edu/business.biz" vibes.

Art is very fun. Sometimes the windows freaked out, but thats problem on me for clicking to much. I love to click.
I love the art you perfectly captured the windows 98 feel!
YO IT’S SAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But… I was quite confused about what the challenge was.
I like the premise, and the visuals are wonderfully nostalgic! I wonder if making the spinner be automatic and randomly affect the price of stock more often - almost like its a wildcard antagonist that you are constantly battling against - would make the game feel more frenetic and immersive?
Visuals are great and the game premise is also intriguing. Yet, it doesn't really challenge the player. The toilet and the pump are making the game too easy. Maybe add a cost to these two things?
Very visually appealing, but does seem to need some sort of push against the player, it's very easy to rack up the dough.
My favorite game (totally not cuz I made the toliet png for you at 3 am)
Looooved this one! The text to speech voice was cool, and the whole interface was really nice. Great work!
I found the game too easy once I figured out the pump/toilet thingy and then the spin became obsolete I think?
I liked the experience tho and would like to see slightly more, maybe a money goal or something ?
Good job on your game ! Have a good one :)
The spinning wheel is barely usable here since it makes the game harder to predict. It's cool, a bit stressful tho.
pretty good game but I don't think it fits the theme well ): i barely used the spinner
