Very nice growth type game. I wish the growth felt more exponential than linear though. I do like that the wheel has to slow down before coming to a stop so you have to plan ahead a bit before booting passengers.

The start is slow but once you get the rythm is very satisfactory, I love how the wheel isn't just visual but it actually matters in the context of what otherwise would be just a clicker
a bit of a slow burn but definitely fun once it gets going. it reminds me a lot of kairosoft games.
That was nice! Thanks for letting us play even after all seriousness has been reached! I really wanted to fully update my ferris wheel. Did it start displaying stock market info??? That is SO serious 🤣 A funny thing happened after my full update though... All buisnessmen decided to enter my wheel diagonally, while walking on air, ALL IN THE SAME GONDOLA! I would also say yhat the red text from when you ccannot buy the thing you are clicking on is not really readable. Also, I liked controlling the speed to let passengers enter the wheel or not. Well done! 
Your visuals are awesome! It was fun building up this ferris wheel business. However for an incremental game the unloading and loading of guests was kind of a bummer and the speed control did not really had a real purpose. Still, you did a great job especially with your art!
Positives
- Fun, could definitely see this as a casual mobile or web game
- Music was nice, perhaps a bit drab for a ferris wheel game, but I guess that just makes it more serious
- Really well done visually, it was a cute and complete design that worked together really well
Needs Work
- As many others have mentioned, the demolish gondola vanishes your mouse and I had to reload because this blocked me
- The text is a bit hard to read with its color on the background
- The text also goes way to slowly. I'm impatient and want to click through it, but clicking skips the text when I was hoping it would just finish typing it
Overall, really well done. Great visual, audio, and enjoyable game loop
Pretty nice incremental game. I found the process of loading and unloading guests a little tedious and the coin sound effect a bit too loud.
Simply no notes, great game, great music, great visuals, the mouse cursor disappears when you wanna destroy a gondala but that's all. If I really want to add a note, I'd say that it needs more content haha I'd like to see this game with a longer lifespan, more gondolas etc. Great job !
Ok, since I've played this game fully untl I got 150/100 seriousness I'll suppose it means I really enjoyed it. Great Game! Just my cup of tea!
