Very fun game!
Such a creative concept! There's something delightfully naughty about committing both math fraud and tax fraud. Due to the high variance in numbers from one equation to the next, and to the pressure of the timer, my strategy quickly devolved into "feeling out" what would give me the highest score rather than trying to think about the equation much. It would be interesting to play around with a game that doesn't have the same constraints and see how the fun would change.
very creative and fun :) good job
As other commenter said, I had to take a bit of time to figure out the controls, but other than that the game is lovely!
Didn't know it's possible to make accounting fun!
I loved the premise and the game's creativity. The only complaint was that it took me forever to figure out the controls. For folks who are wondering you have to click and drag the PEMDAS in the calculator.
Other than that it was fun. I loved seeing money go up :)
Nice concept and also liked the game mechanics. I think the instructions part can be shorter, or maybe allow players to close it when it pops up. Overall, great game!
This is a neat concept and the art direction on this game was immaculate! That said, having to sit through so long at the beginning every time I wanted to replay the game was not ideal. Something to allow the player to progress once they know the instructions, instead of having to wait several minutes each time, would have been very helpful! I also found the high variance in goals each day somewhat telling, in that it was a tell for me whenever the goal was very high that something with an exponent was going to come up and I better nail that one. It also felt kind of frustrating when I completed a day with time to spare and then received a bunch of equations that allowed embezzling ludicrous amounts. (I assume that was intended, tbh - it certainly added to the vibes you were going for!)
In short, 10/10 representation of the soul sucking nature of working for a company like AmazingOn. Let me commit tax fraud faster, please!
Really unique gameplay idea! I had a lot of fun, but I wasn't great at it. I wish it reset the day instead of putting me at the beginning of the whole game.
Bro made math fun! Allowing the player to adjust PEMDAS was a great idea.
Looks very polished, nice art, also of the page itself! I noticed I just try out whatever gives me the best score and don't think too much about it, possibly due to the time pressure.
The concept is so fun! I love math puzzle games and this really scratches the itch in a nice way. Definitely would love the be able to skip the cutscenes or speed them up, but really cool project! Definitely unique haha.
I really like the idea of the game, the art is very cute and I like the printer animation. A few things I'll point out, restarting the game is painfully slow, someway to skip those cutscenes would be nice. The scale of money is a bit confusing, like why would I bother working out how to gain $6 when I have $2million left to go. Anyways, good job! I had fun :)
