This is an awesome game, I really like the idea, the visuals are great too, the music great, it's a very good game
This is so fun and creative! One of the most fun I've played so far. The writing is funny and it makes me feel a strange sort of "call of the void" -- what if I did just click all the popups and scams? It was oddly cathartic in a chaotic sort of way. The diversity of the art and messages and the implementation of a global leader board are really impressive for a 4-day jam. Also the music was excellent and fit the tone perfectly. Nice work!
thank you so much! our artist / composer really did an amazing job, we’re so glad you feel the same <3 the leaderboard was a late-jam addition using SilentWolf which surprisingly wasnt too difficult xd
I've lost -£48M while gambling :( No, I mean I gained $48M while gambling, YEAH!!! Oh, the goal of the game, I forgot... :)
I also have a keycap that popped out of my keyboard while playing the spamming minigame :o)
I never thought it would be this hard to spend money, it reminds me of the movie Brewster's Millions (never saw it, only heard about it). It was fun, good job!
I LOVE THE GAME IS COOL (^◕.◕^)
This is just the meaning of what a perfect game is , what an amazing game is , i cant thank you enough THAT WAS FUNNNNNN , I ENJOYEDDD SOOO MUCHHH GOOD JOBBB
eee thanks so much! <3 its amazing to hear how many people loved the game >.<
This is genuinely an amazing game and i loved every minute of it (haha get it...) and the delta rune references were peak, I am alone on a late night. The custom creation of windows xp for the menus were genius and the art was amazing. The audio started out calm and peaceful but as the timer got closer to 0 with the music ramping up it got really stressful but also exciting, music was genuinely peak. Loved the jeff pesos name and the leaderboard at the end was quite cool to see how well i did (i did pretty well, just below the devs at #3). I only wished that that there were more windows/games to do where you could spend the money and more adds to keep up the stress!
congrats on the top 3! we’re so glad that you loved the game and the soundtrack (the soundtrack is defo our proudest part too!) we’d love to add more minigames and other mechanics in the future, but currently we’re working on new content for our original game, A Sprinkle of Steel, so feel free to check that out :>
This is so good! I love the art style and the humor you used (Jeff Pesos, Elden Bracelet, lol). It was a little difficult to tell what exactly was happening, but I still really liked how chaotic it was!
Wow what an interesting statement on the scale of a billion dollars. I was frantically trying to buy and spend everything and could only spend 300 mill xD
thank you! it really is insane how much it is lol, all of the scam prices felt fully overinflated too and yet its still so difficult!
I am so bad at spending money. It devolved into clicking every single scam pop up add I could possibly find and spamming gambling... Just like real billionaires lol. Fun game I loved the music and it was super tense too
thank you so much! <3 neither of us on the team could ever get down to £0 remaining lol, our strat was to micromanage gambling and the auction apps while just hoping it wasnt covered up by popups xd
Very good take on the theme. Got to fifth, glad it’s not possible to spend all that money. It would be even better if despite all of the spending you still made money because of interests.
5 Minutes is the perfect time, the minigames dont have time to get repetitive and it gets very hectic especialy when the popups starts! Good job everyone!
thank you so much! it felt so good in the balancing phase when we had the music syncing with the popups, so we’re super happy that you enjoyed it :> <3
So good! I go to the podium. Super fun and good game!
ggs – you actually got the highest non-playtester score! ty for the kinda words :>
This totally caught me off guard haha. Loved how you built up the tension around spending money, it was both funny and engaging. Felt like being Jeff Pesos for a moment. Very creative and immersive, congrats! The final countdown in the lasts 10s was total epic!
thank you so much! we spent a while getting the countdown to perfectly match up with the song, so we’re glad that the ending countdown was a big hit :>
the soundtrack was awesome!!
Nice work! It did a great job of stressing me out lolll- idk how Mr. "Pesos" does it. Also it was a little heard to read sometimes but oveall cool submission :)
This game was very fun! I really enjoyed your soundtrack and liked all the different things you could do to lose money :D
Eventually I just resorted to gambling and answering the popups but it was still fun :)
The only thing that wasn't fun was the fact that I tried to lose my money so hard and still ended up being super rich in the end! I hate capitalism T.T
aww thank youu! ive relayed the kind words to the composer half of the team <3 we’re so glad you had fun, but do admit that it is quite difficult to spend all £1,000,000,000 lol, our best scores came from numerous playtest experience xd
The menu is amazing but the typo is really hard to read.
Also the tutorial is a bit long to be honest. GG tho
I really loved the concept! I even felt a little nervous as the timer kept counting down! The music added an amazing touch to the experience. Overall, I think this is a really good and complete game for a game jam!
aww thanks so much! this year round we tried to reduce our scope and publish a game which was as bug free and robust as possible while still being enjoyable and balanced. we’re so glad that you enjoyed the music and the game <3
loved the narrative, the text was sometimes heard to read.
after playing this game, i finally experienced what it feels like to be rich
