Silly yet interesting game. I wish it had better art as well as audio.

What a silly lil’ game. I love how everything starts to spasm out especially with the addition of jets.

The Soul of the CardsI think it was a good idea not to have a single “wealth” bar but instead have a bit of viarety so it’s not a simple cookie clicker (even though you do mostly click buttons very fast haha). I did get the negative cash bug but I could fix it by just selling my jets :)

of Mice and MazesReally fun and challenging decremental game with a nice debt mechanic and an interesting use of different forms of wealth. I love seeing what I currently own in the background and how it becomes part of the gameplay. Great job! :)

Mission Control: 3, 2, 1, Liftoff!Love the idea! Would have been fun to allow people to go into the negatives for a leaderboard, I managed to get to -100K or so but it fixed itself eventually

New Years FrenzyThe anti-cookie clicker!!! It's so cool how our games took the same base idea of "you're a rich person with too much money" but went in completely different directions. We were originally trying to imagine a game very similar to yours but couldn't figure out how to make the mechanics work as a cookie clicker ("If you have a lot of money, why don't you just buy the expensive things right away?"). You totally cracked it! Needing to sell your shares to access your wealth is a great way to get the cookie clicker mechanic work with this theme. I really enjoyed playing -- it's surprisingly hard to get rid of all your money! I got down to 400k. Great job!

You're Too Rich!Appreciate your nice comment! The idea about needing cash actually came from real life - Billionaires might have a lot of wealth but a lot of it is tied up in stocks. The thing that is missing from real life is that you could take loans. But I thought that wouldn't make sense for this game
That basic idea came pretty fast, then I just rushed to make it a game
I love how everything begins to shake vigorously when there's just too much - would love it if there was some sound effects for clicking buttons but genuinely an awesome concept and game!!

Limbless Liam!Haha, yeah! Even the titles are surprisingly similar. Selling your own company to make yourself poorer is a really clever twist

downstraimLoving the idea for this game ;) I really liked your art and the spin you gave it with retiring market guru's and houses causing even more cash. First time I ended up with more money than I start with, love it!
