hiiiiiiii
Ahh the ultimate gambling simulator! It really is a NICE JAM (xd) entry! Never thought I would press the button... but here I am with the max score of 36...
And I would press even more! But the shock vfx/sfx are all the same (or at least it feels this way). You probably could randomize them a little bit. And there are too few upgrades. All this asides good game!
Btw congrats on your first GJW entry!

Great game! It's very polished - the visuals and audio are impressive and make for an eerie experience, and the pace of the upgrades felt good too! Getting a score of 30 is a very achievable goal but challenging(?) enough that you still feel accomplished for achieving it. Execellent work!!
You prize is one moment or rest, totaly worth it
simple game but very creative i Like it
Literally upgraded everything else before "cautiousness" to make sure I got my $3 what a shock milestone. Surprising amount of fun considering I'm just pressing a button!
loved the graphics, loved the upgrade names!! cool game
Surprising game to say the least, but i love gambling my life, so let's keep pressing.
Wow, really cool game. I see you're a fan of odds like me :D
The theme and atmosphere are really really cool. Imho if you keep working on the atmosphere and you add some more mechanics you might end up with a nice little commercial game.
the first thing i maxed out was impatience...
In every aspect besides game design, this was incredibly well made! I couldn't help but feel disengaged despite the gravity of the situation, especially when grinding out the ending with all upgrades and achievements. I don't know how I'd improve on the concept, tho.
Cool (and slightly terrifying) game! Reminds me a bit of a project of mine about probabilities, check it out on my itch page if you want to maybe get some inspiration. You should also include a flashing lights warning within the game, just to be extra careful. I like how you are constantly a little bit on the edge, but still want to press that button. Good job!
I love the part where you get shocked. Again. and again. and again
very sadistic of you I approve
Did I win? What did I win? hahah nah great work!
Oddly satisfying. Look forward to the multiplayer version.
Finished the game :) Only saw "milestones" after reaching 30 clicks... It buzzed me at 30th and it was my 5th (last) life, but it still counted as winning :) Had fun, very simple yet addictive, felt the need to finish.
I couldn't dream of more
Good game, but really short
