I'm a sucker for games with fake desktops! There's something strange and scary about clicking a link from an email that seems like a scam, even in a game like this. Thanks for making it!

some of those emails look really suspicious but I really did get $100 so that was fun :D
Had a weird bug where windows that were overlaid over each other would be able to be moved together as a group, other than that it was great

 I liked the game a lot, not much to say because i couldn't find anything wrong with the game and overall it was an enjoyable expierence

I got so many emails that eventually I was broke. It is a nice game hehehe

i enjoyed this game a lot! my favorite character was grandma (the plot twist involving her was incredibly funny)

the game loop is actually really, really good, in my opinion. while it lacks a tiny bit of polish, something you're already aware of, it's still very enjoyable and, above all, original.

something you could consider adding, if you plan to keep working on the game, is a more noticeable indicator that you've received money. maybe a visual notification somewhere, coupled with a sound effect.

Pretty fun concept. This could be tightened up a little, and I think it could make a solid full release. well done

Developer(+1)

thanks a lot. I was thinking about making a full release though I am not sure yet. But I am definitly going to polish it a little bit

Very interesting! I really felt like I'm being an idiot putting my bank ID in some shady website :D Unfortunately, I got scammed and locked out of my mail haha. 
I encountered some bugs with the window dragging, and sometimes the windows would randomly close.

Developer (1 edit)

yeah the window can be quite annoying but sadly I couldnt find a solution in time. I hope it was still fun though :)
