Fun little stock market game with some good humor. Hell is a corporate enterprise after all. On my second run, I made it to 4th round but had bad luck with the news. That’s life as a day trader :D Loved the presumably hand-drawn snacks and icons. Very unique. :)

A run is quick which is neat particularly for a game jam game.

Some ideas of for improvement in case you plan to continue refining the game some more:

  • I wished there was a way to sell my items (tricks?) to customize the build and experiment some more. Maybe I just missed it though.
  • a way to see the item effects on the trade floor and not just in the shop, e.g. a tooltip
  • the zombie started its text too early or skipped through it or sth, so i only was able to see the last line of dialogue. Would have been nice to hear more of his humor

You're totally right of course! Zombie was last minute so no surprise there's some bugs with his dialogue. The inventory menu normally allows for selling but due to the late addition of the zombie in the jam there was some UI bugs, and there actually is a way to check item effects on the trading floor, just press the I key which will open up the inventory menu and hover over an item. This will bring up a description you can read in the menu. 2.0 for the postjam version is in the planning phase now with a lot more tricks and even consumables, but for now I'll get some bug fixes out after judging has concluded for those minor more annoying bugs
