Hi! 

I really like this as a concept! I have some suggestions:

First of all it'd be nice to explain the investing a bit more. I have NO idea how it works.

And second, maybe make the fridge stay open forever, because is there really a need for it to close? Because I misclicked many times and then had to open it again (unless this is intentional xDD)

Good job! You should make a post-jam update just to polish it a bit :)


Would be awesome if you checked out my game as well, thanks!

Thanks for feedback guys! It really needs a bit more work, I started panicking one day before the deadline and cut a lot of features :)

So I really like the idea and premise but the execution isn't quite great.

It felt like having a wife/date doesn't add anything to the gameplay other than forcing me to pay more money😂 soda makes you happier than any girl can apparently. investing money isn't at all rewarding but rather a way to lose your money😂😂 unless there was something I'm missing but I invested a large sum of money and I was getting back so little.

The upgrades are so expensive and they don't feel as rewarding.

The game has great potential but it needs some work, clicking an object over and over again for such a long time needs to feel good, you need audio, effects, and other additions. 


I think this has potential if expanded upon. Good job though!

I'll echo what others have said about the tutorial. Especially since I've never played a clicker game before, I didn't know what to do. Overall, pretty good game.

After playing this I definitely do not want a wife anymore, that drink chugging hag was horrible. What a monster! Even on 50x a bit slow and now my finger hurts, I had to stop before I got to Worker Level 5! Nice clicker game :D

A tutorial would be nice and I wish there was a bit more to do but overall ok

It's an okay tycoon game, but I think it could be a lot better. As it stands, it's just a little bit too simple. Nice effort though!

Fun cover art, too clicky game.

Its good, but it needs some instructions. And the money needs to be faster in the beginning.
