Interesting idea! I enjoyed the humor. It was fun to see which stock you'd buy and wait for the price to hit a good time to buy it.
Thanks for the feedback :)
Love the gameplay, it was nice and simple. the concept was super original and fit the theme really well !! Great work Overall !! :D
Thank you, I appreaciate it :D
Incredible
Thank you :D
this game is literally patrick bateman
Ahh making a decision with gamble to more of a gamble
Yup, that sums it up pretty well :D
I really like the concept, but it's lacking a bit of feedback I would say.
Maybe adding some music, curbs and FX when you buy/sell would make it feel more like a casino and makes it more enjoyable ^^
Thanks for the feedback. The game indeed needs some polishing, but sadly I didn’t really have time for it.
Great idea but execution leaves a lot to be desired. I think more player feedback is needed to actually understand whats going on in each round. Its still quite fun for me to mess around with even if its impossible for me to know what to do.
Thank you for the feedback. I didn’t really have time to make the game better but I agree that there are parts of the game which could really use some polishing.
I wrote a descripition on the game’s page about how to play, maybe that could help.
Amazingg Idea good game
Thank you :)
We live in a society
This had delightful writing, and has a universal paperclips vibe that if it was a little less random could make it a full game
Turns out you can lose enough money to go into the green'
Interesting idea, but I couldn't really figure out what I was supposed to be doing
Great design and visuals! :)
Thank you, I appreciate the feedback :)
The random selling got me haha
That's a fun game, pretty different from other idle games. The story is pretty funny too xD
Fun intro and story (ignoring the typos) with a cool concept / implementation, just not a massive amount of gameplay.
Thanks for the feedback. I know there could be more gameplay but I didn't have much time left for it.
Hey ! I tried to play it but couldn’t understand how you were supposed to buy/sell
I updated the game's page with more information about this, but you can also read it below:
In the game you basically buy and trade stock randomly.
Buying
When you want to buy stock you get 3 different dice (could be 4 to 11 sided) which you grab and place on the three given places:
For example if you get a 7 sided, 4 sided and 11 sided die and place them in this order, that means that based on the die rolls you could buy minimum 1 and maximum 44 stock from the first or the second... or the seventh option.
Selling
Selling is pretty simple. You can sell stock randomly from your collection by clicking on the button. This goes on until you run out of stock (then you can buy again) or you just simply don't want to sell more.
Goal
You can watch as the prices change and try to buy / sell accordingly to maximise your profit and earn a higher spot on the leaderboard.
The graphics are nice and the game design is fun. I appreciate the online leaderboards also! Great job! Maybe could use some sound.
Thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you appreaciate the online leaderboard :D I agree, some sound would be nice but I didn't have much time in the end.
Pretty good game, i would appreciate a description or instructions on how to play

Points for creativity! Although there's very little decision making, as the game itself points out.
Thanks for the feedback, I know it's a bit one-sided game. I was thinking about other ways of decision-making but couldn't really think of something that would...
I love the overall idea, but the game didn't load for me :(
I'm sorry to hear that :( What device were you using? Did the Unity logo show up but the loading bar didn't reach the end?
As a casual crypto investor for few month, if this game is real life, I would have became millionaire at this point. I probably won't invest further knowing it is going to go down. But the game is very fun and simple. The dice concept is great, the story setup in the beginning is compelling. The stock are creative but it would be better to tell (Stock Index, buy count, buy multiplier) since most people might not know what it is. Anyway, awesome game, keep up the great work!
Thank you for the feedback, I really appreaciate it and I'm glad you liked it :) I updated the game's page with some info about buying / selling stocks.
