Game Review Time

What I liked

The game has a charming concept, which matches the theme relatively decently. I enjoyed the small jokes in there such as the "Robin hood, taxes are stealing your income time to take it back" line. I also found the idea of the tower becoming haunted to be quite funny. The small animations of the players swaying side to side worked well. 

I also quite liked how the ghost mechanic and tax mechanic worked differently to the rest, it wasn't just hover and wait.

I also liked going to the vast skyward abyss.

What I didn't like and how to address it

After a certain point the music stops, leaving me in a haunted tower, with my tax evasion, and surveillance state company that mandates people's happiness, the music was the last thread of my humanity and in losing it, the weight of my actions pressed down upon me. 

truly the CEO experience.

Anyway!~ I would have probably liked to have seen more sounds being implemented, such as a sound for picking money, happiness, cleanliness etc. 

The game as it is right now, prior to the ghosts showing up feels quite static, which whilst partially part of the business tycoon genre, those have some kind of progression indicator. A bit of visual and/or audible stimulation would be good, such as the time of day passing, and the profits coming in each morning, or a cool down indicator until the next profit. You could tie it in to people clocking in and out. 

The current money scaling feels a little steep, I never felt like I was making enough profit to get over that hump and feel a sense of power and accomplishment which most other tycoon games are built to do. I would maybe recommend making things a tad bit cheaper in their progression.

Potential Improvements

Add a little bit more variation in downtime! A few more animations would be good, such as an animation for constructing the floor. The guy at the top could progressively get rich-er instead of changing to a random sprite.

Overall Thoughts

I have become capitalism, destroyer of worlds. Thus I have decided to charge you for this game review, £2 please! Joking aside, the game overall was fun, with a relatively nice sense of progression. A lot of the changes here are minor and do-able withing a post jam update or two!
