@exploma The life of a currency is certainly confusing. You're not alone.

At first i was confused, then i got the joke! Of course, the life of a bill is a bit boring but the joke sets the innovation off the roof, supported by a nice little soundtrack!
Very creative, well done!

The in depth gameplay of this piece of beautiful art. The advanced tactics and epic battles had me awe struck and I am completely convinced that this is the game of the year

Game gave me a good laugh

I was left empty after I played this game. But I think it was intentional, had a good laugh at my confusion at the end. 10/10 for the options menu.

Well played sir, well played

Ha! I kind of stared at it for a while like "...am I done yet? Is there something I should do before I'm done?" which is a more existential question than I think I've had to answer playing an LD game before. Well done.

Brilliant, it makes you want to leave it on just to figure out if there is something more. Is there ... Tell me ... I need to know.

LOL. I suppose you didn't had the most stressful weekend. Thumps up!

@philippem I've asked the bill the same question and have not received an answer. So as far as I know, that's all it does. BUT if there IS more to what it can do, PLEASE tell me. I'm dying to know as well.

@grllle I was prepared to engage in a gloriously stressful weekend with my peeps for our 4th Ludum Dare...until we saw the theme. Nothing we came up with sounded fun or worth making. So we decided to skip the event this time.

Roughly 12 hours later, I was speaking to a friend about how bad the theme was. I felt really disappointed on how things unfolded this time around and that's when it hit me. You could literally play as currency, which would fit the theme perfectly.

And so I trolled out the idea for the simulation game, submitting around the 28th hour mark of the event.

So far I'm happy about the reactions it's getting. My intentions were to make people laugh at such a stupidly simple thing while staring at a lifeless bill of currency. I always strive to make something that will produce some sort of emotional reaction, this time being laughter.

This game probably has the most inovative, and engaging gameplay in 2019! And the story! Oh the plot is so thick and engaging, I don't want to spoil it, but the emotional journey the bill goes through, oh god! This is a hidden gem of a game! I loved it so much!
