Btw, I would apreciate something to indicate when day is over
The graphics goes well with the WTF aspect. And also the random problems which happen too often for a normal computer, this person gets into crypto but doesn't manage to secure their computer, they're surely... unstable.
However, it's true it's unintuitive.
Maybe it would have been best to have the computer occupying most of our screen, with the numbers inside. It's so small it is both hard to read and occupies all our attention.
There's also nothing to incite why buying stocks (I'm not really aware I would get my share) or in the shop (which has not description).
The minigames. Mining coins seems to be more trouble that it worths, and the Invader game is meant to be simple but I have the wrong keyboard, ha.
So I was focused on managing crypto, taking the gambit "if I quickly buy and sell, I would end to have income".
Well, I'm not a really good player so I quickly lost.
Bad:
- No clear directions or instructions on what to do.
- Too high of difficulty / unbalanced gameplay.
Good:
- Graphics aren't the best, but they "work" for this game. And can tell with the level of creativity that it took a lot of effort.
- Audio is nice and not annoying.
- Webpage for game is nicely designed and aesthetic.
- Can play a PC game within a PC game.... Mind blown.
- Humor, I love the dating sticky notes and whatnot.
Overall: I love this game and the fact that it's a compo submission blows my mind. This developer knows their stuff and have made my favorite compo sub so far!

Simple mechanics that work great in this type of game.
Great job!
