I will say the premise and gameplay was very intuitive. The first game I failed measurably, but lasted a long time on the second, even pulled off the victory after 500. Very good game. Only comment is on theme, I was not expecting to be able to win lol. Perhaps an increasing interest rate over time?\n","format":"md","likes":1,"spam":"N"},{"id":830358,"author_name":"Necdilzor","author_uid":"necdilzor","epoch":1650033102,"text":"Nice game!

Interest on debt really is inevitable. I found it a fun arcade-y experience, with some interesting choices to make. The debt really did fly up, and I would have liked more of a choice of how much of my money I could pay off the debt rather than almost all of it, but that's a small gripe.
