I liked this game - I must get the grind, I'm retired enjoying the sun :D
The switch to the stock market and back is easy and interesting to the strategy !
This was fun :) !

I managed to retire by playing the stock market! Now to try this in real life... This game makes me hate the world, but that might just be my disillusion with capitalism. Could use some music - especially at the beach scene. I like that there are two games you can play and they interact.

Nice work!

I really like the concept and mechanics of switching between collecting money and investing into the stock market! The movement, specifically the jumping in the collecting money stage, felt a bit sluggish to me, but that just motivated me more to invest. I love the names of the different stocks :)

Cool game! I love abusing the stock market :-D My notes are that here could be more obstacles in collecting money stage :-]

There was supposed to be a line graph in the stock market menu?

Overall, I found the game to be quite fun! While very short, gaming the stock market (shitcoin, my beloved) was quite fun once you figure out how to profit from it.

My only real gripe is that the platforming "collect the money" segment is quite sluggish to play. Not really in the slow, methodical way that is satisfying to play, but more like you're platforming in a vat of molasses, if you catch my drift. The tax collectors are also braindead easy to avoid;  a couple of shakeups in the AI couldn't've hurt. But I suppose that is the point: why run from tax collectors when you can $$$GAMBLE$$$!!!!!!

Overall, a short fun game about gaming the sock market! Good job!
