This was way more intense than I was expecting - and I love it! I found myself clicking frantically, trying to keep my eye on multiple sections of the screen simultaneously and failing spectacularly, but had an absolute blast doing it
The humour throughout was great, particularly loved the Croaker feed which was very true to life.
I did not expect to enjoy a stock exchange game as much as I did. I was really invested and made a horrible investment in AMPH that might have caused my wife and kids to leave me, but what do they know, I'm gonna hit it big one day, and then they'll see, they'll see.
The music was great as well, didn't get boring, and added a lot to the excitement. Well Done!!!
I still don't understand stocks but this was still fun! #POND Gang
This was really impressive. I don't know much about the stock market, but I feel like I have experienced it now :D Great work!
See...this is why I couldn't make it as a stock broker. While I should be focused on the task at hand, I'm instead reading tweets and missing important news releases. Anywho, I enjoyed the concept. Definitely takes some getting used to. I really like the humor you included in the writing, as well as the music/sounds and overall vibe. Nice job!
I have no idea how stocks work, but this felt like a good simulator of it. It did feel like things were happening so fast that I couldn't really focus, but in a way it adds to the experience of panic-induced business decisions. Croaker was a nice touch, as it aided in the stock-infused mania with its hyping of the market
Thank you! The game actually ran at half the speed until we decided it would be funnier if it was absolutely hectic!
This game makes me think I should YOLO trade my way into the 1% lol
Very fun to try and buy the dips and make numbers go up! I honestly never looked at the new feeds though lol
This is a hilarious & well realized concept. I greatly enjoyed panic-selling and panic-buying my Fronks.

I have never been addicted to games with the stock exchange or itself, but I liked playing this game. The visual part looks incredibly good.
Thank you! I love the Worry Stonks!
This brought back so many bad memories lol. Great concept, I'd never expect a game like this in this jam!
Thank you! We wanted to convey our love of losing thousands on the stock market!
interesting describes this game best
