Good use of music to set the pace of the game. :)

I don't get it. I though it's an exchange simulator, that I have to earn lots of money by trading. But there's no bitcoin counter, so I don't know how many I have and I can get into -$. Sell/buy works weird - sometimes I "sell" and get -$, sometimes I get +$, same with "buy".
I just don't get it.

Liked the music, but I was a bit (see what I did there?) unclear on exactly what to do. Still, a solid showing!

After figuring out what to do this was a very fun game, although a bit on the easy side. The graphics are awesome.

baton4ik, yep, perhaps it's not-so-obvious, lol. I've added a hint in description

As with others, once I figured out what to do...It was very very very fun. Most definitely my favorite game as of yet! I would advise however, that it be buying and selling for certain amounts, not just when the guy tells you to. Will play again when I am bored and/or in need of humor

I bought lots of machines, they made me rich. Didn't get the hang of buy/sell.

A nice concept but I wasn't 100% sure what I was doing?

Haha. I don't really get all the talk about bit coins, but I can see this must be quite an issue for some developers. Cool to see a parody of the situation in game form.

Love the idea of "One Bitcoin" ! Well played ! ;)

Interesting idea. But really confusing at first. The chart basically means nothing and does nothing. Just have to listen to the guy? That's how I understood it atleast. That combined with having the chart (and knowing what it would mean in reality) and no bitcoin counter was really confusing.

I enjoyed the graphics a lot though. But overall I would've liked the game to be a lot clearer.

Not bad! Although it's true that after a while you don't know what's the point of all of it. I focused on only buying, which worked pretty well...

I can't run it (windows 8).
It says a lot of things including the last line "unable to share contexts".
I wish I could play this.

Really like the music. The gameplay was a bit on the light side.

Haha nice one :D The prices could do with highlighting before you attempt to buy things, but either way it was intriguing all the same!

I earned a lot but I still don't get the hurtware thing. Maybe cause I've never been in the bitcoin stuff. The rest is very good: art style, music, the mood in general.

I dont think I really understood this game, but yeah... I included this game in part 8 of my Ludum Dare Compilation series, if you'd like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/JK9Dz3oR_Xs

I sadly didn't 'get' it. But kudos for making something with humor in it that's not just for everyone. We need more of these!

Was hard to figure out what to do, so a very small tutorial or more detailed descriptions would have made it better. Nice music you generated with the linked tool!
