This is my first game jam. I had more than enough time, but not enough willpower to actually write as many emails as I wanted to give it a lot of content.

Bug fixes: * Minor graphical fix for selecting text * Fixed some emails going off screen * Accidentally left in a name of an actual company, replaced it with the appropriate fictional one.

This game made me mad because I still haven't gotten my 63M USD from any princes.
Russian gal said I was quite handsome though so 10/10.

I finished the game with an important deleted email. :/

I knew I should have kept that very important email about 60Billion dollar transfer or whatever it was, I couldn't read it properly and it sounded legit.

Challenging game. I included it in my compilation video series of the Ludum Dare 42 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/7ueEev7q6Kg
