This is probably the most enjoyable clicker game I've ever played. It's straightforward, it teaches you things through trial and error instead of a lengthy tutorial, and the news actually helps (sometimes)!
By the way, winter is coming. Wait, never mind, it's not coming. Just kidding, it is. Winter ends and immediately it's winter again. Just kidding none of the winters ever happened. 🤣 Best season cycle ever.
Nonetheless, such a solid game. Well done
It incorporated the theme on a very creative way.
The sound and music were very nice, some of the SFX on the menu could be a little lower to match the rest of the game.
Overall a nice and calming experience.
I wish there were some tooltips on mouse hover for what some of the later purchases were. A few of them were hard to tell what text they related to.
I felt like the news section could be a bit clearer on what it meant exactly for the prices/profits/losses
It would have been really nice if it kept the selection of what I wanted to trade. Otherwise it is just a ton of clicking - and especially misclicking :stuck_out_tongue:
Here's my cash so far -

Would have been nice to have a bulk-buy option for buildings, otherwise really nice experience.
Nice work!
I would have really liked the news mechanic to have a more noticeable effect in your earnings, as my experience was that I could continue spending money in cryptocurrencies when they were being regulated without any down sides. This could have made me use the "sell" button a lot more.
But anyways, congratulations on the fun game!
It would be nice to have current money-per-second indicator and ability to click for money to make it full-sized clicker fighting cows and cookies :)
Great entry, good luck!
Unfortunately, I feel like I didn't get to use the main twist to this mechanic, which was the news feed and fluctuating prices. It was tough correlating the news to what item was getting affected and how - plus the price changes never seemed to last more than like 10 seconds, so it never really affected the game too much.
Other than that, I really appreciated the vibes you created :) Good job
Really liked the entry, well done!
I found it hard to track if a price changed.
It would be nice if hovering over an item told you what it is.
