Instructions

(GAME IS BEST EXPERIENCED IN TURBO MODE.) How to play: Watch the current value of the stock as it unpredictably increases and decreases. Try to buy shares when the value is low, and sell them when the value is higher than what you bought them at. You can see whether you're making a profit or a loss by hovering your mouse over the "i" icon next to the Buy button. The goal is... I dunno, just get a lot of cash and try to always sell at a profit. There's also a small chance for the stock value to have a random sharp increase or decrease, so watch out for that.

Description

I was inspired to make this because I was learning about investing in my personal finance class and I thought "hey that would be a fun game to make". Here's a challenge: Try to get more than $5 million. It shouldn't be that hard. I suggest using the Adjust Speed slider to your advantage. Version history: - v1.0 (9 Dec 2022): Game released. - v1.1 (10 Dec 2022): You can now press the B key or S key to set an exact number of shares you want to buy or sell respectively. - v1.11 (10 Dec 2022): Fixed a bug where you could sell more shares than you had and get infinite money. I know, I'm a horrible person and I ruined the game. - v1.2 (30 Aug 2023): Clicking the minus button next to the number of shares to sell when the number is 0 now sets it to the total amount of shares you own. Likewise, clicking the minus button next to the number of shares to buy when the number is 0 now sets it to the maximum possible number of shares you can buy at the current value.
