hopeless startup simulator, made for the Profectus Creation Jam, and won first place... somehow??
Everybody has some great ideas for the future, but not everybody wants to do the work to get there.
"this crazy idea" puts you in the role of a programmer as their friends and family barrage them with startup ideas, that are all so mind-numbingly stupid that they're doomed to fail.
But... you're a nice person, right? You wouldn't say "no" to a good friend.
Or would you?
Can you break the cycle?

fun game where you threateningly force young children to ask their parents to buy an overpriced website that lasts for about 10 seconds, interesting idea, and would definitely improve upon this
i love it when the protagonist claps back
5 stars just for how hard I laughed at the "ideas"... also cried. Too realistic. FML!
17 mins :)
Extremely accurate portrayal of how startups work. 5/5

It took me way too much time to realize that all you need to do is to ignore the marketing and dump all the code into features
340-0-300 with hackathons, spam pipe bombs, infinite run
The javascript alert whenever you go to begin a new startup takes you out of full screen every time. Very annoying
why can i mail people pipebom b
developer response: a very persuasive way of getting them to use your product
i got kinda bored of it
in the end you just press 2 buttons and wait for energy to run out
