A game inspired by this tweet by sylvie:

"join me in shifting the game design overton window by making evil platformer games with bad controls"
(Source: https://x.com/sylviefluff/status/1792467583444173042)

However it turned out barely evil and I couldn't bring myself to keep the controls completely awful. I am merely human.

This is not commentary on anything I just make shit up as I go.

playtime: around 20 minutes (???) (no saving)

-CAUTION THIS GAME CONTAINS HORRIBLE VIOLENCE THAT WILL POLLUTE YOUR MIND AND SEND YOUR SOUL TO HELL-

Once, on a quiet sunday evening, you found a magical box that makes money. You take it home and decide to get richer and richer, with no end in sight. But you are not the only one who enjoys having money...

-Distinct personalities
-NOT cookie clicker and/or little inferno
-Beautiful soundtrack
-A cute fluffy cat
-Money

We made a two player game because we are two people. 8-)
