This was legit the game we were going to make last year before deciding on the Flappy Bird dating sim. Cheers to you!

Yeah the text is sometimes very hard to read. Currently the micro management aspect fights with reading the descriptions I need to find a better solution for this exact issue. I have a couple of ideas I might try out post rating phase. Thanks for linking the other game I will definitely have a look at it!
Currently events just spawn completely randomly with no kind of weighting. Ideally I'd have some kind of game director that paces the action and also spawns events based on a rarity and the players performance. If these things would be there a more orchestrated challenge would be possible.
I also now would have turned the sell out button into an event so you cannot sell out at any time. So you might get a limited time sell offer that you can choose to accept or deny. However I would need to have some time to implement that properly.
I had to compromise my design a bit across the jam since I was running out of time. I initially envisioned selling out as a way to upgrade your character stats.

I'm using godot and used silent wolf as a backend service. Silent wolf is has a generous free tier and a good godot plugin. It took me under an hour to implement it in my game with their documentation. Very kind folk over there!
