About the Game

The stock market roguelite

A price line scrolls across the screen. You're on it. Jump above to bet the price goes up. Drop below to bet it goes down. Guess right and your money grows. Guess wrong and it drains fast. That's the whole game — read the line, pick your side, hang on.

Every level actually happened

Coffee. Bitcoin. Gold. The dot-com crash. Every level is built from a real price chart — stocks, crypto, commodities, currencies, and more. Six tiers, each wilder than the last. The lines you're riding aren't random. They're history.

Push your luck, don't blow up

String correct bets into streaks that multiply your earnings. Hold the pump button to crank up your risk — bigger rewards, but way faster losses. Cash out or ride the streak until you're wiped out. Hit zero and you're done.

Draft cards, shape your run

Between stages, pick cards that reshape the next level — obstacles on the chart, passive boosts, one-time power-ups. When you die, you wake up in a basement clinic. Talk to shady NPCs. Unlock new skills at the black market. Go again.
