To the Moon (itch) (doglessheadgames)

To the Moon is a game all about buying and selling stocks to make a profit!

The goal of the game is to earn 5000 gold.

There are 3 phases in the game.

In the first phase, move the character around, collecting gold, avoiding the enemies, and buying stock from the guys in the corners of the maze. You can have up to 6 sets of stock at any time, they are shown on the right.

In the second phase, move the character to the sell buttons and interact to sell stock. Stocks rise and fall and you want to sell them at their peak if possible. Stocks will also decay (as indicated by the hearts) so if your stock only has a single heart, sell it or lose that investment.

The third phase is a brief respite. Study the wall to the right to determine which stocks are the best to buy. High value stocks will have greater fluctuations in value, stocks on a downward trend could be risky but profitable investments. Sometimes the stockbrokers will sell a stock at half price, so it's worthwhile to know the value of stocks.
