Update: The fun wears off quick when you realize that the markets are manipulated by the dev to the point of being impossible to compete in.

The General X companies won't be increasing jobs available anymore, so the wage market will be freed up. Other than that the market shouldn't be manipulated in any negative way, or would you disagree with that?
So, they are being manipulated?

#25A short description: in this game you are on a quest to make as much money as possible. Income sources including regular pleb level jobs, speculating currencies/shares, running your own business and gambling. If you have any questions or proposals, I'm all ears!

Yes, that's how it works. Making $10 isn't that hard though, just check back a little more often than once every 10 days.
it's not the difficulty that concerns me, it's that your game is arguably punishing me for not playing it every day. I know it's a common practice to try to maximise DAU on games these days but I won't be playing it if I'll be penalised for not being super-active. I still play http://urbandead.com/ because I can drop in every now and then casually.
The guy is making a simulation based game, and is free to make it however he wants.

#27This is so similar to Football Manager simulation series. God knows how many years I wasted on it. No, I can't do that anymore...shouldn't do that...let me just try once....I'll eat dinner later....Washing your underwear inside out saves on game time.

That's a bit of an embarrassing shortcoming for now. I'll try to get it fixed in the near future.

It's not "punishing you" it's just the mechanics of the game. If you want a more casual game, play a more casual game. The guy is making a simulation based game, and is free to make it however he wants.
