Goods wear out, birthdays, and long runs stop laggingBuild 0.5.0109. The biggest demo update so far, and most of it comes from watching people play the last one. One thing first. Someone reported that the game got slower and slower over a long run while memory stayed flat. That was real. Every store window you had ever opened was being rebuilt behind the scenes on every money change of the month tick, the journal re-sorted its whole list for each…Burnout you can actually catch, and the whole game on a keyboardBuild 0.5.2708. A smaller one than last time, but two of the items are things people asked for by name. Burnout has been in the game since the first build. Nobody ever saw it. The trigger counted hours you cannot actually schedule, so the heaviest debuff in the game was sitting there unreachable, and if it had fired, it would have landed with no explanation. It has a proper entrance now. · Runn…Your job now has events of its ownBuild 0.5.1708. Most of this one is your job. Events used to happen to you regardless of what you did for a living. A barista and a CTO got the same month. Three of the jobs you can hold in the demo now have events written only for them, forty four in total, with their own art, and they only draw while you actually work there. · The coffee counter, the rideshare wheel, the IT help desk.

The question we get most often is when the full version arrives. Today we can answer it: November 16. To mark that, the game gets ano… | — | |
| Game update | The demo gets a new look Build 0.5.0508. Most of this one is the interface. · A new type voice. Window titles, buttons, the month banner and every figure now use a condensed all-caps face instead of the old mix of body text and monospace labels. · A new accent color. The indigo is gone. The UI runs on a warm terracotta sampled from the Student's hoodie, and the logo dropped the indigo too. It crashes downhill in red no… | — | |
| Game update | First demo patch is out The demo has its first patch, build 0.5.0108. Almost everything in it comes from the first days after release: watching your playthroughs and reading the reports. · The "new listings" dot tells the truth now. The Jobs and Rentals tabs kept lighting their attention dot every month even when nothing new appeared, because the monthly approval-odds update counted as news. Now the dot only lights fo… | — | |
| News | The free demo is out The free demo of Net Worthless is out. You can play it right now on this page. The demo is limited to one character: the Student. There's no time limit, but his dream is one of the easier ones, so a full run as him is much shorter than runs as the other characters will be at release. If you've already seen the demo in someone's video, that was an early build. Here's what changed since then: · S… |
