👾 A Note from the Creator
Hi! I'm an avid video game lover and have been playing games since I was 5 years old. Growing up, I spent countless hours glued to classic NES games, dreaming of one day creating a game of my own. Speed Spender is my very first game release, and I truly hope you enjoy it!
Rather than mindless clicking, this game is built around fast hand-eye coordination and quick mental math. The winning secret? Focus on the high-ticket bulk items first, calculate your remaining change on the fly, and beat the buzzer before zero hour strikes.
🚀 The Speed Spender Story
For years, the internet has loved casual "Spend Bill Gates' Money" websites. They were relaxing, whimsical, and fun—but they were essentially endless, passive shopping checklists with unlimited time.
That spark became Speed Spender: a high-intensity, mathematical reflex arcade game designed in a bold Neo-Brutalist aesthetic. It challenges players to overcome dynamic over-budget minefields, runaway luxury items requiring double-taps, panic heartbeat countdowns, and precision endgame change crunching.
