i played about 4or 5 times til i finally beat it.
its a nice concept and well executed, sometimes ;near the end; the hitchiking got really frustrating .

thank you.
I'm not very proud of the hitchhiking minigame, you know?
That will be completely revised *if* the sponsor says go.
Good
Very good game indeed.
First time I died but the second time I lost the million dollars :(
So it's a 9 ;)
Sweet!
It was one of the most entertaining games I have ever played on NG! The graphics were eh. But the gameplay was fun. It kept me entertained. Hell I even got #17 on the global scoreboard.

Lovely game
I love the way that this game has been set out - the way that you've got to get yourself all the way across the country in order to win big. It sounds kind of like the 1980s film "Brewster's Millions" the idea was to get the main character to appreciate the value of money, much like the hobo has to do, but in the complete polar opposite fashion. The message is the same - learn to appreciate the privileged life that we lead.
The graphics are great and so are the mini games that you've given. With the hitch hiking, I'm sure that you'd have been better off if you'd have given us some variation, like the addition of something like an occasional conversation window for hitch hiking, as it can get quite boring as you head from city to city hitch-hiking constantly.
A well worked plot, nice sounds and a good addictive quality to the game. The only other way that I could really think to improve it would be the addition of the Newgrounds Medals protocol to it, possibly ones for reaching each city, plus something for achievements in the mini games. Simple and effective.

I hope there will be an update/sequel soon!
