We are pleased to announce the availability of the Advanced Bitcoin Simulator.  Using the most sophisticated statistical modelling techniques and the latest in modern virtual reality technologies, it represents the cutting edge of bitcoin-related internet-facing analytical technologies.  It is available absolutely for free in the interest of promoting the study and understanding of the bitcoin cryptoecosystem.

You can experience the Advanced Bitcoin Simulator at http://www.beepboopbitcoin.com (http://www.beepboopbitcoin.com).  Comments and analysis are welcome.

can you post any screenshoots from you web page? :) your thread would be much better with some more provable information!:)
thanks!

From game:

LOL, I see you are kind of cynical of Bitcoin & the Mt. Gox shutdown.
Personally, I think there were very strong indicators that something was very wrong there for a long time.


Regardless, thanx for the entertainment. I got a few laughs.

interesting, smth new but will not use it

Funny

My house burnt down and I ended up living in a campground just outside of town...  :-\ :'(

Whatever you do, don't buy the Flutterby Labs miner!

Cynical joke eh? Ive tried to win its not possible lol

We want to thank the bitcoin community for the overwhelming response.  Our developers have just implemented the following changes based on your feedback:

• Adjusted the investment AI to be more responsive to player actions
• Added warnings before displaying any potentially not work safe images
• Tweaked the initial co-efficients used in the simulated quantum annealing routines.  This should fix the problems with market convergence some people have been experiencing
• Minor UI changes the improve readability in some browsers

We have not yet implemented any logic to model the effects of the recent IRS decisions involving bitcoin.  This is our most-requested feature so we're hoping to add it in a future release.

allow the antminer s1 xD

If you WAIT IN LINE, it gets worse.
Whatever you do, never EAT PORK.

lol

There goes all my simulated bitcoins.. ):

Yup theres just no winning. I thought flutterfly labs was a nice touch, arriving 22 weeks after order. Made me chuckle :)

Hysterical!
Love this

Ahah! Jokes on you, I'm winning. I've used past events to figure out to invest early, and get out before things collapse. I'm currently out $3147 Fiat, and up 115.54 BTC.

*edit* Nope I lost. Guess its easy to invest everything into a scam when its not real money *thinks back to me saying this 4 years ago with real Bitcoins*

>.< Is there any way to "win"

Once your homeless that's pretty much it...

actually that's when it really begins

>fuck 
Real adventurers do not use such language. 
>i'm not a real adventurer 
That's not a verb I recognise. 
>why did i even visit this website 
That's not a verb I recognise.

Our developers continue to work to improve the Advanced Bitcoin Simulator and so we're pleased to announce the following changes:

• Adjusted market AI to improve k-nearest neighbor and Bayesian classifier performance
• Added the ability to save the simulation state if you have nonzero bitcoins
• Fixed typo in a Milton Friedman quote
• Fixed compatibility issues with the PlanetWeb browser

oh god this is brilliant  ;D

So realistic.

April Fools joke ?

Ahahahaha i laughed so hard  ;D

Good game, thank you!

I beat it!.... or finished it. I guess.

It said "you've won" over and over so I guess I did!

So... where is my bitcoin prize?

how'd you win?!

Haha yeah for real, everytime I reset the ASIC miner, everything catches on fire. Are you not supposed to restart it? Everything from the Bitcoin forum is being said over and over again, nothing new.

And what exactly made you think fire == losing?

After the fire the adventure continues... and of course things get much, much worse ;D

BEcayse after the fire nothing is responsive and I can't click anything.

Can't figure out the command to use when you get to the tax collector...

Edit: Figured it out, was so obvious. Now it really gets weird...

Read the description very carefully and you'll figure out what you are supposed to do :)

Yea just finished it, pretty funny overall.

YOU ARE IN AN OPEN FIELD WEST OF A BIG WHITE HOUSE WITH A BOARDED FRONT DOOR.

THERE IS A SMALL MAILBOX HERE.

Just wait a little.

I loved it!

Best game since Goat Simulator!!

What happens? Does fire fix or what? Just wait for how long?

You'll see some text.

Alrighty will try again!

hahahahaahha this shit got REAL WEIRD....

"After a time you realise you're alone.  You feel as though the world has telescoped down to a warm, soft circle around you.  In time you come to realise that this means you've liberated the whole world.  Everyone must now be part of the bitcoin network.  Everyone is connected.  Fiat is dead.  Digital cryptocurrencies, whatever they are, have triumphed.  As you come to this realisation you lean your forehead against one warm soft wall and laugh until tears flow down your face.  You've won.  You've won.  You've won."

^ that's awesome lol congrats and thank you  :D

Update 15 April 2014:

• Fixed bug with DLC on non-GOTY versions of the simulator
• Fixed bug affecting gameplay when accessing some pages via external link
• Hotfix to improve compatibility with some gopher clients
• Added romance options (Leonard Peikoff, von Mises)

Hahaha so funny!

Class the most fun I had in a while  ;D
