Hi,
I hope you and your families had a Merry Christmas.
I'm publishing this post before the end of this year (2023) to announce a new game in development for the ZX Spectrum Computers (ZX Spectrum 128 and ZX Spectrum Next).
BOVESPA (B3) is the Brazilian Stock Exchange. It was formerly called "Bolsa de Valores de São Paulo" before changing its name to B3 (Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão), founded on August 23, 1890.
If you want to know more about B3, follow this link.
MIMEX is a game inspired by the Magnavox Odyssey 2 game "The Great Wall Street Treasure Hunt" from the Strategy Series.
Odyssey 2 was marketed here in Brazil by Philips and this was my first videogame. I received it from my parents as a Christmas Gift, in 1983, with the large Wall Street box, that was the first game I played on this system. It was a deception because I was only 8 years old and could barely pass the Level 1 game (buy and sell stocks). But 40 years passed since then and now I'm older, stronger, smarter and faster , and I'm finishing my MBA in Capital Markets and Investments, so I just wanted to recreate a much improved version of the childwood game with the following features:
- Buy and Sell Stocks (Level 1);
- Buy and Sell Treasure Bills (Improved Level2);
- Buying on Margin (Improved Level 3);
- Buy and Sell PUT or CALL Options (Improved Level 4);
- IR (Investor Relations Events) - 1:2 splits, 2:1 grouping, dividend payments, judicial recoveries and bankruptcies;
- Much Improved Market Engine, written from scratch;
- Updated tickers (Brazilian B3);
- Updated news headlines;
Other improvements in consideration:
- 4 Players (instead of the original 2 players);
- Game length selection (1 - 5 years) ;
- Other secret improvements to be disclosed in the future;
Best regards and a happy new year to all!
