Great job! I loved the take on the theme. The art looked amazing and the hectic gameplay was a lot of fun. Very well done!
I love the art!
Thanks 🏪!
Very creative. It felt quite polished so good job on the scope. The angry customers were super scary!
Thanks 🏪! I think we were about 20% over scoped for what we wanted. Not terrible for the first time a team's worked together!
Very creative, really liked it
Thanks 🏪!
Aha, I have to premade the item to not make them angry. Pretty enjoyable game. Love the art direction too. Good work +1
Thanks 🏪!
A neat idea and a clever take on the prompt. I loved how cute and charming the artwork is! I also really enjoyed that upsetting a customer didn't cause you to immediately lose life or fail. Instead you're able to avoid their attacks, adding an extra layer of skill and depth, but still making it more difficult to complete other customers' orders. Very nice!
Thanks 🏪! I'm glad the game jelled with you. It can get pretty chaotic in the shop
Cute game! Charming art. I came over from your comments on mine, and its interesting to see the difference between our concepts!
Thanks 🏪! :D
Lovely art style. Cozy vibes.
Nice game. ^-^
Thanks 🏪! I'm glad you could relax on the job ;)
Such a cute game! Was pretty easy for the first few and then one princess came in and demanded a sword immediately and it was all downhill from there. Could be good if you need to start fulfilling more complicated orders later on like mixing certain potions or forging certain weapons. The important thing is the gobbo must be protected at all costs, he's adorable.
Thanks 🏪! Ya we would love to have add a more complex crafting system, I think that would have paired with the agro heroes really well. But we ran out of time. Ah the Gremlin is your favorite character :D, well theres a special surprise if you can get to level 12.
Great job! First few levels I soared through so then I wanted to see what everyone did when angered and it did not disappoint. Very aesthetically pleasing, I love the little speech bubbles doubling as a timer and what item they want, very clever
Thanks fellow shop keep
Everything was going great until three old wizards came in robbed the place. :C
Great work, though! Very charming.
Thanks 🏪! Wizards are the worst.
The game was fun and the art was good
Thanks 🏪! Did you have a favorite hero? (villain?) lol
Nah I think they're equally annoying :))
The idea is fun and the art is really great, the angry customer mechanic is really funny, I tried pissing off each new customer to see what they would do x) .
The difficulty curve is a bit off though, you spend some days doing almost the exact same thing without much difficulty and then all of a sudden everyone gets angry really quickly
Thanks 🏪! We are glad you enjoyed it. The difficulty curve is definitely off, we ran out of time to balance it out better. It eventually falls back onto an algorithmic difficulty scaler and thats where it starts to get wonky. It probably would have been good to just design 10-20 levels. We had hopes for slightly more content, which would have helped the difficulty ramp out a lot.
I love graphics. The animation of angry character is very funny. Good job !
Thanks 🏪! Totally, Merlin getting mad is my favorite.
Awesome game! Love the art style
Thanks 🏪! Do you have a favorite hero?
this artwork is really phenomenal, your team has talent!
Thanks 🏪! I'm glad you enjoyed the art, IMO they really knocked it outta the park as well.
This is such a fun game! I love how the game builds up in difficulty as you play. I was too slow to get Link their book so they decided to absolutely destroy me for taking too long.
Thanks 🏪! Lol ya Link can be kinda moody.
Wow to the game art! Did you do all that in just 48 hrs along with other development stuff? Dang.
I don't get along well with that fake-Link dude, tho. He is mean to me. lol
Ahh thank you! I did the animation, Amelia did the character designs, and Lilly did the background. We were definitely pressed for time LOL. But had an awesome time doing it. Thank you so much for playing!
Oh for sure, it was awesome!
Great art style and I love the premise!
Thanks 🏪! Do you have a favorite hero?
Awesome art! I feel like the gameplay could be tweaked a bit better tough. But overall it's very well polished. I really like the voice lines of the customers, they add a lot of character.
Thanks 🏪! Totally agree, we definitely could have used a few more hours spent on the difficulty ramp. The game was about 20% over scoped I think.
