Very interesting mechanics, but I couldn't always figure out why the shopping bag turned red. Nonetheless loved the art and theme!

Submitted(+4)

I loved the entire aesthetic of the game from art to music to mechanics. I'm not good at math so I needed a calculator to play, but other than that it's real fun !

Wow! Great idea, and this is a very nice result! The music, the visuals, the janky physics... So fun! I must say I was sometimes a bit frustrated seeing my cabbage starting to spin like crazy because I knew it wasn't going to behave and stay on the scale 😭 But in a way, it added to the game's charm.

Congratulations! It's an amazing entry to the jam

Art style is awesome! I really liked the concept and the music. I couldn't quite figure out how to math out all the items.

Overall, nice game!

Love the art style !!

It looks like a nice simple puzzle at first, and the music+art really makes it come together.

I am too bad at math to really play this game tho xD 
And it would be very nice to ave a way to rotate the objects inside of the customer's bag

Alchemist simulator vibes

Really well made and beautiful game! The style is obviously superb. After I reread the description and understood that the customers always want all the products everything went pretty smooth and I was able to finish the day. I think gameplay wise there is a bit left on the table. Maybe make your scale be able to weigh multiple products simultaneously? It could be an intentional decision the way it is, but I found that hindering. And maybe customers could have specific requests? I don't know :) I feel this could be a great little gem with a bit of tweaking, but it's already really good considering it's a game jam and the timescale. You did a great job! Congrats!
