Thanks for the very kind review! I’m so glad you noticed some of the more ‘invisible’ details that made the project such a hard one to finish!
I’ve been trying to figure out the cutout thing for ages, so I’m glad it looks appealing, I really like it!
I had a blast writing the dialogue and picking the music. Most of them come from music packs, but the credits are buried behind the ending, which as far as I’ve noticed, I doubt someone will manage to see them, haha. I’ll make them more accessible for next revision-
Regarding the “great deals” feature, I was afraid it could break at some point. The whole time system is a bit crude and gets desync easily as I’ve noticed. They’re supposed to be new npcs added to the market for a day that buy specific stuff at crazy prices.
Thank you again for such a detailed review! I think the ARES references are leftover code lol
