Wow, such an interesting and pretty game but I can’t help but feel the customers of this store are getting screwed.

85 cents well earned I say! you did a fantastic job making me feel like I understand the place, and at the same time not knowing where anything is located at. great game, great submission, well done!

This was a lot of fun! I think it would be cool if you could somehow go faster, since right now it seems like you can go as fast as possible but eventually lose at the same time no matter what.

Great submission! :)

Honestly I wanted to put more into the sprinting and also the map design but the extra mechanics wouldve been too much a headache so I had to settle, glad you liked it though ^^

Very cute art style and concept! The gameplay sells that repetitive minimum wage job vibe. The interactive title screen was also a phenomenal touch, especially for a 3 day jam like this. But most of all I really like the main character's design!

Overall it's a solid game. The arrows are useful for finding where parts are but it can be a little difficult to tell parts apart. due to the wireframe over top of most of them.

Great work all around!

It looks good, unfortunately I have restrictions downloading .exe on this PC, would you be able to upload a web version? You might even reach a wider audience.

Here's how to do it in Godot, thanks!

If only real retail customers exploded like that...

Really cool game! The mechanics feel spot-on and it’s fun how many things in the environment you can interact with.

  • It might just be me, but I wasn’t sure what the main character is supposed to be (human, duck, something else?) – the art style felt a bit too abstract for me.

  • Audio is decent and fits the game.

  • The level is well designed and enjoyable to explore.
