I couldn't figure out exactly how to play I guess? No matter what i set prices to for the items they'd just leave and i'd lose 5 dollars? Though it's not clear how much money I even have to begin with.
It'd be nice if there was some sort've indication maybe what they wanted to buy I think that might've been my problem as I did sell One thing? but it definitely wasn't a rip off. I think it would fit the theme if I could understand how to actually sell items to people
I'm sorry to hear that you couldn't tell what they were ordering. The customers have voice lines on them, and they tell you what they want, so that could have been the issue. The game has a tutorial on the screen of the register, and there's an indication of your balance after you complete the tutorial. As for the theme, you are ripping people off by raising their prices.
I didn't see a tutorial.. (maybe I missed it?) but I definitely didn't hear any voicelines so that was likely my problem
Yeah in retrospect, I probably should have made the tutorial more obvious.
I didn’t understand the concept at first, then I got it changing the pricing haha. Nevertheless, my issue was that I couldn’t rotate with the stick (needed to reset headset view), and I fall below the map if I move too much. I think fixing the technical problem would make a funnier experience :) (And I also want to throw objects to people if they don’t buy muhahaha 😈)
