When I was a kid, I wanted to work as a cashier because I thought cashiers could take anything they wanted from the store for free, haha. Really cool game. I didn’t realize I had become so bad at math. I think some music, more effects, and stronger feedback for the player’s actions would make it even better. Using the mouse wheel is such a cool idea too

Really cool game, I love the artstyle ! I laughed when I saw the old woman coming with expired coupons and small coins T_T. While playing, I really felt like I was working under the desk, pressured by the clients and the manager :'D I'm not sure it is a good thing but some people play CashDesk simulators so I guess why not ? BUT I AM NOT A PRODUCT OF CONSUMERISM YOU HEAR ME ??!! x) Well done with the game !

Wasted Dart LegendI like the art and beeps. Wish that it would get a bit bigger when full screen. It was a little hard to use the mouse cursor.

My Perfect Daygameplay worked very well overall! very realistically frustrating when a customer dumps a bunch of tiny coins and coupons for you to sort through. if you wanted it to feel more tense, both music and customer reactions could do the trick- if you're taking a while their sprites could change, they could say little comments, etc, would make them feel more alive. had a fun time!

Picture DayCute little game! I think some background music would have added a lot, but still really fun regardless!

Seven Seconds to Save Your SoulI said "Holy sh-t!" when grandma paid with coins!! Would you consider to make full game?

Hit On TimeCute, I think the artwork is a real standout here. I love the gamifying work like papers please and I think the rotating with the mouse wheel is a nice fluid touch.

T Minus RatThe game looks pretty cool and simple mechanic as well, should have anticipated the retail experience lol. Managed to get fired after 7 customers XD.
Great art and cool sound effects. Great work. Though it is a bit hard to grab the correct money sometimes (Especially the old lady with her coins, I think I miss grab her one instead of her 2 so a lot of miscalculation there)
