Great solo submission! I think there's legs to flesh this out into a Papers Please-like game.
minigames to decipher what's genuine or not. Could be really cool.
I don't smoke irl but being in the game made me want to take a puff out of the smoke tray after a night of haggling. Great work!
I love the visuals. Gives me very scary vibes. I think it would be cool if the costumers where a little more unsettling in there dialog. The gameplay loop is fine. I just think the music is not fitting for the mood at all. Maybe use something more slow and dark.
nice work.
Thank you for playing and for your thought on the game!
An atmosphere reeking of mold, rust, and cigarettes, and shady characters offering loot that's fallen off the back of a truck... Everything I love! Kudos for the staging, the engaging gameplay, and the enjoyment overall. GG
Thanks you for playing and for such a poetic review! Happy I liked the game!
Amazing work! Very much enoyed playing it ☆ Nice visual aesthetics too!
Thanks for playing and for the feedback!
At some point, I imagined myself as a real big shot in the jewelry and watch business. Great job! It's impressive that you did it in just a week
Thank you for playing and for kind words! Seven days plus a few nights :))
Such a cool visual! The theme is so addictive 🎶🎶 I reached the debt goal in just 3 days. I would’ve loved to see a twist, like a robbery or something similar. Having all that money without any risk felt a bit too easy. The game also gets a little repetitive after a while.
But keep up your work! :))
Thank you for playing and for the honest critique, it’s invaluable!
It so additive ))) Good game)
Thank you for playing!

Thanks a lot man!
Wow!! It's a unique experience, and the gameplay is very nice, the tension when making decisions is really rewarding. I only had one issue with the background music, but all in all, it's an excellent game :D
Thank you very much!
Hell yeah. What a game. Loved the vibes and the gameplay loop.
Thank you! Happy you hade some good time with the game!
I loved this one, the whole PSX style and late night atmosphere feels amazing and the bargaining mechanic is actually really fun, especially when you manage to get a really good deal lol. Sometimes the text was a bit hard to read and I got slightly confused about who was buying or selling, but overall I had a lot of fun with it!
Thank you for playing and for the feedback! Everything is noted, I have a job to do post jam!
Thank you!! Hope you find our game a "little" gem too xD
It was really interesting how you explored the topic; I was engrossed for quite a while. The only thing is, I’m not sure if it’s just my computer, but I found it really hard to read the text on the screen, so I couldn’t make out the numbers properly.
Thank you very much for playing and for the feedback!
Yes, a lot of people do report the issue with readability, there I definitely messed up and have to do my homework post jam:)
I’d love it if you could give our game a go it’s our first time taking part in a game jam /jam/brackeys-16/rate/4953647
Just played, it’s cool, yet as in my place it’s a deep night now I was so shocked after the first encounter so I decided not to continue for my own sanity. Monster design is top notch btw!
this game got me so stressed but I love the aesthetic
Thank you for playing!
As a relief after this one I can recommend you this cleverly designed dating sim: /jam/brackeys-16/rate/4953649
Give it a try!
I had a blast! Loved the quick time events for haggling idea and the visuals.
Thanks! Happy you had some fun with it!
I like the dark atmosphere; happy to be not the main character in real life. Very nice visual effects, it really draws you into it directly.
Thank you for playing and for the kind feedback!
With a few tweaks this could become a full release, I really enjoyed it!
Thank you for playing and for such a rate!
Good game
Thanks!
The game fits the theme perfectly! Honestly this is probably one of the best matches for the game here. It is simple to understand and it feels weirdly fun even though the game is pretty repetitive. Very well done with the game design! The artstyle is good, textlines are good. The bargain minigame is simple but it has its own vibe to it. The NPCs are well made and they do know their things. Very good job on the game!
Thanks a lot for playing and for the kind review!
Great game! I loved the PS1 aesthetic and atmosphere. I think it would be nice if there was more variety in which option to pick is best. It felt like lowballing was always the right choice. Maybe if you fail the skill check you shouldn't be allowed to pick a different price so it feels more risky.
Thank you for playing and for the suggestions! The game could for sure benefit from the proper rebalance and adding some difficulty and options for the player!
