I got a lot of enjoyment out of its interesting, unique presentation and simple core loop.

Developer

Very unique! I enjoyed it a lot.

Thanks! You enjoy my game - you make my day!

This was so unique!! Hustle simulators are always a blast to play, although I DID feel the characters themselves could've been a bit more distinct for each other. Other than that, good job w this one

Developer

Thank you for playing and for the feedback! Critique is on point! Yep, characters may be more developed indeed, but it took me so much time to balance the game so I had nothing left for the less generic dialogs.

Had a blast playing Late Night Pawn Shop. I loved being able to low ball customers and upsell customers (I beat the game by night 5). I vibed hard to the music and loved how the atmosphere was conveyed through the lighting and art style.

Developer

Thank you for playing and for the feedback! Happy you enjoyed it!

I strangely got addicted to the gameplay loop. Managed to pay off my debt on the 2nd run by night 4. Solid game overall.

Developer

Thanks for playing! Love you had some quality time with the game besides it’s simplicity!

They can trust me as much as I can trust them! I'm getting scammed and they're getting scammed. I love the style and vibe. I enjoyed every bit.

Developer

Thank you! Happy to hear you liked it!

Game is slicker than alley mud

Developer

Thank you for playing and for the feedback! You definitely have a way with words, can easily be a prototype for the one of the NPCs in the game :)

Good game. Liked the visuals and the skill checks

Developer

Thanks for playing, glad you liked it!

I recently discovered my love for pawn shop games, so this was right up my alley! ;-)

Your game didn't just nail the theme and the bargaining mechanic, the atmosphere is on another level! The soundtrack, the lighting, the tiny window, the whole run-down vibe, and that passing train create an immersion I haven't seen anywhere else in this jam yet. Things like the upgrade mechanics are just the cherry on top!

Truly outstanding work!

Developer

Thank you so much for playing and for such kind feedback! You made me smile! I will check your game later, I believe I have something to learn from fellow pawn shops appriciators!

Got an index out of bounds message and was not able to being playing. 

Developer

Sorry to hear that. If you are on macOS there maybe some issue due to the sharedArrayBuffer is turned on on the page for the threads support and thus performance. Try using Google Chrome web browser or downloading the desktop build if you still want to try the game out.

If you are not on macOS - please let me know what is your OS and what web browser do you use.

Thanks in advance!

Fun game! Graphics were really cool but sometimes hard to see what it was saying. Great job!

Developer

Thank you! Have to work on the UI!

Submitted(+1)

I now feel like I want to own a pawn shop. I love the bargain mechanic, simple yet super fun. Really liked this one!

Developer

Thank you! Glad you liked the experience!

Submitted(+1)

The visuals and audio are incredible, the gameplay is really fun, and the theme is well implemented. The only issue I see is that the text is sometimes hard to read, but other than that, it's great!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing and for the critique! I clearly did not work on the text readability enough.

Submitted(+1)

Really liked the game! was a little hard to see the text in Fullscreen but good job!

Developer

Thanks! Yep, lot of people reported the issue with readability, need to work on that.

i was really curious about this game cause it seemed to me like we had the same idea but took it in completely different directions. the atmosphere of your game is superb though, hats off. really a great game loop too. this level of polish is simply mind-boggling. keep it up!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for playing the game and for such a generous review! Need to try yours later, it is always interesting how different people interpret same ideas!
