Hey! With FQ9 ending soon, I wanted to let you know that I won't be able to cover your game until after the event. If you're okay with waiting, just keep the game on the event and I'll be getting around to it over the next couple of months or so. :)

Well this is definitely not my type of game!However,the transition to fast paced 3D gameplay caught me off guard(in a very good way!),especially because i went in fully expecting a more bland 2D focused game.  

I really liked the mix between the modern web surfing experience and the gloomy atmosphere of the map!Reminds me of Pepper the Giant Purple Dog with how everything is set up.The abominations in that house really love staring at walls when I'm around(which i have no problem with!),but I hope the navigation is a little better in the future.  

I like how the browser is structured,and the dialogue you can so conveniently skip super fast.I didn't use the EBUMP at all;i don't know how you're supposed to raise enough money to pay rent otherwise,because making money is SO HARD.More on that later!  

The signs in this game are a nice addition,as well as the funny hate comments on THE GRAM ,which I thought were just the result of me selling everything and wearing the dollar store fit every day.I like how pushable the characters are after you kill them.The shooting system needs improvement but it's solid for what it is,and dragging the ammo in the gun is definitely not easy when you're chased by disabled mannequins,but it does make reloading more realistic than just pressing a key,so points for that! 

Now back to the fun adventure of getting cash to pay the rent:As i made my way to the cursed HAPPY BIRTHDAY zone,i noticed the glass panels which i thought i could shoot, but apparently they're bullet proof so i had to waste 10 minutes trying to find the 2 keys.Big mistake,as i let a whole army of 3 year olds loose in the house,and everything went downhill from there.I ran out of bullets,and just when i thought i was about to win first try,a little girl managed to chase me on all floors and i ended up in a hallway where all the doors just so conveniently  happened to be locked and "HELD BY GHOSTS",SO I STOOD WITH MY BACK AGAINST A  DOOR AS I WATCHED A ONE ARMED WOMAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF MY INCAPABILITY OF SELF DEFENSE BY ANY MEANS WITHOUT A GUN AND MAUL ME TO DEATH BY WOBBLING LEFT AND RIGHT👺👺👺👺👺👺👺👺

After trying so desperately hard to sell clothes,i was $200 away from paying my rent,and instead of getting the bad ending i got the unexpected "zombie ending".                                                                                                                                                                                             this is the first game to crash my brain like this so take that as a compliment

All that aside,I enjoyed playing your game!The art is really nice,the music is on point,and i really see potential here,so i hope you take Sick Fashion to the next level!

Wishing you the absolute best!

(When the credits rolled, for some reason I thought constantly dragging the text was the only way to make it go faster, only to find out I just had to hold it down to speed it up LOL  PLEASE ADD THIS AS A FEATURE )

Very unique game! I didn't read much about it before starting, so the transition from the chat and shopping interfaces to the abandoned house FPS was surprising but also hilarious. I LOVED all the humor in the game, especially all of the breaking of the fourth wall in parts that explained the controls and the soulless corporation speak. Mom SUCKS.

I didn't really understand the gameplay loop right away, so I was a little confused by the small inventory and wasn't sure if I should keep exploring, or if I should leave the level, but I figured it out.

I didn't have time to play much past day 2, so this might be a noob question, but I think I missed the chance to sell things in between day 1 and day 2 because I was excited to post my outfit of the day and didn't realize that was going to lock me in to starting day 2, haha. It might be nice if you could still go to other tabs after posting your outfit, and if there was a popup when you click EXPLORE THE BANDO to ask if your sure, for people like me who click without reading lol!

I'm not sure about the drag-and-drop, especially for collecting items for which I would expect the more common [e] to interact button, but it does make sense for being able to swap out items if you find something better, so I'm not sure I have a better idea. 

Fun game! Great work!

When I saw who submitted I had to try this! I hope you’re doing better, how’s the search?

The guiding signs were funny and the shooting tutorial in the book made me laugh. The sfx and atmosphere are engaging and set the mood when you start. The world is weird but cohesively dark (and pink), I had a lot of fun getting the bad ending!

The fashion-extraction-exploration loop is neat, wearing and posting outfits to sell the is an interesting use of the dressup game. Having to hold the button to bring up the gun makes it feel it feel like a more interesting mechanic than an always-present gun would be.
I like the inventory system, it’s as simple as it can be and lets you loot and run. Forgetting to reload caught me off guard a few times, though I never died!

Random notes:

• I wasn’t sure what was happening when it said someone was coming, I ran outside and eventually left when it told me to. I’m still not sure what happens when I run out of time, but the music is dramatic.
• I didn’t realize the bag item was my inventory at first, it’s a cool feature but a bag preview instead of “bag size” might be easier at a glance
• The left tabs on the chat menu were shortened with ...
• This thing maxed out my gpu, not sure what’s up with that. It ran fine but I think the fps may have been unlimited

also the gram comments made me lol

Loved the aesthetic from going from a cutesy webpage style to going right into the horror first person gameplay! The visuals and audio were great, especially in the haunted house gameplay! Loved each of the character interactions with the friend, her mom and her little sister throughout the start of each day. Really liked the feedback while using the gun as it felt shaky. It felt like I was really getting into the character who was not experienced with a firearm. I was confused on how the pills worked (wasn't sure how to use them) but everything else mechanically was pretty straight forward, from dragging and dropping items into your inventory to reloading the gun. Had a little trouble at first but got the hang of it pretty quickly. One thing I should've done on my playthrough was wearing more of the clothing to get a bonus instead of outright just selling it, All in all I had a blast! Great job!

I know you were in the stream watching live, but I just wanted to reiterate that I had an absolute ball with this game!  The concept is unique and well done; the characters are well drawn and fit their personas so well, and the humor, especially in the signs, is just on point.  I love that the gun shakes in the character's hand as she isn't used to shooting, a really nice touch!

If I had any notes at all, I would say the dragging items to inventory sometimes seems to take two clicks instead of click-and-drag, and I couldn't figure out how to heal at all.  It didn't seem automatic after leaving, and when I picked up the pills, there was nowhere to drag them to (I tried dragging to the hearts, but that didn't seem to be it).

All in all though, I look forward to seeing this on Steam one day (I hope) so I can smash wishlist so fast :D

Hey I gave the game a play.  This is really well done.  A great concept, executed well.   I like the resource management, and that some of the clothes give you buffs, but then you also can sell them for more if you wear them.   I also like that you return to the same level and slowly open it up as you go.  Here are a few notes I have:

--All of the chat text can be a bit long, so I started skipping it.  It fits with the characters and vibe, but I was more interested in getting back to the bando.

--Dragging stuff from the inventory to use it is a bit clunky.  Having it a little difficult to pick up cloths makes sense, but I had some difficulty trying to cut the lock with the lock cutters. 

--I like enemies, they really fit with the atmosphere.  

--I made it through 3 days, and I don't think I was gonna make enough to get the rent, but maybe you start getting more expensive stuff?  Or maybe bigger bags?

--I kind of understand the LEAVE NOW, like it would come when the big bad saw me, but is stealth supposed to be part of it?  I never knew whether I could sneak around or like sense them.  Also, did the athletic shoes like give a sneaking bonus?  Sometimes I don't pay attention to things, but having something like that could be cool.

--Probably could use some optimizations, as my fans seemed to be going really hard as I played it.

Anyway, nice work!  I think this is definitely worth expanding on if you want.

Honestly surprised this hasn't blown up yet, really unique concept! Love the wacky humor contrasting with the spooky house you gotta sneak into, works really well actually having that kinda whiplash between the two tones. It felt a bit clunky trying to pick up items and put bullets in the pistol (especially when things got tense), the not-Cynthias from Rugrats took bit more shots than I expected (or the aim is just a bit too wobbly). Maybe you could buy upgrades same way how you can buy items online? I also felt like I didn't know if there were any strategies to getting more cash aside from wearing a set with decent worth then selling it the next day. I did like the hint that leather items were stronger against attacks but besides that it felt a bit "okay figure it out yourself" without much in terms of clues or just being able to naturally learn. Maybe I missed some stuff. There's a timer for how long you can stay in the house which is good for getting the player to move, but I don't remember there being any kind of a readable indicator before the creepy head was comin' to get me.
Maybe there could be a quick pick up button like F or something? like if you have empty slots you could pick up items instantly? I'd also have the bullet boxes be able to combine in your bag automatically, like i had a box with 2 bullets and another with like 4, and I thought they'd combine. Maybe I needed to drag one over the other? Still had a good time with this one even if it kicked my ass lol
