Cool game. I really dug the art and vibe of this one. Good job

Really cool game, I love the pixel art style, and I also liked the monster racism (lol). Also I think what you called "Red" showed as magenta. I assumed it was to make them more visible.

Art is super strong, especially the attention to detail with the furniture in the hotel, and the little bats that follow the vampires. SFX were also great, my favorite being the little 'ugh' noise that the vampires make lol. It all feels very polished. My main crit would be that I think the rooms changed so much that I never got much sense of where anything was. I think part of the point was meant to be that we remember where different rooms are, but I don't think I ever got to that point. It was mainly just running around looking for the right room lol. I also didn't ever notice the customer's patience bars go down so I don't know if there's a possible bug there. Really strong entry overall tho, thanks for sharing!

Strong entry! I loved the jingle at the start and I had a lot fun escorting guests around the hotel. Y'all did a nice job introducing new concepts along the way to evolve the game loop and keep things interesting, but by the time I got to the fourth day it felt like I was getting asked for room combinations that weren't possible? It sounds like I might have missed a mechanic here (based on some of the other feedback) that allowed for re-rolling the guest's room choice? If so, that could have been hinted at or made clearer I think. The art and animations are really beautiful here!

Super polished right from the intro! The custom music and singing were awesome, and even the little bell ding to start the game. The pixel art is amazing too, loved all the little monster designs and how they show on the doors once they're in their rooms. The gameplay was really fun, though my memory is downright awful lol. I could never remember where any of the doors were, so I spent half the time pacing around the hotel with guests following me. They must've thought it was my first day on the job; my coworkers should have never left me alone XD

I liked how the difficulty picked up as the days went on too, with the doors changing around and the guests getting pickier about their rooms. The sound design was great all around, hats off to Happy :> and everyone who worked on the audio! And of course, I made sure to pet the cat haha. Really impressive work from the whole team!
