I was laughing so much. Those misspelled names. Fantastic. I'm not sure I felt it went with the theme entirely, though. Only one try to spell it correctly. But I did spell it incorrectly, and while I couldn't use backspace, I could still type it again. There seemed also to be no penalty for letting them reach the till. Awesome game, anyhow!

I don't understand why I can't backspace. Since most of the words I'm supposed to type are made-up nonsense words, I constantly made typos. The word I'm typing is useless after I've made the typo, so I have to press enter to erase the word and try typing it again. This became incredibly annoying after the first few typing errors. It was also annoying to make a typo because the nonsense word would ofter disappear after making the error. I'm also not quite sure why there are four separate numbers for the gifts since the game ends when all of the numbers decrease to zero. Why not combine them into one number so that it's easier to see my progress? Finally, the shoppers come at you very slowly. It was easy to beat even with the problems I've described."}],"images":["ld28\/10976-1d5a2568661f47be52703c618f8e137a.jpg","ld28\/10976-c73630bb86abcd63ac12337bb7088a03.jpg","ld28\/10976-3fe42855d0874962bf89e71d0ddc3379.jpg","ld28\/10976-f201aaa6f194fdd1477da4c776d7120b.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/microcake.org\/darkestfriday\/","text":"Web"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"21203","g_author":"10976","g_event":"LD28","g_eventkey":"20","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"21232","g_title":"Darkest Friday","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"145","g_commentcount":"40","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/308734\/10976-shot0.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/308734\/10976-shot1.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/308734\/10976-shot2.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/308734\/10976-shot3.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"You're a retail worker at a toy store working on one of the darkest \r\nand bleakest days of the year: Black Friday. \r\n\r\nAll customers are allowed one toy, which they will be screaming for.\r\nYour goal is to survive and pass out toys one by one by typing out their requests. \r\nFail, and you'll be mobbed by some very angry customers. \r\n\r\nCoding: Zeik \r\nArt and Design: Cake \r\n","title":"Darkest Friday"}
