I really liked this, but I feel like I was getting robbed like every other time :confused: still fun though.

I really like the look of the game. The bandit comes around so much, I was really expecting throwing the spider at him might scare him off. I actually don't think these are incompatible genres.

I love the characters! Could be quite good with more time to work on it!

I loved the art style that you chose for this game, it fitted really well. The sounds and songs are great. You could have used more of the theme, even tho, one of the best games a have played today. Great job!

This game just feels right. I like the graphics style and how it fits with the genre. The sounds are also very well done. At times I did feel I wasn't making any progress, but that's a balancing issue I suppose. Overall, a good jam game.

It's great! Too bad it's that short because I could play that for days!
I actually had all the four achievements!
Just, I don't know about the theme... Rpg and gestion aren't really incompatible...

really liked it! I was kinda slow to warm up to it but the writing, voice acting, and unique character design were definitely strengths! I streamed it here https://www.twitch.tv/videos/253589659

Probably one of the best game I've reviewed !
Everything fits so well together, and I just LOVE the voice acting.

Great concept! Got all achievements. It seems that the bandit doesn't appear while u help the pidgeon guard? If that's so, thats a nice idea. Love to see this in a full game :)

@ccglp Yeah, that was the Bandit Lord, and pigeon defeated it. The sword that he gives is actually the same that the cat was holding! Thanks for playing and glad you liked it! :slight_smile:

I really liked this! Got all the achievements and bought every damn thing that little sad duck dude brought me. Thanks for the game! ![RPGShopss2.png](///raw/bf8/1/z/1255a.png)

@Angelbait Dude, you made me smile and laugh :laughing:

Oh, and sorry for not making it obvious, but you can give the crown to that sad dude, he puts it on and becomes happy!

Thank you so much for playing!

I like the concept, reminds of Recettear, except you can only get new items through customers. I say keep working on it, it's pretty cute and well fleshed out

This game has very interesting turns. The fantasy theme and the mix between RPG and tabern thing is great. The graphics are cool. The dialogs are very funny, I laugh a lot playing it. Good job!

This was a cute game with moments of laughs and hilarious characters.
"Reptile guy comes wanting more Mana portions but youre ouf of mana and gives him a vase with flowers instead and he is like "are you sure this is ok" but pays up and trust it will be as good. :D
Very simple and chill background music with humoristic voice acting. Nicely done.

I love the art! Playing this game was fun, and a lot easier once I realized you could move things around, not just push them. I'm going to try to get all the achievements. I loved seeing it in the discord!

Love this game. :D Good job. A better progression would be better. The RNG is key here. :D

I also meant to say: it reminds me of Reigns, and I really like that!

Tip: don't store your weapons on the ground because sometimes it's hard to get them back.

Also, I think I'm opening a portal to another world over here...:

@pparadigm That would be a good easter egg: too many items in one spot tear space-time continuum and create a portal. Love the idea :smile:

It would really add to the "adventure" side of things! If you add more to this game, I'd love to keep playing. Did you have any inspirations (including ones that I can go play)?

Really neat I got almost every achivement just not the neptun thingy because I had a dragon head on my table but I really liked and played it for half an hour. Just a small thing that lies probably in the jam but I always knew I could sell of this purple thing and get +600 gold just for it sitting on the counter for a small time. To the rest I can say well done :love_letter:

@WERT Thank you and I'm glad you had fun playing it! About the lizard and dragon's head, yeah, later I figured it was a bad decision to create a scenario where it's impossible to get an achievement. At least in jam's context I shouldn't have limited player from experiencing the whole game. Thanks again! :slight_smile:

Very cool idea! I enjoyed this one a lot, and really tried to get all the achievements :) The only criticisms I have are that it was a bit slow to get started (you have to interact with 4 or 5 customers before things start happening) and if you drop an item in front of the counter, you can't seem to get it back, which sucked. Overall though, well done!
