Sugar rated NIGHT OF THE CONSUMERS

Sugar rated a game 4 years ago
A downloadable game for Windows.

Absolutely adore this game, as crushingly difficult as it can be lol 

It really does capture the agony of trying to do everything in your power just to do your fucking job while ppl endlessly pester you. Definitely stressed me out and I lost a LOT but I feel that's the intended experience.

I love the visuals, the scary fail screen of the manager just full sprinting at you, the wail of "purrrchaaaase" from the customers that I'm confident is referencing System Shock 2 (i could never get too mad b/c of that lol) and the music shifts between wrapping up tasks. Very frantic and fast paced, the feeling of sprinting full tilt to a staff room to avoid a chasing customer is amazing. 

I will say that the difficulty is a bit much. Its not too bad at first but if you're caught by a customer when ur almost done ur tasks its practically a game over. I think if the timer stayed consistent and the threat was more than your shift time passed quicker so that you didnt have enough time to stock the shelves, that would be a bit more forgiving? Customers can just nab you out of the blue sometimes and the mouse controls are a bit finicky, especially on the left/right most sides but despite that it's still its very fun! I'm very relieved this is a short experience but I honestly would love to see more of this, highly recommend!
