BARRELS OF WHISKEY!!!! ^^

Submitted(+1)

Everything that involves whiskey is by default very good :) made me want to drink some whiskey but im all out of whiskey ;p It was a little hard to give the guy in the left some whiskey, but eventually i gave him some aswell ;) Also like the pixel art characters. Maybe an indication of how full your bottle is would have been nice :)

Nice little game, I like you the costumers just slides down the bar. But the whiskey and the glasses are inconvenient far apart. Also there is a lack of playerfeed, I never knew if I do a great job or not, an extra animation would be nice when the customer is pleased or not.

Okay, you added the function to turn off the best part of your game: MUSIC. I LOVED IT! the music was so good and that idea to serve whiskey and see what amount of whiskey is best to serve is really good. Overall I enjoyed it a lot but the best part for me was music.

Please Play and Rate my game too. Thanks!

Very fun game! I really like the art and music, your take on the theme is very interesting. Choosing what to spend money on is a very nice touch. Overall this is a solid game. Well done!

Cool concept, the game seems a bit simple, i like the music and the part where you decide if expend the money in dog's food or in son's food, it reminds me a lot to Papers Please, but i think there's a bug cause i always got the money spent back.

Developer(+1)

I just noticed that bug :(

Thanks tho

This was interesting. I streamed it here:  The art was nice. It would have been nice to have something pop up above the people you served so you could tell if you poured enough or not. Nice work overall!

I like the direction you took the theme and I enjoyed your pixel art. The gameplay got boring pretty quickly though. I think this concept might work better as a management sim where you are a penny pinching manager setting standards for your employees rather than pouring the drinks yourself.

Nice mood. Gameplay is perhaps too simple. I like the music.

Fun and simple. Nice pixel artwork with the shading and everything. Seems inspired by "Papers Please". My money never went down after spending it for the day so became pretty easy. Also, I never got any angry customers for serving them empty glasses lol.

Developer(+1)

Yeah I just noticed the money bug, sorry.

And for customers it's not a bug, they never get angry, they just don't pay you lol.

Anyway, thank you for the feedback :D

nice game but not very challlenging. nonetheless, great visuals and with a little more challenge could be a very good game!

Submitted(+1)

I liked the game, but it got very repetitive really fast. Just 3 clicks and a drag in repetition is not very engaging, but I still did it anyway for a few days. The game looks great, good job on the visuals.

Developer(+1)

Thank you :D

I'll do my best to make it more engaging.

What kind of bar opens at 12 and closes at 24 :)

I only fed my dog and kept playing. It wasn't that challenging to be honest. But it was nice.

I don't like anonymous votes, so here is my rating.

Keep up the good work lad!


Developer

Yeah I know the time is a bit strange but I had to make it like that to avoid days being too long and boring.

I'm planning to add more feature after the jam to make it more challenging. Thank you for the amazing votes and the feedback, happy end of the jam :D

Submitted(+1)

The game looks very nice, however I didn't find it challenging, I served whisky for minutes and nothing special happened, not enough action for me to engaged with it. I would make it a lot more fast and with make the players choices more impactful.

Developer(+1)

My original idea wat to implement multiple drinks, so the player had to pour the one the customer asked, the customization of the pub and responsive customers reaction (for example drunk people) and the added "challenge" to clean glasses before being able to use them again. However I've been very busy this week and I had to renounce to those feature.

Anyway, thanks for the feedback, I'll do my best to improve it after the jam :D

This game has an interesting Irish them on it!!! I like it!!

Submitted(+1)

I liked the music, and it reminded me a lot of Papers Please. But I think it would've been more engaging if we had to manually pour the whiskey instead of just clicking on the bottle.

I loved the music! Very cool concept

I really liked the pixel art of your game, but i would have liked more content, i also liked that you had to buy food, and such at the end of the day, it reminded me of papers please.

Developer

I originally planned to add more kind of drinks, but this week I've been really busy so I had to give up that idea. The food part is actually inspired by Papers, Please.

Thank you :)

Yea I could tell that you wanted to add more drinks because of how much space was on the table. But I can tell that the game has a lot of potential, it could be cool if you could buy bartenders that helped pour drinks or if you could upgrade your pouring speed.
