Theme interpretation
In Startender, you take the role of a bartender on the moon. You work at the shady Moonshot bar, where aliens of one shape and size come to get drinks after long days at work. It is your job to serve them what they want, but be careful—your boss hasn't been paying his protection fees lately, and the Moon Mafia is coming to collect.
Can you balance preparing drinks and fighting off the mob, while saving up enough money to visit your lonely grandma?

Funny and pretty smoothly playable from start to end!
The only downsides are that the alternation between the take and use command was a bit tricky, plus I often felt too much caged in my moving and looking boundaries.
Aside from that, it was challenging enough without being tedious. Nice!
Good fun and I love the blobfish faces :D
Super fun gameplay loop, love the idea of combining combat w/ the time-management bartending, really fun models. The only thing is there's a bit of gameplay lag when it comes to shooting, and I wish there was a little bit mobility when it came to swiveling the camera- sometimes I couldn't grab a glass or drink even if I was right there because of how far I could move my camera. The combination of 'E' and left click was also confusing at times- would've been cool to see it all combined. Overall, super great game- although anyone who orders a whole mug of vodka is a member of the mafia in my book. ;)
