I like the writing sounds. This concept of buying and selling time reminds me of the movie Time Out. This is a great implementation of the theme. GG

As someone who disliked typing text effect and typewriter sounds, I consider this a psychological horror. Regardless, I think this is a pretty neat game and I like your implementation of the theme. The UI is simple and clean, played on mobile with no issue. Congrats!

Playing this game I noticed good and bad things.

The good parts:

1. The game looks good and runs nicely in the browser.

2. The UI is extraordinarily well done.

3. The concept is very interesting (even if it is a game based more on text/narrative description).


The bad parts:

1. Absence of audio feedback (no existing background music).

2. The way the game play is quite slow and that consumes a lot of your time (until a customer comes with another offer, you can lose up to 20 seconds, which is quite significant in this game, especially when you are within the time limit).

3. The UI is nice, but somehow the elements you win or lose during an offer should be highlighted better.

Edit  :  I cut the problems that I found in the previous version. I have no complaints to say. :)

Thank you for your feedback, We just open up the game early for people to tryout while it is in development. This to help up in getting early feedback in the current build. As of now were just adding additional details to the game.
