I love beating children.
I love beating adults.
I love beating the elderly.

And in this game I finally get to do all of the above!

On a more serious note, I really liked the clear sense of progression that Stock 'em Boppers gives you with the level-up happening after every fight. HP increases, you unlock new abilities and now can fight against stronger enemies.

It's also great that the game doesn't have an inventory and allows you to heal without collecting items. It doesn't take away from the challenge since enemies can deal more damage than you heal per turn, yet you still have an opportunity to recover full HP. Pretty well thought-out! The thumbs-up kid really adds to the experience too.

Also, how many unlockable attacks are there? I've played several times and noticed that new attacks vary from playthrough to playthrough (like tickle and crossover)

Thank you for submitting your game to the 'Out of Stock' jam!

most immersive school sim ever 10/10

for real, the battle system is quite fleshed out, i would genuinely play it again!

the kid with the thumbs up is the cherry on top chef's kiss

Ms Finster punched me so hard I regressed back to being 13 year old, guaranteeing another wave of school flashback nightmares for years to come 

Thumbs Up kid is my favorite. I feel like if every RPG had a kid giving you his approval whenever you got a critical hit, I'd play a lot more RPGs.

I kept getting thrown off a cliff by Principal Pete but overall fun game XD

Unironically better than Pokemon for me because it's less confusing lmao

Let's go! BATTLES!!! it is remenecent of pokemon! good jobbers

I love the images used and the battle system seems very well thought out.
