A nice take on the theme. Great ascetic! Deciphering the languages was fun, but it could have used some sounds like when the aliens talk there's a little grunt and other things to make the atmosphere better and more creepy.
A very unique idea! I liked the characters design.
Awee that was a fun little romp of brain teasers thank you :) I loved the 90s era cg too!
Clever concept for a game. Deciphering all the different languages was quite fun.
It would be nice if there were some way to stave off the bad ending. Perhaps by making money through a lot of sales, then bribing... well, you get the idea.
It may have just been my computer, but the game didn't seem to have any sound. A bit of music and maybe a couple of sound effects can really help the immersion.
Thank you.
Yeah, I've been trying to think of ways to expand it. You're right, there should be a way to avoid the bad ending. Allowing the player to accumulate money is something I may do. I could add more jobs or allow the player to form a space empire, and have to keep up with payments/
I'm sorry, there was no sound for this version. I was going to add alien growls for when the player got the item wrong, but wasn't sure if that was too cheesy. I should add a positive sale sound and like a hatch sound opening/closing at least.
It wouldn't be too cheesy. :) It would be cool.
I like the idea of working at an alien store and having to decipher what the aliens want !
Thank you!
