Episode description
It's probably slightly old fashioned by today's standards, but this show has kept me going for 20 years, since my school days they started showing it in Estonia.

Very nice visuals!
Thank you for playing! Don't think art is my strongest skill, so much appreciated :)
Great pixel graphics! I presume the color of the shoes were quite close on purpose (as it was pretty confusing at first). Gets a little tedious after a while, which I guess is the life of a shoe salesperson.
Yeah, I kinda was in between of "it clashes" and "he is suppose to get annoyed with his job". My original "grand vision" 14 years ago was more open ended, like Donald Duck Playground type game, I agree that in this single day/level form it doesn't work as well as it could. Thanks for playing :)
Awesome pixel reinterpretation & fun gameplay, nicely done :)
Than you. I find art and design much harder than coding, so I'm glad hard work paid off :)
It's a fun game, solid gameplay, and I love the pixel art! Well done :D
Cheers. I got to admit art is not my strongest skill, so encouragement in that department is much appreciated! :)
I now know I would not want to be a shoe salesman! :)
Fun and challenging game and I really liked the artwork! I knew it was Married with Children without even needing to read the description. Great job!
Hah I'm glad it hit the spot with source material, it's always quite hard to get right, specially when one is not professional graphic artist :)
I think it's a bit too challenging with day cycle and all that, it probably should have been more arcade-y like Tapper with lives or like Donald Duck Playground with no real goal, you just work for money and how well you do gives you more money to spend on goodies like new fishing gear or bowling ball :D
like it :-) nice and fun game. And graphic works well
Thanks. I don't think art is my strongest skill, so kind words are much appreciated :)
That's a very cool and fun game! I like the visuals a lot
Cheers - I don't consider myself that good of an artist, so I'm glad you did notice the art :) Thank you for playing.
A rather interesting mechanic here. You've got a difficult game that is pretty fun, but gets a little monotonous and might need something to break it up a little bit. You definitely captured the MWC tone.
Hah yeah, believe it or not, I actually went - hey, that would make it more like job that you don't want to do, so lets call it a "conscious design choice" :D Thank you for playing :)
