The Story is super creative. effing yourself over with the first coffee haha :D I really thought at first this is a game about serving coffee and the "real" goal suprised me a lot :D

Lovely art and relaxing music, also making the quality of the counterfeit money dependent on my drawing skills was really clever.

I had fun playing your game, super great entry :D

Submitted

Wow this was so creative! The mix between making coffee and making money was perfect, and made it challenging at times too. Everything was super charming, from the art to music, it was all fantastic! Super fun game, great job :D

Such a cute little game! I found out about you guys from mokadev's YouTube video on her VTuber game in which she mentioned that she'd be participating in this game jam. I'm so pleased that this next game was just as charming and fun to play. Great job!!!! (p.s. can't wait to see a video on the behind the scenes hijinks)

Developer

Waaa thank you for the kind comment! Really touched that you enjoy both the game and my videos. Really excited to put out the one on this game soon! ^_^ Thanks again!

What an absolute delight - I loved the blend of counterfeiting with being a barista - although I wasn't very good at doing both I'm afraid - love the art style and the tutorial was great... kept my interest and covered everything. Congrats on a good game!

Very Good and Creative game

I love how you can multitask, making coffee and making the bill at the same time. tho the switching has a bit of problems. I was not sure how the draw was calculated

The tutorial was also very lovely introduction to the game

The art style was so cozy, and the audio was fitting to

Great work

Also play our game if you can: Spectral Mask

Such a cute and creative game!! I loved the art style, and juggling coffee-making with counterfeiting was way more fun than I expected! The dialogue and tutorial have such a great tone. They really add to the charm and make the whole experience feel lighthearted and interesting.

If I had one suggestion, it’d be to show how close you are to the overall $$$ goal while working in the shop. The end of day summary is great, but I found myself wondering how far off I was during the day.

Overall, super fun and wonderfully made! This is one of my favorites in the jam.

I loved this! The art is superb, and the music is super vibes too!
Congrats on the submission. I think there could be a few ui polishes here and there that would make the experience more cohesive (e.g. the tutorial seems a little weird to pass through the dialogues, the bill doesn't have a timer bar, etc). But, besides that, superb work. Keep it up!

Submitted

I loved the art, the gameplay and the music.

However, people didn't give me time to make bills, the suspicious bar would grow too quickly, maybe I'm doing something wrong. Like I wish you had like 5 or 10 seconds before the next customer arrives.

Other than that, super fun to play and cute art. Great job!

Developer

Thank you for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed :) If it's not clear, when the customer is distracted (they'll be holding up some sort of item to make this clear) is when they're not looking at you, and you have time to be making bills. You're not supposed to have time to make a bill completely in one go- you usually need to do some waiting and to jump between the two stations. Sorry if that wasn't clear! If we had more time, we'd make the tutorial even better.

Thank you again for playing and commenting! ^_^

This is brilliant game design. in such short time too! this was very enjoyable!

Developer

Thank you! Really glad that you enjoyed! :]

Submitted

Adorable! The game looks dare i say, scrumptious. The idea of being a being a store owner that really doesnt want customers is very funny to me and is used well for comedy in the dialouge/cutscenes. One of my faves from the jam so far! But i am also a big fan of your youtube vids so i may be biased :P

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for the kind comment! Glad the comedy hits, I was a bit insecure about my writing so it makes me happy that it carries through ^_^ Thank you for the high praise, both for the game and my videos!

Submitted

The graphics and overall presentation are gorgeous! Very funny overall. It wasn't clear to me if the customers will wait forever or if I could just string them along while I forge massive amounts of cash. Basically, I assumed I had to get the order done in a timely manner, which meant I only got 1 bill or so done per customer, leading to me getting fired.

Developer

Thank you for playing!!

The customers will wait forever, but their distraction time goes down as they wait so at some point you don't have enough time to make the money! So, you have to make the money as quickly as you can before the time runs out, but there's no penalty for taking a while on their order.

Our tutorial could have definitely been tweaked to explain this better! We'll note this for later :)

Submitted

such a fantastic idea, everything amazing all around, so so cute I loved it!

Developer

Thank you!!

Submitted

Love it, the art is great and the gameplay is satisfying. I do wish the counterfeit drawing mechanic was a bit more strict, I eventually started only vaguely gesturing the shapes and still got perfect scores.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback, and for playing!!

Very charming game! Balancing between serving coffee and making counterfeit bills really makes the restaurant management sim gameplay much more fun. This game inspired me to make counterfeit bills in real life

Developer

Thank you sm! So glad to hear we're inspiring the next generation of counterfeit money creators <3

Submitted

Loved it! The only thing I don't like is the boss. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GET 150 BILLS MADE BRO😭

Developer

Thank you!!!

Bills can actually be worth up to 10K tho, depending on how well you do the minigames! So ideally you shouldn't need 150! Apologies if that wasn't clear, we'll make a note of it for the future :)

Submitted

This is such a cute game with so much personality. The music is calming and the story panels are charming.

It's fun to balance the coffee making with being illegal.

Amazing work :)

Developer

Thank you!! So glad u enjoyed the illegal activities!
