Great game, I liked the begining cutscene and music which have/are references to Star Wars. I also enjoyed the gameplay and the overall concept. 

Developer

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it!

Great game concept with funny characters, just wish it had better execution! It's really awkward having to go downstairs in order to rewind the tapes and all, wish that was a completly seperate scene / room to be more "detached" from the customers. Also when you go up to the stalls I really wish that only rewinded tapes were actually shown, took me a while to figure out that my tapes werent rewinded. 

Anyways good job on the game, all around it was fun to play

Developer

Thanks for the observations.
I though of making separate lists of the current genre you have to put back, but then I realize it would make the game to simple. That's why I added the "Sort" button, so you can sort by what you need, for example, by Rewinded in case you're downstairs, to make it easier separate the already rewinded tapes, and by Genre upstairs. I missed the wrong sfx for the "not rewinded" or "not the correct genre" in the jam (already added) but I will take your suggestion and possible make something more visual in the UI with the not rewinded tapes.
Stay tunes for the update next week!

This game is really nice, although it was hard for me to understand how to place back the movies or how the menu that displayed the movie list. I think it is a really good game that may be a little confusing. Great job!

Developer

Thank you! Yes, the tutorial was kind of incomplete without that thing you mention about the movie list (Tab key BTW)
I'm working on a big update with lots of improvements, including: better information about the controls, Shop/Upgrade system, new NPCs and a lot more fun.

Its amaizing how fun a game with such a simple mechanich can be, I couldnt stop playing it. Excellent job, perfect execution, 

The only thing I didnt like is that i didnt found a use for the money, and level 1 is endless. 

Overall, excellent game, Great Work :D

Developer

Thank you very much! Your words really mean a lot to me.
About the money and the level 1: yes, I run out of time, and preferred to add the main menu, intro, music and little small details in the last minutes (like the tutorial I made just 40 minutes before the deadline, never coded sooo fast in my life!)
But I'm working on a much better and fun version, with Shop/Upgrade system, better management of the VHS (not 100% "random" generated, but analyzed what the player needs), more NPCs, and a few more tweaks I'm sure you're gonna love it, so stay tuned!
You made an AMAZING and FUN game too! Congratulations!
Thanks again

Wow! I love the overall graphics and addictive gameplay loop! Great entry!

Developer

Thank you very much! Yours is great too! Congratulations

wow i really impress.. the game feels so good. it actually trap me lol. Overall great game. But... the pacing of the game is slow, i never really lose. so i dont know if you can lose. picking up the pace would make it better or putting a difficulty setting. but i really like the way the controllers slowly but steadily sink into my brain. i can i see you work really hard on this. congratulations!

Developer(+1)

Thank you for your kind words! Yes, right now it became very repetitive and there's nothing to do.
I'm working on a big update to make it more fun. Add Shop/Upgrade system, improve the way the VHS spawn, so you don't finish with LOTS of Action/Adventure/Comedy movies. Also the difficult will ramp. And I'm planning some ending too! Stay tuned!
