I absolutely loved this game!!! The art style, the game play, the music,  and the unexpected message at the end. It was all perfect. 10/10 would recommend checking this game out.

Ahh thank you! So happy you loved it! (And especially happy you liked the music, haha!)

Loved it. But I made one mistake and there is apparently no way to fix that. But still funny and hilarious some of the dialogue options. I enjoyed! 

DeveloperSubmitted(+1)

Oh yeah, who doesn't love some cracked dialogue options right? The good ol' intrusive thoughts of food service workers haha! Thank you so much for playing, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Our artist did amazing for sure! Thank you for playing :]

I love the artstyle, I'm a sucker for low poly 3D and the use of the palette in a 3D game was so pleasant to see. The character design is cute and the animations are cartoony but fluid, it gives a very polished feel! Amazing game, I would love to see this expanded on!! Congrats on this

DeveloperSubmitted(+1)

Thank you for playing! Our artist did absolutely amazing! I was genuinely blown away when I saw the stuff she was making - super epic. 

Developer

Thank you so much! Y'all are so kind <3 Very glad that you found the low poly style and character designs cute and pleasing to see! It was honestly a blast working with the palette challenge

Really cozy game! If you ever make this into a large game I'd love for there to be some more to making each drink, like you physically doing parts of it. Great job!

Developer

Thanks so much for the kind words and feedback! :)

Super cute game!! I love being able to talk to each of them ^^ My fave bit is choosing the latte art for the drink… overall super lovely!

Developer

Thank you so much for the lovely words! ^^ Glad that you liked that game mechanic <3

I gave this game 2 separate runs, i came out as both a jerk and a best little corporate slave.

It was fun playing this game, I enjoyed the art style and I love how interactions can go both ways, good stuff overall, amazing job!

Developer

Thank you so much for playing the different routes and the kind words, it means a lot ! :) We're glad you enjoyed it

Very nice entry.  Love the vibe... I almost gave I stepped on a bee customer a bee coffee... for reasons.   Oh, and thanks for the $1 from the tip jar. Congrats on your entry.

Bahaha 'for reasons' xD Thanks so much for playing through to the end and loving the vibe!

Aww, that's a really cute game you made! I enjoyed all the stories and abviously the visuals c:
There is no way to throw away a drink you made by mistake (or maybe there is but I haven't found it )
P.S.
Why "little corporate slave" at the end? I don't find it cozy tbh :0

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much! A bin to throw away a drink made by mistake has yet to be implemented and would have been a great addition, so a big thank you for pointing that out to us :) ! 


And hahaha, that is a very valid point! The little corporate slave comment does skew with the cozy and wholesome vibe for sure xD but we'd kept it in for the submission as it made as laugh when it was first pitched

Submitted(+2)

This was so nice!!! I gotta admit, it made me almost cry lol. Really fits the theme, and the art looks great. Reminds me of Coffee Talk. Good job!

Developer(+1)

Aw, thank you so much for playing the game and resonating with it! :') I'll personally have to go and check out Coffee Talk for sure.

Hahaha I'm a jerk employee it seems HAHAHA. So very cute and fun talking to the customers! The art was really really amazing too. I don't think it needed a dash button to run though as there is no timer? The sounds and story were great. The text could be a bit bigger, especially on the longer texts but, what a fantastic cute little gem. Polished and well done!

Developer

Bahahah you're not alone <3 we quickly learnt that it isn't difficult to be a jerk employee as well. And now that you mention it, the dash function isn't really needed for sure. Thank you so much for the kind words and feedback!! :)

Thanks so much! ^^ That means a lot!
