Hello, overall I really like the game.
Hopefully more content will be added in the future, ive bookmarked the game and followed to receive updates from you, im hyped. I like the music, the sounds, the "voices" of the customers. The funny stories they tell why they need the item, the characters themself and how they speak to you. I like that there are many characters from different genres. The Art is really cool, I like the style and the different backgrounds. The cat sleeping is so cute. The Characters are really well done and the icons look fantastic.
And this all done within 5 days, like daym.
Overall I had a great time.
I have a few things that Id like to see improve:
Item gathering: I think it would be better if I a) dont have to gather items or b) i actually have to do things. chop wood, mine copper, or go to a market and buy it, maybe hire someone who buys it for me. As it is now its just tedious and it doesnt add anything to the game.
Sharpening: I dont know why but I cant get it really sharp. Ive restarted it multiple times to get the tutorial text but im too stupid for it.
Customer Sastisfaction: If the guy asks for a Hammer and I give him a Dagger he shouldnt be happy. Heck, he even can decline the item and leave me a bad google review (did they have google reviews back in the day?)
Item Forging: I dont like the restrictions. why does a dagger need an 8 Pixel blade? If the customer is being an arsehole he gets a big handle with a 1 pixel blade. Sadly i had to give him an actual dagger.
Some very nitpicky things:
If you switch menus fast, after a while you get the hang of it, the music switching becomes a bit dizzy. Backyard is also pretty loud compared to the others.
Maybe i can ask the Customers a few questions? What did the neighbor do to deserve only a small hammer injury? Maybe they can talk back, integrate ChatGPT in this and let me have some dialogue options with Sanji.
Overall i really like the game and ill get notified once you add some more to this.
