Thanks for the suggestions, I really appreciate you taking the time to write all that out! Those are actually some really solid ideas.

I especially like the risk factor you mentioned with bills/expenses for running them. Adding some danger and management pressure like that could make the gameplay loop a lot more exciting towards the beginning. At the moment there are randomized shortly timed events that take place while you play to keep you on your feet and prepared, but I do agree that there needs to be more for the early game.

I'm already experimenting with a few mechanics along those lines for the next update, including more progression and things that can impact your machines over time. Feedback like this really helps shape where the game goes, so seriously thank you for sharing it!

If you think of any other ideas or critiques while playing, feel free to drop them here!

Thanks for checking it out! I really appreciate the feedback. This project is definitely still a very early prototype and mostly meant to explore the core idea of building a vending machine empire with testing of certain features. I'm still experimenting with mechanics and figuring out what directions to take it in. If you have any more suggestions for features or things you think would make the game better, I'd love to hear them!
