It's hard to track down the exact cause as I can't reproduce it inside the Unity Editor, it only sometimes happens in the WebGL build, but I believe it has something do with animation events.\n\n@mrtroy Thanks, Glad you enjoyed playing it! :D \n\n@raoz Thanks! The original idea was to travel to different locations on a map, and you could only buy certain products in certain locations, and they could be sold for more in other locations. I had to cut this down to 1 location and introduce the weather mechanic instead, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to finish during the jam. This is why there's still characters movement, I agree, this movement does make it a bit unusual and repetitive. If I was to work on the game futher I'd either make it a UI only clicker game, or stick with the original idea and have a much more interactive environment with different buildings and locations!\n\n@zugai89 Thanks (: The balancing was a bit rushed without much testing, but each item has hidden traits, and can sell better depending on weather, weekday\/weekend, and poster hype :D\n\n@dan-colman Thanks :D That was the aim! to keep the gameplay simple, like the kind of game you can play on mobile to pass the time.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"jmswrnr","author_uid":"1102130","time":"2019-05-02T05:43:32Z","epoch":1556775812,"modified":1556775812,"text":"Looks like the bug might be fixed! :pray: Just got to max level (10) in 30 days, how fast can you do it?
