You are the last employee in a bar in a nondescript location and you have to man the store by yourself until your shift ends. The problem is time seems to be a standstill in the last hour of your shift. Customers who have already come and gone keep coming back for more while seemingly not remembering anything that happened previously. How long can you survive in the brutal cycle of alcohol and late night depression?

Fight off customers as they storm your bar over and over in a seemingly endless cycle, certain patrons need different drinks so be sure to pay attention to the drink they requesting. Customers will get frustrated with you if you hand them the wrong thing or if you wait to long so be sure to keep an eye on both of those things. The game runs on a three strike system, perhaps a pickle loving crustacean could help you with that?

Loved the SFX, the sprites could be better. But I found it very funny overall, congrats!

Very funny although a bit difficult to make out the letters (like dr bob) It took me way too much time to notice that I was not grabbing anything if I didn't pick a glass before

Challenging but very fun and addicting, I highly recommend checking out the help option in the main menu before playing

A funny game, one of my colleague kept smiling and laughing while playing this game, and that caught our attention to play it too as it's hard to make people laugh that hard!

This is a really funny game. It got real creepy when it wouldn't turn to 12 and I think I died. Awesome game!!!

Once I'd checked out the help, this was actually very fun! The graphics were awful but awesome at the same time, and the music and sfx added that je ne sais quoi. The difficultly could have ramped up a bit quicker I think, and perhaps more items that didn't use a beer mug - but it was fun while it lasted. Nice job!

Dang, rest in peace, Toad. The graphics were great, and I love how after 11:59:59, the people coming in the building became more and more abstract. Hilarious idea, and well made too! Great job all around.

This was a very fun idea! It feels a bit unclear on what every customer wanted, I got the bob drink but for the rest it was a bit weird to me.

The tutorial also took quite a bit, at one points I thought I had to click to continue but this just cancelled the entire tutorial. Maybe make this quick and clickable so that people can go back to it when they want.

I loved the characters and art, was very nice!
