During the first two attempts on “easy,” i thought i had seen everything, but i didn't find some items. After that, ‘easy’ and “normal” were doable :D

The store owner should think about the placement of items, it looks a bit sub optimal ^^

Very cool game, fits the theme very well, also funny intro!XD

Cool game! I managed to beat easy and normal first try but hard did take me a few. I do appreciate the genuine difficulty spike. One recommendation I would have is letting you go through the dialogue at the start a lot faster.

I guess this shop only sells ostrich eggs?

The difficulty levels seem pretty well chosen. Easy mode is not trivial while you are still learning the controls, but with some practice hard is quite beatable.

Dunno why, but I got instantly "the corridor" vibes ;) The game is def. funny and easy to play! Maybe tune timer a notch up for the easy level (at least for us dinosaurs :P)

The core game is already intense, but the short burst of the sound track is almost terrifying.

I was really getting some backrooms vibes from this store, in a kind of cool way - I loved the uncanny feeling of walking around these weirdly placed shelves.

That said, is it meant to always be possible to beat each level? I played several rounds, and on some playthroughs I checked every shelf several times, but it seemed like the store was just missing some items on my list every time I played. I wasn't sure if this was a skill issue, an intentional choice to make the vibes feel even more uncanny, or if it was possibly a bug, so I figured I'd ask! :)

Hey @koolruz :) Thanks for trying out the game!

Regarding the items, all items spawns at-least ones and then there are duplicates, so there should be all the items present in the store. Similar thing happened to me during playtest, and when I checked the Hierarchy in Unity, all the items were spawned in store :) Looks like sometimes we miss the items.
I will keep an eye on this and check if its a bug :D More playtest time!

Simple and fun! Really fits the theme. Beat the easy and normal level, but always run out of time when there's only one last item left on hard level XD. And plus I just really wish the shopping list wouldn't hide automatically but only hide when Tab is pressed again.

Love the game ! Had fun trying to collect everything in time X)

Hahaha, I like the humor of the game, it's the first time I really rate humor on this jam :) Really maps to the real like, hahahaha
I like how irrationally and illogically are shop windows are placed, soap can be near pasta pack and turned around to facing the wall :laughing:

A lot more fun than I expected! The intro felt a bit long, maybe if you could click to speed it up that would help? Managed to beat hard after a few tries with 13 seconds remaining! At first I was a bit annoyed that I had to keep hitting tab to look at the list, but then when I started doing the hard level it made sense as an extra thing to keep track of. I would like to see the item models be a bit more unique since the box type items look really similar, same for tomatoes and apples. Overall super fun game, great job!

A really cool game. I really love collecting things.

Wow! Nice game! the aesthetics are so cool :3.

Quite fun and found it funny with how ridiculous the store is. Really gets you into the intense 'where are the damn apples?!' situation. The mouse controls bugged me the most (mouse acceleration maybe?), otherwise I enjoyed the game, great work!

Poor boss man in the store has to work overtime as magically the shop closing time keeps moving later when people are picking up the items! He might deserve that though, after organizing the store this way.

fun game that I was surprisingly bad at!

Nice easy to hop into game, the level progression was great for learning the mechanics. The fact that you get more time for picking up correct items doesn't entirely make sense narrative wise, although I like the idea that the store clerk is so impressed by your shopping prowess that they let you stay an extra couple seconds. Great job!

A good and funny idea. I’m terrible at remembering shopping lists, I spend all time to re-reading them every time :D Great game!

I really enjoy your game—it genuinely gives me that feeling of being busy and a bit flustered while playing. Besides that, I noticed that even if I select the same mode multiple times, the shopping list and the items on the shelves change every time! That makes it highly replayable.

That said, there are still a few areas that could be improved:
First, I think the shelves could be arranged more neatly—it would feel more like a real supermarket that way. Also, I tend to feel a little dizzy when playing.

Geez, this game is so stressful! I like the concept and the challenge that it has the player do! I kept trying a few times to complete the list.

I understand why the shopping list gets hidden a lot (due to adding to the time pressure and ramping up the difficulty etc), but overall that was actually just getting frustrating for me that the list kept being put away. Maybe that should be a possible options toggle on the modes, as the Easy Mode didn't feel that easy. >.<

This feels so real :D - Passed three times the toilet paper until I realize I need some :D It's a really funny take on the theme. Well done!

@miku Thanks a lot for playing and for the feedback! I totally understand the frustration — I’ll look into it :) The idea behind the hidden shopping list was to add a bit of a memory challenge, where players try to remember the items as they shop.

It took me 5 tries to beat the easy mode but just 1 try to beat normal & hard. It's hard to keep track of things when they are clustered in one room. Fun and compact game, accurate representation of real life shopping experience

Oooh the levels are randomized! That was a lot of fun! I had to try 4 times in easy mode, because I kept ending in the situation of walking around looking for the last item and finally finding it as the timer runs out :sweat_smile:

The music was a bit too basey for me, I had to turn down the volume on my headphones to make it less intense for my ears/
