Minature Myth Merchant by Profugo Barbatus

[raw]
made by Profugo Barbatus for Ludum Dare 56 (JAM)

itch<em>game</em>art.png Have you ever wanted to run a pet store, selling the cutest little critters of old, and the accruements to assist them? Well, welcome to Worms Miniature Mythologies store, where that fantasty comes true! There's only one catch, the critters chose you, if you're worthy.

Well, we started on what was to be a pet shop sim style game, but I'm afraid to say we didn't finish it. Between travel fatigue and terrible scope control, what we have here is fairly barebones, but technically playable, and we ain't afraid to say "its cute but boring". Better to release, right?

The idea is good ! But I think the camera angle is not flattering the style, the ui is not really clear too.

It's a great start nonetheless and you can be proud to publish a game at the end of a game jam :)

Loved the music and the art. Too bad you were delayed and couldn't finish it in time, the game has potential ! While there are some glitches on the UI and I find that knowing what the disappointed customers were searching for could have been a nice touch. The animation of the customer is pretty great for a game jam !

Loved the art style and attention to detail on keeping the tone light. Well done on the feel of the game. As expected, the features are a really cool concept and you've got an interesting angle on the genre here. Would love to see where this goes given more time!

The art style is super cute and the general loop is already working pretty good! I think if you want to work further on it you should definitely rework some of the UI elements to fit better, to be more specific - when picking the items for your shelfs. I also encountered a litte bug where my cute little clients got stuck in a corner and had to get drunk with me after the shift :DDD

Very cute game && if you keep working on it you can make it even better <3 well done!

I'm glad you were still able to share what you had made so far, this game has some great bones! The atmosphere and tone are in the right place and the concept of a tiny pet shop for this theme was a good idea.

I loooove the artstyle!! Lil fellas were cute, but it would be cool to see them more for the theme to show clearly

The gaameplay is lacking a lot of things, but i love the idea and i think with some more work you can make it into a very cool game!
Very cool that you still publiched it too (: glad i can still see the beautiful art
