Unfortunately, running the linux build, I just get a black screen after the unity splash :(

Holy moly, the download size is huge. Maybe consider making a smaller game to get more plays! :)

The humor was very funny! I think the game has too many rough edges to feel in the flow, like it was hard to pickup coins, drop them, activate the machine, etc. So I'd recommend focussing on the feel with a simpler world. Maybe think about what game mechanics could make the game unique, because just like that it feels a bit plain.

Good job on adding voice acting ;)

I really enjoyed the atmosphere of this entry, the idea and concept compelled me to explore everywhere for the coins so I could gamba, but ended up softlocking myself after spending all my money on gamba and booze for the snail(?) :laughing: overall, a cool vibe that reminded me of something like an eastern European Shenmue. Great entry!

Funny game, was a bit tedious picking up coins, but good job on the atmosphere!

Unfortunately, I couldn’t find the last four coins to get the drink and see what happens next, but from what I did experience, the game made me smile! The dialogue were funny, the sky sprite felt really cozy, and even though the location was small, it was fun to explore every little corner.

Thanks, Mr. Cat!
The object handling was a bit tricky, but I really liked the universe — even if it’s totally unrealistic.
I mean, I bought a cat a drink to get a special coin from a snail so I could repay my debt to a beaver… with €20 coins.
And we all know €20 coins DON'T EVEN EXIST 😆
