Needs a good bit of work honestly. UI is confusing and the game doesn't really do a good job of leading the player anywhere. Keep working and It could be something!

I am Heizenberg)) Good work with business growing!

[VideoDog] Thanks for the advises, we have debug the tutorial but yes this version is not perfect ;)

[DrFallos] Thanks :), we are all Heizenberg !

It seems to have potential, but needs a polish in tutorial.

This was quite fun. I love games like this. It's a lot of button mashing though, which makes it a bit annoying to play for a long period of time. Overall, it's decent.

desperadosstudio 2015-12-17 18:56

[Saivan] Thanks ^^
It will be a post Ludum version with more content and a real tutorial, don't worry :)

[Diventurer] Thanks a lot :)
Yeah for this version you don't have a buy all and get all button and we doesn't had the time to implement the event system and a lot of new features, so stay tuned :D

Cool game in a pleasant fallaut style, but need to modify.

desperadosstudio 2015-12-17 19:11

[Tantumgames] Thank you :)
You also have a huge thanks of our graphic artist because you're the first on to notice the reference ^^
Yeah as I said before it will be improved a lot after the Ludum ;)

Interesting game in an early state. It seems there is a lot of work left. I encountered a few bugs:
- I couldn't start a new game.
- At one time I could buy drugs even when there where 0 left. When I reached the weight limit there where -19 left.
- Another time there was -99 left and I had 110/100 for weight and 1751/1000 for cash.
- I encountered a price of 0.
- Selling drugs takes a long time.

I think it would be easier for the player if the tutorial would be integrated directly into the game.

It seems like a good idea, but I found it very confusing! It'd be good if you could find a way to teach how to play by holding the player's hand through the first week or something.

desperadosstudio 2015-12-17 20:35

[loxo] Thanks for the feedback ^^ Yeah it's a really early state you can expect a lot more for future version ;)

I have took note of your buglist, thanks for taking the time to do it :)
Yes totally but we have lake a lot of time to do it, that's why it's so basic (To be precise we only have nearly 35hours to make this game so we must have focus on main features ^^)

desperadosstudio 2015-12-17 20:37

[Cherishing.Team] Yeah it's exactly the idea I wanted to do for the tutorial, but as I said just before the time wasn't our friend to do it ^^
But it will be done in future version don't worry ;)

THis game really needs to have a clear UI, it's to long for the player to handle it properly ! but good work !

randomhuman 2015-12-19 17:22

This game was a lot of fun, I was playing for ages. There's definitely a lot of rough edges though, too much clicking required to do things and the prices are sometimes insane.

desperadosstudio 2015-12-22 21:23

[SayRafon] Thank you ^^
Yeah a post-Ludum version will come soon and we have working a lot on it ;)

[randomhuman] We are really glad to hear this, thank you :)
Stay tuned for the next version because we have added a lot of content (and a lot of ergonomic work, like max value selected by default and prices more stable, with max and min for ex) ;)

The UI should be simpler, but it's in the right direction.

Unfortunately, I'm no good at this type of game. The graphics are pretty nice, and the background music is good. The writing isn't bad, but has some grammar mistakes. The gameplay idea isn't incredibly original, but still pretty interesting. I like that you took the time to implement a tutorial.

I just didn't get far enough into the game to say much about it.

xanjos 2016-01-03 18:58

Shame you didn't have time to finish the terminal and implement some random events because that would have made the game a bit more interesting instead of constantly waiting for the right time to buy/sell your drugs but this was a rather fun entry to play.

pantoufle 2016-01-03 21:15

I broke the game by buying at 0 and selling at max value on the following day.
Other than that, the idea is great and I really liked the music.
Great job!
