I definitely laughed at myself as I threw soemthing like my 20th beer way over the targets head and watched it smash into the wall behind him.
It's a fun little game, it takes the right touch to get it right, and it's simple enough to play.
The only suggestion I have is that it's a bit hard to judge how hard to throw the beer when it's done. I was just guessing at the power meter most of the time until I got a feel for it.
Fun game though!
Agree with @burgee, throwing beers is a little too difficult. Personally I feel like the throw charges too slowly. But visual design & game design are great, I love the concept.

Hoo boy, these fellas sure like their beer huh?
The game was neat! I definitely felt pressured by the constant stream of orders coming in.
The music was good too! Nice work.
Fun game! I was half paying attention to the achievements while I was trying to satisfy my thirsty customers, but was a nice touch. I started to get the hang of it, and then if became addicting. Like I was trying to streamline the process. I stopped looking at the beer as I was filling it up, I just knew the right hand motion to get that not so foamy but just right beer. I memorized my customers distance to roughly remember how hard to throw it each time. Ya got me, I got sucked in. :clap: I didn't understand how the theme fit into this though, also you game crashed a lot for me, but other than that, was great :grinning:

Hah, fun and creative game you got here. I will admit to having smashed a couple beers against the wall as well. But the art is beautiful and the game well made. Great job!

It looks like a funny idea. I does look very pretty. But, the slow controls and the difficulty in figuring out how much foam to have and how to aim the beer launch makes it really hard for me to enjoy playing it.
This game is fun! Got me hooked for some time. The graphics are very good and throwing beer at costumers is even better! The game is fun but its a bit slow and hard to understand the mechanics in the beginning, but good game overall, keep the good work.
Very cool idea and art, but gameplay is very tireing. I totaly agree with everithing Frozedon writen.

thanks for yours feed back everybody.
@derek-brouwer : How many reputation = time limit for service and new commands decrease. Maximum foam = worse is it i agree to you, it's not clear

I wish a pub like this did exist somewhere.

Fun and nice gameplay, but some visual help with beer throwing would be great
One of my favorite games is tapper in the arcade so I had to play this one. I have to say the pouring and throwing controls are pretty difficult to master and even after explaining the theme it's still a bit of a stretch. However It's a good start and has some interesting concepts.

Smashed too many beers to the wall. I was more worried if the beer will land where supposed than completing other customers and filling other cups. :) I liked the game and the mechanics. The theme is somewhat vague but it's an overall very good game and that's what matters most.
Beer simulator 2.0 is out ! I really love the graphics of this game. A bit confused by the interpretation of the theme though...

Haha this game made me crack up laughing. I just kept throwing beers and all I heard were the smashes of glass as they hit the floor ;D Nice work! Graphically it looked like a really nice and cosy bar to be in, and i think you nailed the feel of being a bar tender.

The concept of the game is fun but i had a really hard time making the beers get to the dudes i would many times pass over then or just throw it at their feets...maybe be nicer with the hit box? =P it can just be me being bad as well.
Stubbed my toe playing this. Worth it, brilliant game :)

Loved it, really nice idea and fun gameplay execution. The game did crash twice (once when trying to open how-to-play, next when trying to exit from gameplay), but I really did not care, it was fun, thanks!
I was first septic but then I've been surprised by how fun it was. It's a cool game with nice graphics and sounds, but it felt a bit empty and the physics hen you throw the beer were lunar, too slow for me. It breaks the pace of the game. But I loved making loads of beer.
