Great concept! I wanted to play through it multiple times to see what kind of trades I could get and/or not get fired, haha :D

So hard to not get fired haha. Also love the attempt at the art. Would be nice to skip the intro chat :)
I love the humour in the game, It keeps up with the theme. The game play is quite smooth. Overall Great Game
Wow. This game is very interesting, great interpretation of the theme! The graphics look terrible but because you were consistent and stuck with this style for the whole game, It grew on me and I actually quite like it now (although the color palette still wasn't the best). Sound effects would have made this game 10 times more funny, music too! Travelling to different towns to see their traders and items was pretty fun. I love the story, there is actually a reason for the gameplay which I haven't seen too often in other games of this theme. Great game!
Very funny. Would like to have this as a complete game with better graphics.
This game was so funny, I was sad when I got fired because I felt I had only experienced half the jokes. Great job, I can tell a lot of thought went into making the gags, and the art was the perfect kind of shitty that added to the whole effect. Truly inspiring! I chuckled at that cart cut scene every time
i got fired for trading a pile of junk and coming back with a horse lol
This was genuinely fun and hilarious, I can't stop playing, although for constructive criticism, the art style as much as it fits the game it didn't look overly good, and the running out of space is a problem at the start but as soon as you upgrade the width and height once the space problem is gone, also its hard to tell what is more valuable, as everything is around the same price. but otherwise one of the most enjoyable games I have played so far
Take that- boss!
Love it- amaing work! :)
I laughed out loud at the boss and the signs. I wasn't quite sure how to play the game effectively (seemed like luck if you had items in the right category they wanted?) so I got fired
Very interesting game. Graphics need some work though, but overall I really liked the game. Good job!
I got fired a lot... haha >.< This was very funny. Great writing work. Looking forward to seeing more from you in the future!
Man, this is great - very funny game, transition between levels kinda too long but overall it's great.
Notes while playing: - wish I could make the text appear by clicking instead of waiting for it to type out every time - its saying "let me speak to your manager!" and I have no idea how to progress - a lot of time between towns, making the player wait isn't fun for us (unless it's loading, which I don't think it is) - I really like the idea and I think with a graphic artist and some clean up, this could actually be a great strategic game - great use of the theme
I agree that I wish I could speed up the text, and the time between towns is way too long. Also, the graphics are rough. Even if art isn't your thing, I feel like you would almost be better off going with simple geometric shapes just to prove out the gameplay.
This game is hilarious. I love the dialogue between the different townspeople, and the gags on the signs were pretty funny too. The art is hilariously in line with the game's sense of humor. Watching the misshapen wheel roll between scenes was funny every time! I know a lot of people are commenting on the art but I honestly think it adds to the humor a ton. The item descriptions were also hilarious. I know I'm saying a ton of the same thing, but basically the writing was awesome, and made me smile.
Awesome job!
