The idea is quite fun and I think that with some work, an actual game could be made from it.

The game is not really just yet. The way to win is pretty straightforward and linear.

The music was not good.

I loved the graphics and walking "animation".

I loved the graphics alot. I just believe there wasn't much idea to begin with and nothing really to make a game from. I feel it could feel alot more like a game if you only had a time limit

@boltkey @c0d3d Thanks for the feedback! I might make another version later

As it has been said, the main issue is the lack of fun. Maybe you could add mechanics like things falling into your caddy, having a too heavy caddy for your age so you need to go without it and then come back to validate the purchase, with maybe some timer before the shop closes.

Don't know what you could add, there are a lot of ideas, and the game would be really nice to play, the art is cute and the audio is great!

It is very simple, but really nice as your first compo!

I liked how this guy was changing when purchasing things :smile:

Great job!

And oh, I found a little bug, when you spam "finish shopping: ss.png

I think that on one hand you have approached the theme well, but on other hand you should focus more on the game mechanisms. Most important think is that you were able to finish it, as every experience counts! Good job !

The ageing thing of the main character is really cool.

the idea and the graphics are good !. I think if it was not for some bugs it would make it more fun!
