Awesome style and concept! However, I was shooting in my room and got stuck in the wall behind my bed and missed several days of work...

Good social commentary. It would've been nice if there was a way to close up shop or something- can you, once you get enough money?

So funny ! We really had a good laugh with my friends testing your games. I'm fond of the puzzling style with an exit door. Hilarious to see all the guys going crazy with weapons on the street :)

Yes. I was wondering if someone would be able to effectively show this idea. Excellent work.

I love the simple bouncing circle-guys. The social commentary is as good as the gameplay.

solid. May sound odd, but I really like the game's dimensions. Really fits the experience well

I was waiting to see something like this pop up. Very nicely done! You're already featured on indiegames, too! Excellent work.

I could not for the life of me figure out how to play it. It looks okay, good colours anyway. The gameplay is, as far as I can tell, completely non-existent. Could you post better instructions?

Clever concept, zaratustra. I don't think it would work as well with more realistic people.

Nice job I enjoyed the concept you were going for.

Amazing take on the theme! Loved the pacing of it and the multiple endings.

Lovely concept. Walking back to your house to see the destruction you've sold is really awesome

Nicely done! Wasn't expecting that! Cute animations as well.

I think the title is a *little* on the nose, but this is great.

Was a bit lost at first, but once you get a grasp on it, it becomes pretty darn cool :D
soupy17 Dec 2012, 23:12
I wish there was an ending for allowing your store to go under and allowing 0 deaths. Otherwise I thought the graphics were quite good and the concept was well executed. Some sound would've been appreciated.

I love how I can start shooting while customers still buying my guns. Feels like a psychopath
raarlac18 Dec 2012, 04:47
I never get tired of replaying this. It would be nice if you release a full version
pereubu18 Dec 2012, 21:50
great idea, a bit hard to control but still nice to play
Zathalos19 Dec 2012, 04:49
Fantastic game.
Pierrec19 Dec 2012, 11:30
This is very clever, and actually quite fun! One of the best take of the them I've seen yet.
The characters are disturbingly adorables.

Alright, that was quite awesome. Great idea, made well, although you should probably have better described the controls. Overall a really neat little game.

Oh, I really liked this little game. It's so simple and straightforward, but the message kind of gets to you still.

I also love the graphics. The actual gameplay is not bad at all, it can be quite engaging. So good job, person who made this.
