Sellout punk is game about being a bartender in a cyberpunk city. But you owe a big time money to local mobster boss Mr. BabyFace. You need to work your ass off to pay off your debt - and sell pieces of your life if you are not able to gather enough credits. But how big part of your life can you sell before you stop being a human?

Team behind this game:
* Jakub Eremiáš: Art and animation
* Jan Holan: Design and programming
* Mikuláš Hrdlička: Design and programming
* Jan Knot: Music
* Sterling Tuttle: Art

-Almost all the art you can see in the game is made by awesome duo Jakub and Sterling - but because some parts of used shaders and dialog box are not our, we opted out of graphics competition.
-This was out first Ludum Dare.
-Most of our team is also working on a big game called Silicomrades, check it out on our Itch.io and follow us on facebook!

Very difficult to move the hands around and unclear as to how to serve drinks even after knowing controls! Great art, though.

I *love* the idea of tying the "life is currency" to selling limbs/organs, instead of just generic "health". Cyberpunk is a perfect fit!

I couldn't actually work out how to play, however.

It looked like it might have been pretty good, but I wasn't able to pick up drinks (on Windows version) without mashing space/ctrl many times. You should probably try to fix up the input responsiveness. I'll rate this later if it gets fixed.

Really nice looking game! Congratulations for the Art style, it's amazing. The only thing I didn't like like was the controls themselves, as it's quite tricky to move each hand with the keyboard, and the "Grab" button doesn't seem to always work.

Very difficult to control (at least playing in windows)
But the artwork is amazing, I'm in love with it! The music was pretty good too! Great entry!

This is broken for me. Looks beautiful, but I can't pick up drinks at all.

ahojky, škoda že si to nemůžu zahrát na mac

Unfortunately, even when knowing the controls, the game is completely unplayable for me. I can't pick up any glasses with ease, nor do I know what to do with them.

It's also a shame you opted out of Graphics category, as this is where the game shines along with mood. Shaders and custom dialogues boxes don't disqualify you from Graphics category. I've seen complete asset flips asking to be rated in graphics.

The idea is cool and i love the combination of bartender sim with some sort of visual novel. The graphics is very good. The controlls fill a little uncofortable, but you can get used to them. It's a bit strange, that i have sold my color vision, but still was able to see colors. Oh and the atmosphere is fantastic.

I can't get why there is no option to vote for graphics. The art is really worth getting marks. Same as sound.

The game is hard to play. And I can't get where are bugs and where are my mistakes when I fill the cups twice or can't pick up something.

Mood is the top. This depression and hate, I feell it, I trust it. I hate the money I owe to Mr.Babyface.

This is a very fun game. I like that you actually need to develop skills to not get wrecked. This feels like a cross between VA-11 Hall-A and Surgeon Simulator.

If there was one this I would improve, it would be the audio production. The music is sometimes clipping and distorted, and the game would feel more alive if there were sound effects for pouring, clicking buttons, etc.

Very nice jam game overall!

love the art work! keep up the good work!

Couldn't play due to control bugs, but the art is gorgeous.

I think there is an issue with the resolution, I can barely see that the characters have their requests in your screenshot, but ingame I can't look high enough to see what is in their request.
If you fix it I will come back and try the game again.

Unplayable. Controlling hands independantly with keys is a terrible idea. Can't even pick things up.

The graphics are gorgeous and the concept is fun with a great setting. Unfortunately it just doesn't seem to work properly, for me at least. I could pick things up but nothing I did would allow me to put them down or actually make a drink.
