Cool Idea, would realy like a small guide on how to play. The pixelart is also very nice!

Nice memory and speed game, I didn't really get if there was an ending, nor how to lose. Great job nonetheless ^^

Idea is pretty cool and fun to play. Art is so nice!

The guys kept stacking so I couldn't give them the drinks. Also I couldn't give the purple drink to anyone for some reason

I like the idea, but it seems to have some issues that break it hard. I tried cleaning the vomit repeatedly and it wouldn't get clean, but my money went into the deep negatives and I got stuck :/
The music is a bit loud and the web embed looks a bit weird unfortunately, but nevertheless I really like the old west vibes!

Nice art, and I like the little description that each character has. I ran into a bug after the second day where all the characters would just stay in the same spot right on top of each other, so i couldnt give them drinks.

The last drink causes a bug, can't be served and you're stuck with it.

Really nice! Was a bit hard to read the tutorial while hving everything moving fast at the beginning, but once you get the gist it's pretty addictive. Love the music and the graphics. The texts seem pretty funny even though sometimes it's so crazy that I don't have time to read them aha.
Very cool game overall

Nice game, I really enjoyed playing it. The sounds are great and I really like the graphics. Nice work! :)

really creative idea! I find it funny how the NPCs just keep sliding arround making a mess, the game got really chaotic very quickly lol. would love to see some of the cut features back

Great take on the theme! I really like all of the descriptions of the characters and drinks. I noticed that there was some leeway on running out of cash/reputation, and I was able to unlock all the drinks really quickly by ignoring all the vomit and tanking my reputation to rack up cash. It could probably be a bit more punishing to encourage harder decisions.

Alright that was a little addictive. It was fun, otherwise I wouldn't be playing 5~10 more minutes past the last upgrade. I have to say, the best thing I like about this game is the sound effect and music. The music was really apt and the sound effects really liven this game. I also liked the surprisingly coordinate pathfinding your characters do. The game was honestly not much of a challenge at all, but I really can't say I didn't have fun serving alcohol to the wild west cowboys.

Pretty fun! I liked how you put in several different characters to serve, it really gives the game a nice variety. It was a little too easy for my tastes, but I still enjoyed it.

Loved to play your game and had fun with the puke bug 😆 Really nice and polished entry!

frozenfire926 Oct 2022, 12:45

What a great entry! Was pretty fun and got a bit hectic as time went on. One thing that was frustrating was when you gave the drink to the wrong person because they got in the way 😆 Keep on making games!

Erlioniel6 Oct 2022, 21:26

I was expecting a bar brawl, especially when sheriff came in! 🍻 Anyway a good entry! Keep on!

Love the diversity in the customers sprites and the music is fun. I got confused at first with the vomit not disappearing but otherwise really fun gameplay. Good work!

Sorry it took me so long to get back to your game! I gave away a lot of free drinks before I realized I was giving away free drinks apparently haha. However, the gameplay is fun and I like how simple it is. Although sometimes the graphics didn't sort properly, the music was great and kept it very upbeat and lively! Overall, well done!
