Space Pawn Space Shop
Welcome to the famous Space Pawn Space Shop, situated comfortably along the γ66λ space route. Come here for all your space pawn shop needs!
As the owner of the shop, your job is to pawn the correct items to your alien customers, but to be a good pawnbroker is to know your customers. Sometimes a customer does not know what they actually want, and need you to guide them in the right direction. Sometimes a customer is lying out of their tentacled backside. It is your job to pawn the right item to the right customer. Too many strikes, and your shop is closed down by the Galactic Commerce Bureau!
Learn all there is to know about the different kinds of aliens in the galaxy - and serve them up their request. Listen to all kinds of Alien Radio by changing the signal - and keep your customers satisfied - by reading their body signals. Play until you can reach the amazing S-Tier!
As you can read in the title - signal is everywhere and definitely always was.

Thank you for playing and calling us HD haha - we are unfortunately not Catmitts - but I can say from the bottom of my heart that I wish I were.
@kseniya
I love that so much, thank you
Thank you! We lost our usual 3d artist friends this year - so our very creative programmer had to step in with his trusty pen, pad and scanner!
@bambutcher
Hahaha you might have a point there!
I actually 100% agree with that assessment - I think with one day of just tightening the game loop we'd probably have killed it - but that's the jam-life
Oh my god thank you hahaha - and yes - this is the same ramblings of a mad man - but this time I put way too many hours into the radio instead of the deep truths
@eeva
Hahaha thank you! SPACE PAWN, SPACE SHOP!
but i was on a edible
so it was amazing
good shit my borther
Oh we definitely aim to please on that front hahaha - thrilled to hear it
@conduit
Oh thank you so kindly, it feels great to know that my spazzing with a guitar into the mic and wasting 12 hours into the radio feature wasn't wasted hahaha - the graphic style actually came from a decision where our 3d artists couldn't make it this time - so one of our programmers just brought out pens and paper and scanned it all in!
@apt-prose7
Well said man, haha - hopefully we left you relaxed
Thank you for that lovely comment!
Hahaha thank you! Super-polished we might not be - but handmade and charming we certainly got in spades!
Thank you!
Gameplay became hectic really fast and I think sometimes there maybe was no item that fit the bill before the buyer went away, but I might just have been mistaken about the size or something else.
Anyways, cool idea and nice mood with the radio and all.
Thank you!! So happy you liked it!
@zhangzhimu
Haha thank you also! We definitely tried to stretch the word signal into different ways! Glad you liked it!
@tomssuli
Thank you enjoying my soundtrack!
I cant speak for the Kalevala hat, but my artist no doubt might have inspired by the great and mighty Finns as they are our neighbours to the east!
The gameplay I agree could become a little bit frustrating and there's a ton of little rules with the alien races that may not have been as well described as possible - such as the snails just lying, and snakemen always wanting fair-trade and plastic - even when they say the opposite. If we had more time, maybe we'd be able to get that across better and just ban them from asking the things that their ruleset overrid anyway.
Thanks for enjoying!
Haha yes, you figured them out!
Thank you kindly!
