Hi Disgruntler, i'm new here. Just found out about the game last week and honestly i love it. So far that's my favorite game in this category
I feel like i'm playing a erotic version of the Cabaret from the Yakuza games. And actually i was trying to remake one in Unreal for the fun of it with some sexy elements.
And your game is really great and giving me the same feeling of challenge and wanting to play more to unlock more. The only thing that i would think would make it more enjoyable (especially at the end) is to maybe hired like a manager or something and maybe up to 6 (one for each booth) to automatizing the process and make the game more enjoyable. Cause when you have 6 booth you spend more time clicking everywhere than enjoying the videos...
But honestly great job, keep going!!! I'm a fan!!!
Thanks for your feedback. Most of what you're playing is a game design by Tobe who deserves the bulk of the credit. I'm just the dumbass who took it over.
I apologize in advance but I have no plans to automate the booth game. If anything, I've been veering towards complicating it, and including mechanics that change up how one plays the booth game.
That said, over time I've worked on a keyboard control scheme for placing girls. Using tab, or the number keys to select a girl, and QWEASD to select a booth does free up some mental space. As well, I've worked on making it more visible when a client requires attention. I haven't worked out the details on how to keyboard command-assign drinks/cigarettes early game or finishers mid/late game yet, but that is next on my radar, as to enable a more relaxed keyboard-style play if one wants it.
One thing you can do if you want to play lazy, is set up specialized booths according to specific girls, and then it becomes very easy to just hit qweasd when that booth comes up, and plan which girl goes in which booth. It's not optimal for money gain, but fuck it. (In fact, it used to be how I'd always play until I made Random booths profitable, which has encouraged me out of dedicating booths and forcing me into having to work around the clients' needs) I pretty much do all my testing and play with the keyboard shortcuts now, they've really opened up my focus and let me 'enjoy the show' so to speak. Zoom 2.0 really helps with that as well.
Another thing I can offer, if the game is getting a bit hectic, hit Z or P, and this will pause the timer while you can still make moves. Then you can take your time, focus on a video, do whatever you like.
