funky funny money... the rest is ok, the graphics/animations/skeleton/models could use some serious work... should be paying rent/tax (as annoying as that is)... needs some other TLC details as well...

As someone who has been in the retail industry, this game is very fun to me. I look forward to playing this when it comes out. Im really hoping that you can customize the store in the full version. Also would be nice to be able to have sales or a clearance area in the store. Pros: -The deliveries are in the back of the store and clearly marked -The store is customizable -The tutorial is easy to follow and detailed -The customers give feedback -Easy and fun checkout Cons/Would need looking at: >The buttons for getting the items or checking out seem to have a slight delay and need to be clicked multiple times to register. Sadly this made it unplayable for me. I could not check out a person because it could not get the clothes off the rack or give $1 bills. > It would be cool if there was a way to restock after hours, it could even be a little more expensive since its doing shipping at night

How do you open the damn store? I’ve done we everything I’m suppose to do in the right order. Followed all the instructions. I can’t get it to open!
