This is an awesome quirky game, stick to your creative guns and I guarantee everyone will love it. If you're more interested in watching than playing, check out my playthrough of it here:
I'm assuming the game isn't supposed to end if the monster catches you? I got stuck in the same area twice and had no idea how to get out. Not sure if I ran into a bug or the game isn't completely finished? Either way, I did really enjoy the parts of the game I was able to play. Nice job~
This game had a mix feeling of Night of The Consumers and Happy's Humble Burger Farm! I really enjoyed the chase mechanic and how you could only see glimpses of the monster itself. This game was funny and terrifying at the same time and it was definitely a rollercoaster of emotions! Keep up the great work, can't wait to see the full release!
Im not the best with scary/horror games so i couldn't play that much of the game, but the little bit i played was great, was able to run on my low-end pc, the controls were smooth too, keep up the great wor
Wicked game, was super fun to play and I tried to find some of the secrets in the map too! REALLY interesting game with alot of depth. I cant wait to see what you guys come up with in the future!
This game was an interesting experience. I LOVED the voice acting for the Boss. Cracked me up. Controls were easy to understand and, with a little exploring, tasks were easy to complete. My biggest question as of this point is what kind of tone this game is going for. I had an experience where the game felt too hilarious to be scared. If that's the tone you are going for (sort of a parody of horror games tone) then keep it up! If not, I'd recommend maybe thinking about dropping some ambient music and some sound effects. The silence could be unsettling at first, but the overall lack of any noise, even from the monster, did not manage to create a sense of urgency or fear. Thank you for the time and effort you took to create this game. Keep up the good work!
this games great its funny creepy and kind of mysterious its a really fun little game worth checking out. a couple parts were kind of confusing but I figured it out in the end. overall id say this games a 7/10 just because of some minor improvements they could make to the flow of the game. if you want to check out my full playthrough here it is.
if you checked it out I appreciate you and I hope you have a good day regardless.
So I played it and found the code and put it in at the garbage bins on the 2nd loop once it showed up and I also gave the guy at the garbage bins a banana and he said something but it disappeared before I could catch it. The bananas ended up on one of the pedestals in the secret underground area that opened up from entering the code but I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do for the second pedestal. There was also a floating stretchy red guy in the milk cooler area but I couldn't interact with him and couldn't stick around due to flashlight guy bugging me. I also trashed a blender. What else is there to do, I'm not sure if the game has anything else in it or if it being a demo means I found everything.
I figure dying for the store should make me employee of the month for at least the next year. Very spooky game with a store that I would never work in. Can't wait to see more of it!
I'm really impressed with this demo. It's abstract as hell, but surprisingly scary. Menial tasks offset by weird horrors is a solid formula, looking forward to the full release.
This game put me on one hell of a mental roller coaster. I didn't know if I should've been laughing, terrified, or confused, so I just ended up doing all 3. This was actually very fun, as stressful as it was, and provided a nice, fresh take on the "market task list" horror games that I've seen. I enjoyed this a lot! Great work!
Pretty fun game. Immerses you in the mundane tasks pretty quickly as tension starts to build around you. Lot of mysterious things going on, not a whole ton of explanation, but it's a demo, and being vague isn't always a bad thing.
Definitely had a convenience store-night of the consumers kind of gimmick to it, but I appreciated the sort of zaniness in this game, especially the boss, who by all accounts sounds like Kermit the Frog lol.
Giving EntertainmentSystems a follow for future releases, very good job here.
Hello, I played this game and I really enjoyed it, although I didn't understand the point of that extra room when you put the code in, but aside that it was a really fun game, looking forward to the full game, good work :)
atm we are taking a small break from development, seeing the feedback and taking it from there. We don't know if we are going to keep updating the Demo version until it is done, as in keep releases small updates. Or hold out until the end for one big release.
i AM SO INTERESTED IN THE JOB !!! i loved it and ill be having a video of it on my channel if you guys want to check it out later once i edited it ! i dont get spooked that easy i would think but this kinda got me and you could tell by my voice :D
It's definitely an interesting game. I was confused at times but kept wanting to know what was gonna happen next. I found an ending in there somewhere and then kept playing to see what else I could find. I'll definitely keep an eye out for the full version because this is pretty cool already. Thanks!
A really well made game, great potential, stands out from other potential 'night shift' or 'grocery type theme' horror game, looking forward to the full game
Thanks for playing, and great video you managed the capture *most* of the Demo had to offer. Prime example of some quality content. Sorry you couldn't find where to use the code .
I have been downloading every free game by far the best game here. Could be better scares but the suspense and questioning made up for it. The graphics amazing no glitches ran perfect loved the manager his voice was hillarios but he seems suupish....
Very much enjoyed it and I was hoping for the demo to continue on for longer. At first I wasn't really sure what I was getting myself into, so I enjoyed the build up of hearing weird noises and seeing strange things occur, until it got even stranger.

This game its like a horror B movie, fun and still has horror elements, the voice acting sounds really funny and I got jumpscared by the noise you make when you throw things. Amazing!
Hi there, I am DragonExplosion and I am a Youtuber. If you like my videos, please leave a like and subscribe at my channel.
I really liked the retro style of the game and the idea of a worker managing a last minute late shift in a supermarket. The gameplay was quite interesting and fun and the horror of the supermarket having a monster who is constantly around the supermarket keeps the player at their nerves.
However, I felt that more information could be given at some parts like the the location of the milk fridge as I actually spent 5 minutes running around the supermarket before I realised it was outside. It got kinda frustrating when I couldn't find it XD. Another thing was when the game "restarts". I had no idea that the monster was now actually visible and instant kills you so I basically just dashed around the supermarket, redoing tasks without knowing that I can actually die in the game. It would be good to inform the player that he actually got slapped by the monster and is dead so that the player knows that he is wandering around the afterlife to get back to the supermarket in the "RED ZONE". It would be good to make the "RED ZONE" less bright and irritating to the eyes as well.
The game was really interesting and fun and more improvements could be made to it to create a more comfortable and terrifying experience. More storyline and information being added would really help the player in navigating around the supermarket and getting scared by the monster.
Thank you for reading my comment and I wish you good luck in your future endeavours.
For the tasks we did struggle on how much information to give to the player. We Didn't want them so lost that they get frustrated and didn't know where to go, on the underhand we didn't want to make it so simple with something like way-points and insult the intelligence of the player. Striking the balance of information allowing the player to find stuff for themselves is hard to get right and it seems we still need a little more fine tuning to do.
Without giving away too much about the game, we have plans on indicating to the player when they have been *caught* and when they are in danger of losing to prevent player confusion.
And for the "RED ZONE" sorry bought that, that was me who made it so bright on the eyes (it used to be worse). I'll be sure to tone it down a bit. I think a good feature of a good game would be to not blind the player.
Thanks again for taking time to give feedback, we are taking all criticism on board for the full game.

Did you force the game into widescreen? how?
I’ve been learning how to do some video editing through some youtube tutorials. :D
Thank you for making this game :)

thanks for playing hope you enjoyed. I think you are the first to
the code room. It doesn't have a purpose yet but will in the future.Will there be updates in demo version?
atm we are taking a small break from development, seeing the feedback and taking it from there. We don't know if we are going to keep updating the Demo version until it is done, as in keep releases small updates. Or hold out until the end for one big release.
Any idea what you would want us to update?
Very clever, I really enjoyed the game. I will be patiently waiting for the full version to come out. :D
Also, will it be on steam? I'm down to wishlist it.
Eventually yes, but pre-release versions will likely be on here.
Wii release first
Amazing game. I loved the gameplay and retro visuals. Can't wait for the full version. Congrats and keep it up!

Can't believed I died to this
RIP
Great work my friend love the pixel art in this game makes it even more creepier Why does the boss sound like kermit the frog?
Thanks for playing our game. We hired a real frog to voice the manager.

Loved the demo, looking forward to playing the full game.
No problem. Thought it was great.
not a youtuber in sight...I will be back.
dont like youtubers?
the storm is coming.
I put two hours into THAT?
