Cash register & employees

Hello Managers! 👋


[h3]The brand new cash registers finally arrived! Therefore, we’re ready to introduce you to the new mechanic- customer service as a cashier. 👍[/h3]

From now on the players will not only be in charge of taking care of the shop but also point the clients towards the items they’re looking for, advise them (as we’ve mentioned in the previous devlog) and scan the products of their choice at the cash register.

[h3]Once the client chooses all the products they’re interested in, they’ll create a line near the cash register and wait to pay. Players will have to scan the products and receive the money, as well as give the change if needed. 💵[/h3]

As the time passes, the lines will get longer and clients will lose patience. In case they wait for too long, they’ll simply leave the items next to the cash register and leave without buying anything… This will generate mess and what’s even worse- lack of income! 🙍

[h3]As always, the bigger shop, the more clients it has and naturally the lines become bigger. It’s a promise of either, huge income or an even bigger mess at the cash register… This is where the employees come in handy! 🤩[/h3]

[h3]The workers will be able to take charge of the cash register and perform this task continuously without the interference of the shop owner. 🙂[/h3]

[h2]Players will be able to hire the workers from the very first day of the gameplay but keep in mind, they’ll generate expenses which can hinder your growth, everything has its price. 🤔[/h2]

On top of that, as we’ve explained in the previous devlog, there will be few different kinds of clients. We’d like to show you a little insight into the works on their animations- which proceeds smoothly! Below, you can see two different animations of a client who looks for something! As you can see, they are quite suggestive! 👏


That’s it for today! Don’t forget to join our discord 👇 and let us know your opinions and suggestions about the contents of the game! 🤩 If you haven’t already, add this game to your wishlists 👇 to not miss on any further update!

Customers

Players, welcome to our second devlog! 👋


[h3]This time, we’d like to introduce you to one of the most important mechanics in the Pet Shop Simulator- customer service. 😀[/h3]

But before we get to the main topic, we’d like to tell you that we’re constantly working on developing the building mode we introduced you to in the previous devlog!


We’re adding more and more objects to the game. We also gave you an ability to paint almost everything to with color available in the game and introduced warehouse management via tablet. 📱


[h2]Currently, the customers you’ll encounter in your shops can be separated into three different groups.[/h2]

[h3]Group 1- customers who know what they want[/h3]

This is the easiest group to work with. Those NPCs will look for a specific item. You can identify them by the dialog cloud over their head. 🔍

Your task is to approach and when they tell you what item they need, find and sell it to them- it’s that easy! 👍

[h3]Group 2- customers who want to find something[/h3]

This time around, you’ll have to show those NPCs the way to an appropriate shelf. If the item the client looks for is available in your store- you’ll sell it to them. If it’s not, well… you’ll have to pass the information and disappoint them which in result makes the client leave your store! 😢


[h3]Group 3- (our personal favorite) undecided customers[/h3]

During your encounters with those customers, your task will be the most demanding one- convincing them to purchase a certain item. You can identify such clients because of their behavior. Those NPCs will stand next to an item for a prolonged period of time. 🧍

To succeed, you’ll have to enter a conversation with the client and choose correct dialog options (A/B or C) to fill the “persuasion” bar over their head. 📝

The difficulty level will be different for those customers. Sometimes, you’ll quickly convince the client to put something into their shopping carts and sometimes it’s going to take more effort! 🤩

But be careful- if you don’t pay attention to NPCs’ reactions you risk making them irritated 😡 and if you keep pushing even make them leave your shop or lose interest in the mentioned item.

That brings us to an end of this devlog. Join our discord community 👇 and give us your thoughts on the clients mechanic! Don't forget to add our game to your wishlist 👇 to not miss on any further update!

Introduction

Hello Players! 👋


[h2]We are excited to welcome you to the first devlog in our new production- Pet Shop Simulator! 🥳🎉[/h2]

[h3]The devlogs are going to appear regularly 📅 and we are very happy to create it and share the progress with all of you! Therefore, we’d like to invite you to add the game to your wishlist 👇 to both follow and have an impact on the process of creating this game! 🤩[/h3]

[h3]If you want to have an easy way to interact with our dev team and make sure your suggestions and opinions are heard directly by them, we suggest joining our discord 👇 where you can interact with them as well as other members of the community❣️[/h3]



[h2]We plan the graphics to have a candy vibe 🍬 which is going to resonate with the cuteness of all the pets we plan to introduce to our game. 😍[/h2]



[h3]As for what you are going to be able to do besides the actual management of the shop… One of those things will be planning the shop layout. 📝 [/h3]

There will be multiple rooms waiting for you: the office, storage rooms, toilets, the shopping hall, the employees room and more! What’s even better, you’ll get to decide the size and position of the rooms!

[h3]The starting shop won’t be a big one but as you spend more time earning money 💰 you’ll have an opportunity to buy the neighboring stores to expand your business![/h3]

You’ll also get to increase the parking space in front of your shop to increase the amount of customers able to drive to your shop! 👷

[h3]Not only that! You’ll also be able to inspect the area around your Pet Store. We also plan to give you a full control of that area 🖌️ and possibility to add elements not only inside the store but in the close vicinity of the building which is the entire area belonging to the shop premises! 🏡[/h3]



[h3]Unfortunately, that brings us to the end of this short devlog but before you go we have a question for you! 🤔[/h3]

[h3]What animals would you like to see in the game? We can’t wait to hear your answers so let us know in the comments! 🤩[/h3]

See you soon,
