Hello again, Toy Merchants! đ
Weâre thrilled to present our second devlog, and this time itâs all about the lifeblood of your toy shop: the customers. From playful children to meticulous shoppers, weâve added new layers of interaction and personality to make your store feel more alive than ever before. Letâs dive into whatâs new and improved![h2]New Customer Models â Welcome the Little Shoppers![/h2]Weâve introduced a variety of new customer models, including children who now eagerly browse your shelves for the perfect toy. Watch as they light up with excitement while exploring your shop, or pout when they canât get their favorite toy. These little shoppers bring a lively and heartwarming touch to the store.

Queue Up â The Storefront Experience[/h2]
Customers now queue outside your shop when itâs closed, eagerly waiting for the doors to open. Whether itâs the rush of a sale or the allure of a beautifully decorated store, theyâll be ready to storm in once you open for business.

Reactive Shoppers â Actions Speak Louder[/h2]
Customers have become more reactive than ever before, responding to various in-store events:
- Price Changes: Customers will cheer for discounts or grumble if prices spike.
- Wrong Change: Accidentally shortchange someone? Expect frustration!
- Shelf Interactions: Removing a product while theyâre browsing? Theyâll definitely let you know how they feel.
- Mop Mishaps: Annoy customers with excessive mopping, and they might just walk out.
- End-of-Day Tantrums: At closing time, customers now throw their toys on the floor as they leave.

Dynamic Reactions and Dialogues[/h2]
Customers comment while picking products off the shelves, sharing thoughts like, â
This would be perfect for my kid!â They even react to sabotage events and engage in daily small talk, making every interaction feel unique and immersive.

Improved Animations â More Expressive and Fun[/h2]
Weâve polished customer animations to make their actions more fluid and entertaining. For example, if you toss a box at a shopperâs head (oops!), theyâll stumble and react accordingly. These little details add humor and charm to your shopâs bustling environment.
[h2]Customer Morale â Keep Them Happy![/h2]Each customer now has a morale meter that reflects their shopping experience. Hereâs how it works:
Positive Influences: Beautiful decorations and a clean shop boost morale.
Negative Influences: Long queues, dirty floors, or not finding what theyâre looking for will lower morale.
Keeping customers happy is key to building a loyal clientele and ensuring your toy shop becomes the neighborhoodâs favorite destination.
[h3]Thatâs all for this devlog, Toy Merchants! Weâre excited for you to experience these updates and bring your store to life. Stay tuned for more updates, and as always, happy selling![/h3]

[h2]THANK YOU [/h2]
