💔 KNOWN BUG S 💔

- If you can't seem to interact with objects, make sure you're pressing the correct direction (press arrow keys first) before pressing [Z]. 

- If you can't seem to clean up a table,
 try pressing [Z] from the bottom right side of the table.

- There is a very inconsistent body double glitch where sometimes two protagonist sprites show up rather than one at the very end of one of the endings. If this ocrrus, please ignore.

in the middle of my first playthrough rn! i noticed a bug of sorts when im back at the apartment after a shift, i opened the fridge, closed it and then my sprite was gone? couldnt move around or interact with anything but the wardrobe :< not sure what happened there

(-1)

WHY VINCENT IS SO FINE /CRY,anyways,I like the game but poor man Rody gets insulted every 2 seconds,I would love a good ending that isn't "dinner for one",but after knowing Manon I think its the best choice for him 

also I wish I could play this instead of just watching others but on MAC it just either crashes immediately upon opening the game or has an error message when I try to play the tutorial 👍

(+1)

Gotta love toxic yaoi

I love the game but it keeps having errors. I'm on mac and whenever I try to move on to the next day, it goes black. I already deleted it and reinstalled it but nothing works. Can anyone help?

try to move on to the next day again but make the window of the game minimized

It's not working. I deleted the game, reinstalled it and began a new game, yet it still doesn't work.

best game i got addicted and hooked for days i played it so much i didnt notice i finished all 4 endings lol i also found a way to change rody/main protagonist its sprite and animations to my own liking which was very cool. reply to this if u wanna see it

Can I see?

go to r/deadplate i posted the video there

alright!

my user is u/animosity_27 on reddit if u cant see the post

I LOVE THIS GAME SM!!! one issue however, when customers finish their order, their sprite just kind of stands and waits at the table, and i'm unable to pick up their check, even if i go behind the register :( love this game but its so hard to when theres a lot of bugs like that + not being able to continue off a save file, hope this game gets fixed in the future</3 would love to see the progress

PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME WHAT IS THE CLOCK IN THE CORNER AND WHATS A MINUTE MARK PLEASE

Hey if you don't make the two twunks kiss I'm calling this game homophobic

I have a reputable game journal, I work at Mr. Salvia's Game Emporium, you may have heard of it on the 3:00 am news network. If you need help, I have a plethora of anime artists to hire for that. 

WOWOWOOWOWO I finished to play the game today and I LOVED IT aaaaaa I loved it so much!! the art is super cool and the vibe 🫶🫶 immaculate. i loved every single moment of it. it's insane thinking this is available for free!!! amazing job🫶🫶

(SPOILER WARNING SPOILER WARNING) I love this game...I managed to figure out all the endings myself, there was only one time the screen got stuck on a Vincent slide after I asked "why her?", the sounds would keep changing as I press Z but the art wouldn't change. That problem resolved itself when I reopened the game. Amazing work....Studio investigate is my inspiration. I love you all

proud vincent simp lmao 

The only thing I'm simping is the prices at https://neongrizzly.com/collections/internet-comment-etiquette

Really enjoyed this game :D Story and gameplay really hooked me!
Will there ever be more of it?

I played this game like a long time ago (when it was newly released) but didn't have an account at that time so I CAME BACK TO JUST SAY THAT I LOVE THIS GAME SM!! IT'S DEF ONE OF MY TOP FAVES IN VISUAL NOVELS

Heyyyy, I tried playing but I couldn't get past the tutorial bc I couldn't interact with things and if I could I had to press it like 20+ times. would love to play the game tho.

Plz do fix i wanna play so badly

(+3)

But i'm begging for a gay ending! Hahaha!

Yeah, well I'm begging for my Saltburn ending, you know, I want him to lick the cum drain and fuck a girl while she's on her period

this game is really good i loved it sm !!

this game should cost money it's literally so cool

(+4)

The game is awesome but.. Where's the gay ending ??? 

Gay ending? Kid, if you were a real one, you know we don't get endings, 'specially happy ones 

Finally got around to playing this game and I LOVED IT! The story was rlly good and it left me speechless at the end! RLLY OBESSESED WITH IT RN! Great Job! Def checking out your other games!

(+1)

there's a bug on day 6 I think. I can't get the customers to pay at the end and have to keep playing it again and again

This game (...& the pairing of the two protags) goes fuckin wild in my country's video website and I came to see what's going on...gonna play this once I get home and get my laptop qq

I downloaded it and encountered a bug that wouldn't let me do much of anything but I love the game so much :( 

Now this is a restaurant I would go to.

rody looks like he should be on one of those drake memes "drake the typa guy to" with the most ridiculous bullshit ever. i adore him. also theres a little typo on day 5 i think? but its really tiny


Yeah, in the original we had it so he said, "Once your shift's over, all these dishes better be licked slow and carefully while I watch, yeah, yeah that's it, holy shit, do it more, yeah, just like that. Why don't you lick me clean~? Ahh, ahh, DaDdY HARDER HARDER HARDER, I'M CLOSE, woah, that felt amazing." We had to get change that because the dev's post-nut clarity said that it was too vanilla.

Rody will actually forever be my favorite character of all time. I love this game so much and I've replayed it over and over again.

(1 edit) (+2)

I love this so goddamn much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I enjoyed the MUSIC, the ART, even the gameplay a little when I got how everything works.  The chase scene was stunning ;)))))) kinda made me be grateful for having a sense of taste😭

there was a noise coming from the freezer, what do i do?

(+10)

hear me out.... WE NEED A GAY ENDING LIKE PLEASEE ToT


First and foremost I kinda struggled abit at first since I was not yet familiar with the game but when I did all is good.

I love how we have to do certain puzzles, like talking to Vince during different shifts, and I also absolutely love the art style! The music!! The thrill! Especially when Vince was chasing us I'm a person that easily gets excited when while that was happening I was like, "BRO NOT LET ME LIVE"- "RUN FASTER." -"THIS GOOFY ASS MAN!"

Also the LOREEEEEE, THE LORE IS LITERALLY WHAT KEPT ME ON MY TOES!!! I got so hooked to this game that I was literally lore dumping on a friend of mine, LIKE WHO WOULD'VE EXPECTED THAT? this game is really fun (for me) I hope to see more games from you guys (I've already played Elevator Hitch, currently downloading the other two) keep up the good work!!!:D

I agree, I have the creator's parents hostage, I'm writing this exact demand up right now, I'll update you if he agrees to it.

This seems like a really great game, but unfortuantely it's almost unplayable.. I barely got through day one. I have to mash the button many times before the option to interact with something will actually come up, and you have to be very finnecky about what tile the character is on or else it just won't work. This makes it almost impossible to play without getting all of the guests to leave early. Additionally, when I got to the Day 2 equip screen, no matter what button I pressed, I couldn't get the game to progress. 

i had the same problem with the buttons and it gets better on the following days, just the first day that i think is a little bugged. as for the equip screen, you have to click on the door with your mouse, close to that letter thingy and then it'll work :D

Deleted 2 days ago

when I opened up the file it said "Game.exe" and "Game.exe.exe" (Im on PC btw) its confusing me..-

Use file with colorfull icon x)

i think i found a bug. at day 6 i cant seem to use the register, so everyone walks away angry because i wouldnt let them pay (i'm trying)

The bug is capitalism comrade

(-3)

Ive seen other people play it and i am willing too. The HUGE problem is that i cant download this game in my Android phone>:( wish for this gane to be available on android

(-1)

you can play it through joiplay! there are tutorials on yt on how to launch it

(-4)

sometimes I wished I COULD PLAY THIS ON MY GODDAMN SHITTY OPPO PHONE BECAUSE MY GODDAMN LAPTOP HAD A STROKE WHILE DOWNLOADING THE GAME FILE AND IT DIDN'T WORK 

I had this exact problem, I solved it by flirting with this really hot hunk, then murdering him and his entire family while doing weird shit like sucking on drains and fucking the ground

(+1)

Jesus Christ, I don't even blame you for it fuck the itch.io devs and the fat radish gormless mingers who make cute lovely eye popping life supporting soul crushing unhinging shit games only available on emiles fatass bitch xenoverse sized macbook
