The game is played with the mouse only. The theme was "Radiation", so we made our game about the sun!

There was a lot of charm to this game, I loved it! The little voice clips just added that extra something to the game, and the variety of them really helped too. The gameplay was pretty basic, and a little boring, which was a shame - just walking around, applying sunblock and occasionally dodging a seagull - but the powerups really did help and it was fun using the bouncy balls to actually help me get somewhere quicker - I think something more of that would've been a great addition to have. It was still enjoyable though, and I ended up earning $115 I believe - and nobody burned to a crisp either! The art was pretty good too and the music and sound effects were nice and atmospheric too, which all helped make it feel like I was actually there at the beach - I wish. A great little game all in all, so well done on making it!
Thank you so much for playing, means a lot since I especially loved your game, it was super impressive. I agree 100% on the gameplay, I definitely would have liked to do a bit more as it is a bit on the boring side. I'm a noob so still trying to figure it all out, lots to learn. :)
Aaa, that's a funny one. Turns out it's easier to just dodge those chip-loving pterodactyls than bait them, kept forgetting to chug my energy drinks as I was too busy lathering up customers to use them to throw up the inventory.
Cheers, bruv!

Interesting game, good polish. Had some issues with the player character sliding off the customers while applying sunscreen, but aside from that was an enjoyable experience.
Good job!
the sound effects alone, hilarious!!
I didn't think there would be another game about using sunscreen. I really loved the voicelines. I got an error after playing but it's still cool lol
