Coffee Rogue

Take charge of a cozy coffee shop. You will need to cook, clean and socialize with your patrons. The place is a bit messy to begin with, but you can reorganize and optimize the flow of customers. Everything is movable, make the place your own! Once you earn some money, you can use the computer to order more furniture and appliances.

Your customers will give you a review when leaving. Make sure to keep them happy to avoid your rating dropping to zero.

All art, music and programming for this game was made by me in 7 days for the 7 day roguelike challenge 2023. I've tried to focus on the elements of roguelikes I enjoy the most - rich systems, interactive simulations and a strategic gameplay - while exploring another setting and player motivation than the traditional dungeon crawl. The layout of the cafe is randomized each time, and the customers have various random attributes, so that the game is different each time you play it. I hope you enjoy the game, please let me know if you have any questions or comments!

Thanks to Markus for invaluable feedback and encouragement during the week, and to Emily for being the best <3

Video of your game here:

Thanks a lot for playing my game :)
It looks like the video it's marked as private, so I can't access it unfortunately.

I'm looking forward to watching the video when it's available! Seeing someone react to a game you've made is very helpful so I really appreciate it. It helps me figure out what to do differently next time.

I got the dates wrong. Video should be up now.

No worries! Thanks again for the video. It was great seeing you play the game. You made some good points regarding the controls and it's very useful to know which parts of the game could be improved. Thanks for taking the time to play the game :)

This is such a cute game, very confusing at first but once you get a hang of it it's quite addictive, love the small conversation with the costumers and it's quite annoying how the customers complain about the banana peel/empty bottle that they ate/used, like it's literally theirs and if they feel so bothered about it, they can throw it to the bin themselves jkjk. But honestly though, they should give me more turns instead of complaining right away and giving me a bad review. I love how the structure of the cafe also changes everytime you restart it, the whole game is very interactive, I'd definitely play this offline if I can download it :>

Thank you for the kind comment! I'm glad you liked the game :)
Your point about the customers complaining about their own trash is spot on. I should probably fix that, haha XD. Sorry for the confusing controls and intro by the way, thanks for sticking with it.
