Yes, moving lights and the ability to change their color will appear in the prologue or full version of the game :)

Firs of all - thank you Games Incubator_Team for the nostalgi As a long time ago i have played in application called Club Life (it was in VK). With the same idea.

What will be good to see in the future:
- More default music. Cause till you are able to invite DJ's the only track is playing and i switched it off after the second night)
- DJ's animations, as they are just standing on the stage.
- Possibility to hire more Bouncers as when your club become more popular there are big lines near the doors and even not all visitors can be invited before night is ending.
- Integration with the friend lists. As for example - you can hire your friends from the list to the job positions) Or just to see that they are visiting your club.
- Hiring more professional employees. For example with much more faster solving the cleaning\troubles or faster providiing service in the club.

This demo was really cool. Few things I would recommend/review from what I've seen so far:

- Can we get some sort of visual on what is lowering and raising the reputation? I have no idea what I'm doing wrong/right. Kinda just winging it. Maybe a request queue like in Two Point Hospital.
- Bathroom repairs were overlapping for me. So it took some time for me to repair a stall if I already had a repair going because the notification was blocking it.
- Maybe their can also be client booked VIP events that help give the club a boost for the night (birthdays, celebrities, etc.)
- I kept noticing the clients walking into the staff stations, and then the staff getting stuck inside their own station...?
- A more detailed End of Night report. Client totals didn't seem to make much sense.
- Definitely adding DJ animations. They were so stoic, it was awkward seeing them up there.

Interesting ideas! Thanks. :)

These are some ideas and suggestions, and some may be more of a bug than a suggestion. I appreciate the game is a work in progress and you probably know about a lot of this already.

- As others mentioned, the ability to know whats affecting reputation, at the moment I can't see that I am doing anything wrong and its purely down to luck whether I end the night with good or bad reputation. I have a well furnished club with plenty of bars and toilets, and quickly resolve any guest issues, but I still end up losing 30 reputation points at the end of the night, the next night I might gain 20 reputation points and have done nothing different. Maybe individual guests can have points that say why they are happy/unhappy. Maybe there could be indicators above the guests if they are unhappy, to save having to click through everyone.

- A log for each guest that lists what activities they have done, i.e. bought a drink, danced, went to bathroom etc.

- Ability to set the price of entry and the price of drinks, which would affect reputation too

- The sleeping guests are very much awake

- The DJ booth needs fixing, again I appreciate this game is just a demo at the moment but it hurts my eyes to look at the DJ booth. It has a single CDJ and mixer, both facing sideways, the booth monitors face out the wrong direction, and there are moving head lights under the DJ table, which is a very curious place to put them. Honestly it looks like it was built by someone who has never seen a DJ set up in their life. Its just uncomfortable to look at and would be very easy to fix.

- Just to add to that point.. will the final product have different levels and upgrades of DJ booths? it would be nice to be able to upgrade the CDJs and speaker stacks etc.

- Being able to fast forward through the night, i.e. 2x speed, 3x speed etc.

- At the moment I cannot see anyway to delete doors, I have to remove the whole wall section

- Staff-only doors would be cool

- When editing queues, it seems the only way to exit out of this mode is by pressing esc, there is no on screen method.

- If I have 3 bar stations, all with queue lines placed, guests will sometimes form a long queue on one station when there are 2 more stations with no queue at all.

- Maybe have a very basic drink ordering system to replenish the bars, and if you don't order enough drinks in for the night then you sell out and lose money/reputation.

- Toilets need more furniture, urinals and sinks.

- Toilets should have separate male/female rooms. Maybe a zoning option where we can set what a room is used for.

- Lighting. In the final product it would be nice to have a selection of realistic lighting options to choose from, moving head spots and washes, lasers, strobes, sunstrips, Co2 cannons etc. As well as ambient and traditional lighting too, maybe some neon signs etc. Truss and podiums to mount the lights would be amazing, and maybe lights could also be mounted to the ceiling, and I know its a big ask but LED screens would be awesome.

- The attribute icons for guests are not very clear, for example, 'gets tired quickly' is represented with a energy icon and a plus symbol, this doesn't really make sense, I think something like a yawning icon would be more accurate.

- VIP areas, which guests have to pay extra to get in

- Maybe renaming some of the staff. I get why you need a bodyguard separate to the bouncers, as the bouncers are for the doors and the bodyguards are dealing with troublesome guests, but these don't seem like the best names for them. Maybe the bouncers can be renamed to 'door staff' and the bodyguard renamed to 'bouncer' or just security. Bodyguard just isn't the right work for them

- Is it worth having a cut off time where guests can no longer come in? I feel that would be more realistic. At the moment some guests come in at 5:45am and stay for 15 mins before the night ends. Maybe something like last entry 2am, and then part of the challenge is making the club appealing enough to keep the guests inside until 6am

- I feel there is too much focus on the guests avatars, this could be a lot more discreet, especially as it never actual matches what the guest looks like in game.

I do work in the industry, which is why I was drawn to this game in the first place, and if you did need any guidance or feedback to push it in a realistic direction I am happy to help. I work as a lighting technician so have plenty of knowledge on club lighting.
I think this game has heaps of potential if its done right, and if you can address the above points, or at least most of them, I will definitely be buying it when its released.

One Song ever and ever , Signs from Guests not removed after day 1 is over ! Day 2 Not started! No movin Light , no DJ ! Bad Demo in moment! Place Items ist still ok and easy to handle! For a Demo is it really not much ! We wait :D

[webbiewebs3]

Fun little simulator. Most things work as they should. Suggestions for improvement:

- More names for Guests and your staff
- Improved pathing movement
- Doors don't always open/shut as they should
- Ability to select many more colors of all placement items (lights, walls, floors, restroom stalls, etc.)
- Skill improvement for employees. Bartenders serve quicker, doormen check in people faster, bouncers resolve issues faster, cleaners clean faster, etc.
- More music

I didn't always understand exactly why my guests were unhappy. I know they have meters that measure certain things, but when nobody is waiting for a drink and they are unhappy about drinking, they don't go get one? There needs to be some improved logic here so that the club owners can figure out what their customers want and then figure out how to provide that to them.

Thank you for your suggestions and feedback. :)

Text is too small. There are acres of unused space where larger text could fit.

Agreed. My clients wait till they have an emergency bathroom run which ruins my club.

Need more info why my club was -62 and the next night -92. At the end of my day I seemed to make money even though hardly anyone liked my club. When we are free during the day, Id like to know what I need to fix to not be negative or improve

[Mike]

Will we be able to place bars, like extrnding the bar table or make a custom one that snakes in the area with bar stools?

Will we be able to place a kitchen? My clients seem to hate my club :(

I think it might be related to not setting queues to bars and toilets. Try setting the queues and check if the club reputation will start to raise (if the customers are happy).

As for the bars with bar stools, we'll think about it. ^^
As for the kitchen, I'm not sure if I understand. You can place bars wherever you want, and they take care of the customers that need a drink. If you have something else in mind, could you describe it a bit better? :)
