Build your fortune on the misfortune of wayward heroes! You play as the shopkeeper outside of a local dungeon. Equip heroes efficiently so they can make it out of the dungeon with more loot (for you to buy), or swindle your way to riches by taking advantage of your customer's interests! A good business-person employs a good mix of both.

Press    to open the Shop Menu

 = Attack/Damage:   Base damage dealt
 = Defense:   Reduces damage received

= Dexterity:   Scales Hero damage by (Hero Dex / Room Dex)

Equipped items are highlighted in green in the hero's inventory. Click BUY to purchase items from the customer, and SELL to sell items to the customer.

Heroes can only equip 5 items at a time, any extras will not add to their stats.

The progress bar at the top represents the dungeon. When you're done with a customer press "End Transaction", and the Hero will go into the dungeon.  If a Hero is already in the dungeon, new ones will queue up and wait for the first one to be done. When a Hero dies in the dungeon, they will respawn back in line. When all the rooms in the dungeon have been defeated, the day will roll over with a new (harder) dungeon.

Hover over the icons in the dungeon to compare stats between the dungeon room and the hero that is in that room (if there is one). The stats will be calculated and updated after every round (10 seconds).

Each hero only has three lives. When they run out, they die, losing all of the items they had on them. But don't worry, there are new customers abound where there's adventure to be found!

Needs a full screen toggle please. Some is cut off as is.

Perhaps you missed the inventory button which raises the menu up? Regardless a future full screen option would be nice. We also should have spent more time on more obvious controls and UI design. Lots of lessons learned for future updates + other game. Thanks for the feedback :)
