The staff at the GREAT ELECTRONICS store has a new strategy to make more profit: mobilize all associates on one customer and never stop pushing for the extended warranty!

Can you defeat the sales people and leave with your laptop without extra charge?


Inspired by my experience as a salesman at an undisclosed electronics store, I present to you "The Tale of the Extended Warranty". Fight 3 waves of associates as well as 3 bosses in this retro twin-stick shooter inspired by Smash TV and Robotron. I am currently working on a commercial version. Stay tune!

This is the winner of the Juice Jam!!


Controls

The game is compatible with a gamepad. For keyboard, you can also use IJKL to shoot instead of the arrows.

Cool mechanic! You could add new stage at another store too in the future (maybe like cellphone and grocery store), it's fun with what it is now though..

Thanks for playing!
I'm currently working on a bigger version of this with a store that is not only 1 screen and you can walk around fighting waves of sales people!

Maybe you can try to make an Endless/Zombie mode?

That's a neat idea! I'm currently brainstorming on ideas to scale the game to multiple levels and different modes. I like this, it gives me ideas :)

Really fun boss rush. The only downside is that the special is not really that good in boss fights. Otherwise great game.

Thank you for playing!
Indeed, I didn't want to make it too powerful but I could rework what it does during the boss fights. I'll brainstorm on this. Thanks for the feedback!
