A downloadable game for Windows and macOS

Run around the grocery store and pick up the requested items from the shopping list.

WASD to move, E to pickup/ interact, Q to drop.

The timer starts when the first customer reaches the checkout, and their grocery list will appear.  You can use the mouse scroll to see additional items, if they are asking for more than 5.  The order you gather items does not matter, and each item in the list has a red tag indicating where it is at in the store. (F for floral, P for produce, B for bakery, M for meat)

The player can carry 5 stacks of items at a time, and they can be the same stack.  (e.g. a stack of 6 apples and a stack of 2 apples).

When your inventory is full, or you've gathered the requested items, run to the conveyor belt and press Q to drop the items on the belt, and they will get scanned at the register.  Once all items have been gathered, interact (E) with the computer screen at the checkout to complete the transaction.  If you don't want to do the current list, you can interact with the router/modem sitting on the checkout counter to skip to the next customer.  You will not gain any time from doing so.

The player gains 2 second for every correct item scanned, and loses .5 of a second for each incorrect item.  Those bonuses/penalties increase as the player scans more items.  Upon successful completion of the transaction, the player gains one second for each of the items scanned for that transaction.

The game is over when the timer reaches 0.
