Capitalism, ho!

So my friend gifted me a copy of Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale last week and I've been all over my ass playing it. It involves you running an item shop with you in control of what to sell, when to sell, and how much to sell to your fellow customers and adventurers. You can also hire an adventurer to explore a dungeon with you for even more items! The main goal of the story is to get enough profit to pay off your missing father's humongous debt, but the story lasts much further than the debt payment.
There's a demo out on Steam which gives you the first week of the game, which is surprisingly long for a demo.
There's just something about it that makes me want to keep doing the same thing over and over. Maybe selling powerful armor and weapons to adventurers at cheap price so they can survive and give me room for more items to carry back. Maybe it's unfortunately-pieced dialogue that makes no sense when selling items in shop ("Women have come in great numbers, looking for clothes!"). Maybe it's because the characters are so damn... ahem, cute.
So yeah, the game's been keeping me busy. That and fighting a horde of ninjas using nothing but a spoon. I swear these ninjas won't leave me alone.
Drawing's been so slow... maybe I should try out RP or something? Let me know if you're interested.
