  The Bosta Bar is a stealth/persuation game created in 3 days by the Faceleste Studio for the Melon Jam 2023 with the theme "Charm". In the game, you follow a pair of thieves that, by distracting their victims, perform burglaries inside a bar.

⬇️  -CONTROLS-  ⬇️

  • A - move to the left
  • D - move to the right
  • F - stealing (Hold it until the message pops up! We found a bug where the progress bar becomes invisible)
  • E - change character

⬇️  -MECHANICS -   ⬇️

From time to time the victim will look back, noticing Donny's strange and imposing presence, he'll look more often if your sus-o-meter is too high.

Paul can use his charm to talk to the victim, choosing the best option will make the sus-o-meter go down, making it safer for Donny to steal.

When approaching a pillar or a table, Donny will automatically hide behind the object, the victim won't be able to see him.

The symbol of ! means the victim is about to look back, wait for the ! to disappear before leaving the hiding spot.

Donny needs to hold the "F" button near the victim for 3 seconds in order to steal what they have, then go back to the entrance. (As mentioned before, we found a bug where the button disappears after the first 2 seconds, but continue holding until the dialogue shows up).


                                                                               FINAL NOTE:

The game was made in 72 hours to the MelonJam. There were some ideas that we've had that were not present in the final project due to the lack of time. We've seen a lot of potential in the idea. That, and the people that enjoyed our game makes us consider the idea of working on more updates, and, maybe, releasing a more ambitious version of The Bosta Bar. (name yet to be confirmed)

The game has a small interface BUG where, when Donny steals the Artist, the theft UI disappears. You have to keep pressing and holding, even after the UI disappears. It takes 3 seconds. Good Game (:
