Just a cute little salon simulator game (DEMO) I created to greet my mother on her birthday!

_____________________________________________________________

Try your hand at running your own salon with AA Studio’s retro-style HairPIN Salon Simulator! Play as the Philippines’ leading hairstylist Pin Antonio. 

“Stylist of the Stars” Pin Antonio first developed an eye for the art of hairdressing in 1983. At that time, her sister was running a humble salon out of their small apartment, and what started out as a small family business turned into one of the leading salons in the industry! With her heart set on mastering the craft, Pin has gone through rigorous training over the years, taking courses abroad, entering contests and exhibits, then sharing her knowledge with her salon staff back home. Pin established a brand built not only on chic, fashionable hairdos, but on the pursuit of excellence and creativity. Currently, Pin Antonio is based in California where she has opened a new salon and continues to practice the art of making her clients feel confident and beautiful! 

With HairPIN Salon Simulator, spend the day in Pin Antonio’s shoes. Manage your own salon, work with clients, and spread beauty and joy all through the gift of a good haircut!

Wow! I'm having fun with this. Really well done! I love the character busts, it adds so much life to the cutscenes. The main hero with the cake looked like ihpone avatar :D Anyway, good idea and really neat implemented. I love that we can cut too much of the hair :D but honestly was a bit confused what to use first and so on (tool I mean) ^^'

Hello Fizzlymike! Thank you for your feed back! The version you played is actually a birthday greeting for my mom. Which is why I used iPhone avatar references as the cutscenes. I still had to create them in aseprite pixel creator though but good eye! You knew it was iPhone Avatar reference. Anyways, glad you enjoyed the Demo. I might make a more official demo and eventually create the full game for sale next time. But for now, that would be it. And yes, the steps for the haircut is meant to be confusing like a puzzle because in a real haircut there are steps! :) I tried to make it as realistic as possible because my mom is a professional hairdresser. :)

With the references to your mom and her job, it's even cuter! That's wonderful, I swear! ❤
