About the Game
Be Your Own Boss!
You rented a small shop with the last money in your pocket. Now it's time to show off your art and rewrite the rules of this town!
Listen to customer requests, choose the right design, and get to work. Earn money by providing tattoo and piercing services, but be careful; every mistake lowers customer satisfaction. Use different levels of tattoo machines, manage ink stocks, and keep your equipment in working order at all times.
Don't settle for just a tattoo shop! Use your earnings to buy cafes, pizzerias, and hotels in the city to generate passive income. Create extra revenue streams by acquiring hotdog and ice cream selling licenses. Roam freely with your motorcycle and explore the city.
Track every detail of your business. Manage your inventory, monitor your shop's popularity and cleanliness. As your business grows, hire employees who each possess different skills. Maintain your financial balance through the banking app and keep your shop safe from bankruptcy.
The city's thugs are not open to change, so they might scare away your customers. Grab your bat and defend your shop! Stop these thugs from damaging your business.
The city isn't always quiet and sunny. Changing weather conditions and city events can impact your entire business. Letters from the municipality can change your fate. Always be prepared for events happening in the city.
Return to the comfort of your home after a busy day. Leave the stress of work behind, take care of your pets, and make time for yourself. Find balance in your life within the day and night cycle.

Skill Tree Update
Skill tree: dot-based progress indicators, unlock status shown.
The progress count (e.g. 1/3) is shown above the dots.
The notification when you spend a point now tells you the skill isn't unlocked yet.
Unlocked skills no longer show the progress indicator and stand out in orange.
The skill info card is larger, so descriptions are easier to read.
Tattooing VFX Update
Tattooing: blue stencil effect, machine-specific needles effects, ink splatter/stain feedback.
General
City: time-of-day crowd density (quiet at night, busy 10 AM–5 PM), seamless NPC changes. After midnight the crowds thin out further, and the city is at its quietest between 2 and 5 AM.

Longer days
In-game time now passes 25% slower. A full shop day (Shift 9 AM – 9 PM) now lasts about 16 minutes instead of 12, giving you more time to serve customers and manage your shop.
Piercing
Two-ring piercing: the rings spin about 30% slower, piercings finish about 30% faster, mistakes cost less progress, and just touching the edge of a red zone no longer counts as a mistake.
Single-ring piercing: the smallest target zones are slightly larger. The piercing tutorial now uses a simpler layout made just for it.
Tattooing
Stencil Trace Game: stencils shrink more slowly, and on mouse & keyboard they speed up less after each successful click.
Tattoo Drawing Game: the time limit is doubled (15 → 30 seconds).
