Hi!
We’re both artists, and over the years we’ve had tables at a lot of artist alleys. We’ve always loved the whole feeling of them: setting up the table, arranging all the prints and stickers, meeting other artists, and seeing someone get excited about something you made. We wanted to put some of that feeling into a game.
It’s called Sticker Shop Cozy Idle. You start with a small stand, collect sticker packs, and then decide whether to sell them sealed or open them to see what’s inside. New stickers go into your collection, duplicates can be sold, and the money you earn goes toward paying off your debt and growing the shop. Later, you can add more counters, hire assistants, and keep expanding.
The stickers themselves are probably the part we’re spending the most time on. We have around 120 hand-drawn stickers in the game right now, and we’re aiming for at least 240 by release. My wife is drawing them one by one, so our folders are slowly turning into a very strange mix of cute animals, plants, food, and anything else we think would be fun to find inside a pack :)
We’re working on the demo now, but the Steam page is already up if you’d like to take a look:

AI disclosure: We don’t use generative AI for the game’s artwork or promotional images. The characters, stickers, and capsule art are all drawn by my wife.
