STAR BAR

For the greatest possible benefit from reading this description, please start this video first, then resume reading:

Do you like drinking? Perhaps karaoke? Maybe you want to start a band and go from gig to gig brilliantly displaying your sovereign talent with the electric accordion.

You can do all of those things in a real bar, but you can't necessarily run the bar itself. Welcome to Star Bar, where you can do such wonderful tasks as firing helpless employees, buying truckloads of industrial-grade bio paste for your bar menu specials, bribing health inspectors, charging a 250% markup for "top shelf" moonshine, and more - - - all without even going through the trouble of investing hundreds of thousands of dollars in an actual, real life, brick-and-mortar establishment.

AND THAT'S NOT ALL! Star Bar is intended for multiple players, so you're actually competing against other human beings to have the best bar in town! While they're hastily scrambling to replace that last batch of salted Urubu wings they just sold because "whoops, Bubba forgot to place the order," you can "arrange" for a union official to show up and turn your competitor's employees against him! While you're lounging on your bar stool, sipping on a nice glass of smooth Jenny VZ Reserve, you can snicker gleefully as chaos engulfs your opponents - the result of your clever machinations!

THE SPECS:

• Players: 1-4 (multiplayer recommended)
• Tutorial: Yes!
• Fun: Probably
• How to win (multiplayer): Be the last player to have a surviving bar
• How to win (single player): Can't yet... single-player is sandbox mode for now (under construction)
• Stuff and things: If your rating drops to 0, the Dominion begins sending demolition squads. This is bad. Focus on keeping your rating up. If you run out of money (minerals), this becomes very difficult, so you will have to balance improving your rating with earning money in order to survive.

So what are you waiting for? Stop reading this description. Right now. Go and play Star Bar, then leave a comment showing your support for this map! Constructive criticism is also welcome, of course!
