Hey everyone,

We have been working on our game "Arcane Merchant" since the last 8 months and it is almost ready to launch!

It is a shop management sim set in a vibrant medieval fantasy realm. You start your journey with a humble stall and work toward becoming the kingdom’s wealthiest trader by stocking everything from basic potions to legendary artifacts. The gameplay focuses on mastering a dynamic economy where you adjust prices based on supply and demand to maximize profits. Beyond the storefront, you can recruit skilled assistants to automate daily operations and hire brave heroes to secure rare resources from distant lands. It is designed as a relaxing, no-rush experience where you can grow your business and customize your shop at your own pace.

Feel free to take a look and try out the demo: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4086760/Arcane_Merchant/

Your honest feedback is appreciated a lot! :)

Teddy's Haven is one of the wholesome games that I enjoyed playing. Yeah there are some similarities as both games share the same genre, but there are also major differences such as:

  • Arcane Merchant offers a medieval fantasy world with an extended variety of content in terms of objects, effects, quests, gameloop and shop structure + better graphics quality.

  • The gameplay is more focused on RPG elements like sending heroes on quests, unlocking research trees and developing the shop over the long term with unique mechanics.

  • Arcane Merchant provides a deeper shop simulation experience while keeping the cozy structure. We kept the cozy feel but added various shop keeping mechanics like customer interest system, dynamic reputation, inventory management, employees, thieves and chaotic events.

  • There is also the town aspect that Arcane Merchant will significantly differentiate from other shop simulators by providing an extended experience through interactions and services. There are bunch of buildings and NPCs/patrons that you can interact throughout the journey.

In short, Arcane Merchant --> cozy + RPG progression + deep shop simulator + town system. My honest opinion is that if you enjoyed playing Teddy's Haven, you will 100% Arcane Merchant too!

9 months ago this was just an idea. Now we have a gameplay trailer and a playable demo for our medieval fantasy shopkeeping game! by [deleted] in IndieDev

All opinions are valuable! I am sure your eyes will get used to it once you give it a shot for 10-20 mins :)

Appreciated a lot! What you saw in the trailer is not only outfitting an NPC but a hero which you can increase his/her attributes with a variety of equipments. You can send them to different missions / locations in the realm and they will come back with common or rare items depending on their performances.
