We picked lemonade first.

Now What we are building

• 8 stand tiers. Cardboard Box → Folding Table → Wooden Stand → Painted Kiosk → Branded Stand → Storefront Cart → Giant Lemon Stand → Lemonade Building. Each tier has its own custom artwork and a one-time payoff cue when you serve your first sale at that level.
• Price choice matters. Pick Cheap, Fair, or Pricey — the HUD shows demand chips so you can see what customers think of your prices.
• Weather shapes each day. Sunny is baseline. Hot days bring more customers with premium tips. Cloudy days are slower but every sale earns +1 bonus coin — quality over quantity. Heatwave rushes bring the fastest crowd with slightly lower per-sale tips. Rainy days lower your restock cost. Every weather now has a distinct upside — no bad-luck days.
• Daily P&L chips. The HUD tracks today's revenue, supply cost, spoilage loss, and net profit — so you can see how each day really went.
• Streaks and combos. Happy customers, fast serves, and weather bonuses build visible streaks for extra coins.
• Park scene with trees, bench, lamp post, flowers, butterfly, robin, and drifting clouds. The Day 1 Sunny Stand has a rich park — trees, bench, lamp post, colourful flowers, green bush puffs at the tree bases, a robin perched nearby, and soft white clouds in the sky. All pure Part geometry built in Luau — no imported assets.
• Coin pop animation. Every sale triggers a 4-frame coin burst that starts small, peaks with a + symbol, and fades away.
• Customer reaction bubbles. Four customer archetypes (happy, thirsty, patient, grumpy) each have their own reaction bubble artwork.
• Weather visual overlays. The sky and screen tint change with each weather type — warm sun flare on sunny days, grey desaturation on cloudy days, blue tint on rainy days, and intense heat shimmer when a heatwave hits.
• Countdown anticipation ramp. In the last 3 seconds before the next customer arrives, the countdown timer scales up and shifts colour from white → yellow → orange → green, and the customer sprite fades in at the edge of the stand so you see them walking up instead of popping into view.
• Fast-serve tip bonus. Serve a customer within 3 seconds of arrival and earn +1 bonus coin with a "Quick serve!" flash. Rewards attentive play — the faster you tap, the more you earn.
• Tier-scaled customer speed. Each stand upgrade shortens the wait between customers: Tier 1 sees someone every 6 seconds (Sunny), Tier 5 every 3 seconds. Upgrading makes your stand busier so you feel the progress.
• Customer rush on upgrade. When you upgrade your stand, the next 4 customers arrive at double speed — a brief surge that makes upgrading feel like a real business boost. The stand gets busier the moment you level up.
• New day jump-start. When a new day begins, the first customer arrives in just 3 seconds — no more long dead waits at the start of the day. The stand opens and business starts right away.
• Greeter sways in the park. The customer NPC at your stand rocks gently side-to-side instead of standing frozen. The park reads as alive from the moment you press Play.
• Runtime startup is verified in v113. The runtime bootstrap has been verified in Studio Play mode. The public note is explicit: visual verification still waits on the bridge queue; the last confirmed visual remains v51 on 2026-06-24.
