In 1962, the Mansfield, Ohio police department setup a hidden surveillance camera behind a two-way mirror, and secretly filmed dudes having sex with dudes in a public bathroom. The police used the film footage to imprison them for a year or more under Ohio's sodomy laws.
Today in 2017, police still target men who have sex with men -- and in video game land, I still have to deal with Twitch banning my gay games by secret trial as if they're the fucking game police. So to appease this oppressive conservative gamer-surveillance complex, I have swapped out any pesky penises in my game for the only thing that the game industry will never moderate nor ban -- guns. Now, there's nothing wrong with guys appreciating other guys' guns, right?

IS THIS "SAFE FOR WORK"? Although it is extremely gay, there is no human genitalia and no human nudity in this game. This was an intentional choice to comply with Twitch's vague, selectively enforced, and anti-indie ban regime. However, we still invite you to exercise discretion around employers and children.
NEED TIPS AND HINTS TO WIN? We recommend reading the official strategy guide "Tearoom Trade" by Laud Humphreys. Chapter 3 ("Rules and Roles") gives a good primer, and chapter 4 ("Patterns of Collective Action") discusses advanced meta and tactics.
IS THE GAME CRASHING OR RUNNING SLOWLY? See tech support / troubleshooting here. To avoid problems, use the free open-source official "itch" app for automatic install and patching.
