The Part-Timer is an adult game made with Ren'Py, with gameplay that is focused on being a dating and management sim! I started working on this game in November, so there will be many more updates to come soon for the game! The Part-Timer in the game is a woman that's looking to make a little extra cash on the side, and you're just an a bored employee of a faceless business that couldn't really say no. Manage the Part-Timer's stats by having her perform different duties around the store, and soon you will be able to ask for personal requests!
