Welcome to Maya’s Mini-Mart!

One suspicious supermarket. Three very different ways to play.

Step inside Maya’s Mini-Mart, a colorful retro-inspired supermarket where the products are questionable, the shopping gets competitive, and the resident orange tabby has a talent for escaping places he probably shouldn’t be.

Explore three connected game modes, each with its own challenges and personality.

PLAY MINI-MART

Browse the shelves, investigate strange products with your EYEPad, uncover their questionable marketing claims, and try to complete your shopping list without getting taken for a ride.

BLUE-LIGHT SHOPPING SPREE

The blue light is flashing, the clock is ticking, and another shopper wants everything on your list.

Race through the aisles, collect the right products, avoid obstacles, and reach checkout before time runs out. Choose your shopper and see how your score compares with your previous runs.

WHODINI’S GREAT ESCAPE

The store is closing, the gates are coming down, and Whodini is still inside.

Take control of an unusually resourceful orange tabby. Discover hidden Angles, squeeze through gaps, vault obstacles, ride shopping carts, and use Whodini’s special ability to escape before lockdown.

This mode is currently a playable prototype. Your feedback will help shape its future levels and mechanics.

CONTROLS

Mini-Mart: Mouse, touch, and the on-screen EYEPad interface.

Blue-Light Shopping Spree: WASD or arrow keys to move, Space or E to collect products, Shift to sprint.

Whodini’s Great Escape: WASD or arrow keys to move, Space or E to take an Angle, Shift to activate Whodini’s Special when available.

Blue-Light and Whodini also include on-screen touch controls. Mobile support is still being tested.

HELP US BUILD A BETTER GAME

This is a free, actively developed field-test build. We’re looking for players who enjoy arcade games, retro aesthetics, unusual mechanics, and cats with questionable respect for store policy.

Play all three modes, experiment, and tell us what works and what doesn’t.

We especially want to know:

• Which mode you enjoy most and whether you want to play it again.
• Whether the controls, objectives, and scoring make sense.
• What feels confusing, frustrating, too easy, or too difficult.
• How the game runs on your device.
• Whether the three modes feel like parts of the same game.

After playing, return to the mode-select screen and use COPY PLAYTEST REPORT. The report includes your locally recorded playtest results and any feedback you choose to enter.

Nothing is transmitted automatically by the game’s playtest reporter. You decide whether to share your report by pasting it into the comments below.

Bug reports, screenshots, suggestions, and unexpected supermarket disasters are all welcome.

Free to play. No account required to play. No purchase required.

Maya’s Mini-Mart is part of the FOREVER:NEON universe.
