Shop sim template
One shelf, one product, one price, one customer. Recettear (EasyGameStation, 2007) is the haggle. Moonlighter (Digital Sun, 2018) fills the shelf after a dungeon, which you do not need yet. Supermarket Simulator (Nokta Games, 2024) is the shelf as the whole camera. If every price sells out, you are not pricing. The AI tycoon game maker is the nearest page for the money.

What makes a shop sim
Shop sim: stocking, pricing and selling in your own store.
The games that set the standard are Supermarket Simulator (Nokta Games, 2024), Moonlighter (Digital Sun, 2018) and Recettear (EasyGameStation, 2007).
What the template starts with
The shop sim template starts with one shelf, one product and one customer. That is the smallest version of the loop that defines the genre: stock, price, sell, restock.
What to change first
Set the price high enough that the customer refuses, then low enough that you regret it. Stock the shelf in between. A customer who always buys has no opinion.
2D or 3D
The shop sim template starts in 3D.
