COSMO'S QUICKSTOP! - Space Time Management - Let's Play Cosmo's Quickstop
18Cosmo's Quickstop puts us in charge of a space station and tests our time management skills... of which I have exactly none, so this should go well then...
We play as Morvin, a humble space station assistant who works in Cosmo's Quickstop, Route 66 Million's most popular service station.
The time management aspects of the game are varied, ranging from giving people fuel, oxygen and directions to restocking items, cleaning the toilets and dodging asteroids.
Things start out OK on the normal difficulty but soon everything gets a little anarchic as I try to play on EXTREME level, which is a little foolish given that I can barely manage my own life let alone the business transactions of dozens of irate aliens.
NOTE: This is an early version of the game. I was given a key to the game by BigSirGames but am not affiliated with them in any way and nor have I been paid for this video.

Cosmo’s Quickstop is a fast-paced time management game where you run a gas station in space. You must fulfill customers’ needs by completing numerous minigames found throughout the environment. Individually, each minigame is quick and simple, but as customers pour in, you will find yourself frantically juggling these easy tasks.
Unlike most games of this variety, interaction with the environment is a central theme. You must swiftly navigate the gas station to complete orders and maintain the establishment. As you earn money each day, you will be able to upgrade the Quickstop from a quaint little fueling station to a thriving tourist attraction
Minigames - Each task is completed by playing a simple minigame. From pumping gas to cleaning the glorp room, every game presents a distinct and frantic challenge. Many of these tasks can be set to complete themselves automatically while you dash off to fulfill other orders. Deftly chaining these tasks will earn you the most money.
Combo System - Another satisfied customer! Successfully completing a customer’s order will contribute to your combo level. Each combo level earns you more money per customer. Messing up an order or losing an angry customer will reset your progress to the next combo level. A perfect shift will earn you far more money than a sloppy one.
Environment Interaction - On top of juggling various tasks, you must physically navigate your Quickstop in order to help customers. To perform a shipwash, you have to find the correct customer’s landing pad. To restock the vending machine, you must dash into the stock room for more inventory. Knowing where to be at the right time is critical to success.
Swappable Amenities - Tired of cleaning the filters in the Coffee Shower? Try replacing it with an Arcade or a Gift Shop! In the campaign mode, you will be able to choose what amenities you provide between each day, allowing you to mix up your minigames and alter your play style.
Upgrade-Style Progression - The campaign mode will also feature an upgrade system to allow you to ramp up the challenge at the pace of your success. If you think you’ve mastered handling 4 customers, you can purchase another docking station to add 2 more. Other upgrades will increase the profit or maintainability of specific amenities.
Comically Animated Style - One of the big strengths our team brings to this project is our sense of humor. Each bizarre character features expressive animations that highlight their personalities and every machine is adorned with esoteric levers and dials. From the mouth-produced sound effects to the questionable vending machine selection, every detail of the game aims toward creating a humorous atmosphere.
Cosmometics - Sick of wearing the same drab jumpsuit and hat every day? Cosmo’s got you covered with “Cosmometic” vanity items! Purchase questionable hats and other accessories from your greasy uncle Cosmo’s stash of strip poker winnings. While they don’t offer any real benefits, they are great for adding a little spice to your daily grind.
