About This Demo

Shirt Happens! is an online co-op game where you and your friends run a T-shirt workshop. Design the prints, make the shirts by hand and sell them. Play as a duo or solo — or go up to 6 players if you're in the mood for a factory.

About the demo: The demo covers your workshop's first five days. Designing, all five machines, running the shop, after hours and the rec room are all in, and both 1–6 player co-op and solo are open. Filming with your phone, video editing and social media are waiting in the full version.

DRAW YOUR OWN DESIGNS

Your shirt, your fault: The office computer runs a real drawing program — layers, effects, blend modes, symmetry, the works. Whatever you draw, someone actually has to make it. Designs belong to the whole workshop, so your friend's ugly frog might just become your bestseller.

MAKE IT BY HAND

Fabric in, T-shirt out: Cut, sew, overlock, press, box. Every machine takes skill, and every one of them can ruin a shirt. Push the sewing machine too hard and it overheats. Miss a wrinkle on the overlocker and the shirt tears right down the middle. The name is no accident.

SPLIT THE WORK — OR DON'T

Nobody hands out jobs: Spend the morning at the cutting table and vanish after lunch, or settle in at one machine and become the one whose station everybody learns not to touch. XP is earned as a team, but everyone spends their own skill points — so every crew grows its own specialists.

GROW THE BRAND

From back room to label: Set your own prices, watch where demand goes, keep your regulars happy, cut down on returns. Chase this week's trend or ignore it completely. Once your name gets around, wholesale contracts come knocking.

CLOCK OUT AT SIX

The shift ends, the workshop doesn't: At six the courier picks up the boxes and the orders stop. The rest of the evening is yours: restock the shelves, draw tomorrow's shirt, throw a chair at a coworker, play darts, or snatch a finished shirt right out of someone's hands. The day ends when everyone hits the sleep switch by the door — or at 11 PM if the crew can't make up its mind.

IN THE FULL VERSION: FILM IT AND SHARE IT

Your worst day is your best content: Pull out your phone and record the shift — your real shirts, your friends' real voices, the part where it all went wrong. Cut it on the computer, sync it to the beat, add a voiceover that blames someone else, and post it. The comments start rolling in while you're still sewing.

Shirt Happens! was made with the help of generative AI. We used it to write and review
code, to bring the game's mechanics online, to support our UI work, to generate visual
assets and reference images for our 2D and 3D art, to draft written text including parts
