ACM3 money and followers

ACM3 lets you sell anomalous cups online, unlike the earlier drink-and-transform loop. Public itch files are v0.1.2; the v0.2 update is for Patrons. No official price formula or follower exchange rate is published.

What I verified

The official itch how-to says: insert a coin, type a word, and keep the resulting cup in inventory. You can drink it, offer it to a neighbor, or sell it online. Steam says to box up cups and sell them to pay bills, and to post selfies, gain followers and likes to boost sales. These are the supported earning and follower routes, not a guaranteed optimized strategy.

Keep some money available before spending it all on inventory. A player reports a zero-balance game-over loop and a follow-up recovery by loading earlier save points and listing cups. This is a player workaround, not a developer-confirmed bug fix. Back up progress before testing it.

What I will not pretend

A player says posting and gaining followers speeds sales. Other players report price sensitivity. Neither provides an edition-specific formula or a guaranteed price threshold, so no numeric income promise is given here. If sales stop, compare your edition, available inventory, listing price, and save state before assuming a bug.

Questions

Is “no money” a known bug?

Players search for it. I cannot confirm a developer acknowledgement from the sources I opened.

Does ACM2 have followers?

Not as a system I saw on the ACM2 store page. Stay on this page only for ACM3.
