About the Game

A Floaty Desktop Game

Inspired by games like Rusty's Retirement, Ropuka's Idle Island and sharing the love for retro VHS - just like Retro Rewind you can now live the life of a VHS rental shop owner in the good old days. Start with a dusty, boxed-off space and turn it into a flourishing, cozy VHS rental store, all styled to your heart’s content.

Style and Decorate

Customize your shop owner, expand your shop, style it and decorate it however you like. Comfort brings customers, and customers bring in money. 
Give your store a theme, heck even multiple themes and style it with props that are fitting. Choose from posters, props, lighting and many more.

Take It Slow and Give It Life

Bring Tiny Tape Store to life by expanding your shop and playing mini-games to help your shop owner. Make it truly yours. Take a seat, make a cup of coffee, and watch it come alive while you go about your everyday computer life.

Play minigames

There are a few optional minigames like;

  • Unlocking your safe to store the days earnings

  • Rewinding tapes

  • Re-stocking shelves

  • Recommendations

  • Fines for late returns

Earn passive income 

While you're away from your PC, your shop will keep running and earning money. 

Add popcorn machines, arcade machines and some other things that customers can interact with.

Decorations = Vibes and vibes bring you customers.
