The radio is super duper cool, although (and it might just be me) a little quiet, as I had to turn up to volume to 100. But I cannot judge, i also accidentally made the sound too quiet in my game haha. Still, this was a really relaxing experience and I feel like it leaves you wanting more

How does your game fit the theme?
This game focuses on the main loop we're all used to : work! Pod Operator explores the monotony of the work loop, and the ways we keep ourselves engaged (or distracted); I implore the player to give the in-game radio a listen, hopefully it brings a smile in the endless work-loop!!

This feels really good! Nice going! This is very amusing too lol
I'd appreciate feedback on my submission if you get a chance!
Such a nice game incremental game! The art is really charming, sometimes simpler is the best, and I think here it really complements with a game about exploring work.
Great job!
A simple and charming game, you really nailed it!! I loved the radio it was such a great idea
I got terminated 5 times before figured out what to do XD, pretty chill game, I like the background radio. The vibe is pretty great but it would be great to have a reset button in case of termination?
I'm sorry you had to hear on-boarding that many times lol
I appreciate the feedback, and I totally agree! I'd like to add a system for skipping the first message on restart, or maybe modifying it to be much shorter than the one that plays in the first run, hopefully that can be included in a later release!
Such a nice concept, playing this game. Having voice acting is just such an amazing thing. That is pretty impressive. This game really implemented the concept of a loop perfectly, our daily life work. Overall, it is such a great game. Well done, dude (^▽^)
I didn’t realize that panels had a limit and had to start over a few times 😅, that’s my bad but other than that, it was a really good game!
Did you compose all of the songs in the radio for this game jam? That’s a lot of work, props to you!
And the Russian Mathias photovoltaic ad was a blast lol
Good note, I think my handbook wording on the "4 x ea." limit was a little vague, could be improved!
I composed all the radio clips for the jam specifically, and one or two of the tracks were specific for this jam, some of the songs were ones I made previously but hadn't used really for anything, so I remixed them a little and added them for this project
Thank you, I like that ad as well! lol
great spin on idle games, radio and other voice lines are very enjoyable. Fun Game. Like the art style, would love to see more.
