I loved that the Restart mechanic is so naturally woven into the storytelling and as a power ^^ The art design of the magical girl is really on point to. Great entry!

This game has a very high replay value from utilizing the features in Arcweave to keep players engaged and wanting to see different outcomes. The dialogue is extremely funny and the topics are even more extremely relatable. As someone who is job searching, a lot of these questions and answers (even the sarcastic ones) touched my soul and sometimes I wanna say these exact things to recruiters. Cuz like... why else am I applying to your damn company?


BUT I DIGRESS!


This is a fantastic little game. I really want to see more options in the dialogue and more funny banter at the interview. I know we had little time to work on the game, so I'm really REALLY hoping you expand on it with a lot more choices in the mix. It's got a SUPER SOLID setup. On top of that, the theme of resilience pops up a LOT without it being super obvious or blatantly stated. Very nice job with the theme here!! :)

Such an engaging and relatable story, I replayed through this multiple times trying to see if I could actually ace that interview.

I really liked the idea, especially that reference to that moment we all go through of receiving 'that email,' all through this casual and fun metaphor; I enjoyed this game.

Effortlessly funny, and it nails the whole ‘trying to find your dream job’ bullshit. When the interviewer said they want someone with multiple hats, I wanted to run away from my screen. Good job! We'll let you know how you did... soon!
