A fun submission! Very fun idea, I thought the computer UI was so cute. :') 

Developer

thank you for playing!

Nice, loved the music! The sprite choices felt a bit random though, having gun amo for the keyboard weapon, and generic npc sprite instead of coworker looking ncp sprite broke the immersion for me. That said, that's a really ambitious first game! And it was fun to play! GG!

Developer

thank you! big credits to icecoldbottleofmilk (youtube and spotify) for the music

i did the artwork myself and im not a very good artist lol, the sprites were meant to look like office workers, and the ammo was meant to look more like the space bar of the keyboard, but thank you for your feedback! i’m so glad it was fun to play :)

you make me wonder if the version I played didnt have the placeholders in? my npc were clothed in brown and kind of adventury looking, and amos looked like golden bullets 👀

i only submitted one version of the game i'm sure, maybe we're talking about the same thing just in two different ways aha , either way i'll definitely be working on improving my art for my next game!

That's a nice first game! I like the mix of 2D assets and 3D environment and the music was well-fitted, it gave me an urge to rush to the beach with no regards for the life of my coworkers. I had a hard time with the doors and kept barging into closed doors haha :D 

Developer

thank you! the doors not opening when needed was initially a bug i hadn't fixed but i think it makes the game more exciting lol :)

Nice job for your first game! Spoilers ahead. If there was more things to do on the computer I think this would fit the theme better, you are left with no choice but to turn off the computer. However, it was super cute and gave me a good laugh! I was shouting at my computer "Let me out! I'm going to the beach!" XD

Developer

thank you!! i ran out of time to expand on the computer more, but i'm really glad it made you laugh!

I somehow didn’t think anyone would combine a shooter with this theme. The shooting doesn't seem to work consistently, which makes it hard to progress in game. But +1 on chuckle.

Developer

thank you for playing! thank you for letting me know about the shooting mechanic, others have told me too, something for me to keep in mind for next time!

The game is unique, but there are some bugs when I go full screen, for example, I didn't get the cutscene until I escape to window mode, and sometimes when I'm trying to move my crosshair, my cursor goes out, and the game flick the crosshair back. But overall the game is fun

Developer

thank you for playing! i'm glad u found it fun, ty for letting me know about the bugs !! a couple people had mentioned the shooting mechanic doesnt work as well in full screen :( sorry about that!

This game made me chuckle. I definitely did NOT ;) exit the building and go to the beach.
