Really good use of incremental mechanics! The pacing was great, and the structure matches the narrative perfectly. Good job on the aesthetics too, everything really comes together quite well. Funny and concise, great work!

Solidly executed concept totally on point for theme.  Very fun game. Tutorial does a great job guiding you through what would have otherwise a real challenge to grasp.  Good vibes and humour. Could be a bit more work on things like menu sfx and some further UI polish. But things work pretty well with the aesthetics and it looks like time has been spent in the right place getting the core stuff working well. Feels like a coherent and considered world that invites you in with a nod and a wink.  Great stuff!

This was unexpectedly fun. haha

What a brilliant, crazy idea! I could see this being one of Black Mirror episodes. lol

Submitted

A nice horror management game.

Ha thats a cool game. You manage to  implement simpe mechanics with very intersting ways, from buying, to creating new workers. Nice work!

It’s a crazy game and a crazy idea, but it works. A small incremental game, and I enjoyed it. The art is brilliant. It really captures the atmosphere of a grey office. Good job :D

Great game, very funny!

Dan, Rodger, may I have a moment with you in my 'office'.

Such a funny game, I enjoyed it a lot! I especially loved the sound effects.

At first the corporate stock bgm annoyed me, but after playing and understanding the concept, it made a lot of sense. You captured the vibe of the rat race with the uniform looking characters. Hatching businessmen from eggs and having them start off small gave me a good laugh. Weird game... and it works!

At first I thought the game was a sham because the graphics weren't very good, but after I figured it out I enjoyed it. It's an interesting idea =) cloning office clerks. Eugenics

Original and funny concept. I love how employees look like, the graphics in general remind me of half life. It's difficult to figure out what to do, like when instructions say to put syringe somewhere it needs to be more obvious where it is. Otherwise, great job

got my lil man chad cook spawned in, i  was a loving father and boss, cool game i did piss the office off by not having any water lol, the soundtrack did eventually drive me crazy though but perhaps the point lol

The music is a bit of a bug actually!  It’s supposed to pitch down gradually and stay pitched down, so you only hear the annoying song at the very start.  It worked during testing but I guess there is a bug with web export where it ignores the pitch scale when the loop restarts.  I didn’t realize until too late!
