Full disclosure I also follow JerBob on YouTube so I saw his devlog for this game,. I am trying to rate it independently of my bias.
There is a lot I like about this game:
- Visuals are good, but the best part IMO is that the computer game is the only part that is in color, which gives it some nice visual distinction. I also love the juice typing in the keyboard.
- Music and SFX are well chosen. I particularly like that "Huh?" is heard even when you aren't spinning the chair, preventing an early end. But this might lead to never actually using the spin mechanic in the game. I just listened for my coworkers then went back
Personally, I had trouble with the SPACE, SHIFT, E layout. I think the game might have benefited by incorporating the mouse - I kept feeling like I should hit a mouse button throughout the game, which would keep me from contorting my hands to keep from being caught!
That said it really is a fun time. For an extra layer of difficulty, I will try playing this game while at work, avoiding my coworkers watching me play the game where I avoid coworkers watching me play a game.
