Love the quotes, for a simple idea and playthrough the game is really fun and get suprisingly hard really quick.
Fun game!! I was surprised how a kanban was mixed with a bunch of interesting mini games and really like the turn on/off idea haha.
This is a really good, polished game! I didn't realise until week 4 that you had 5 days to do all the tasks, so I was stressing at first! It was fun planning which tasks to keep until the end for max efficiency. Great work!
Really fun gameplay loop (even if it does involve math), clever use of the theme. Congrats on completing the game jam!
I had so much fun playing this! I was so close to winning, just one IT away! I would love to see this expanded with more mini games
CUSTOMER ACQUISITION RATE
Fun game, I enjoyed the satireness. I owuld have liked more variety in the minigames but its awesome for 4 days work. Nice work!
really like the quotes and the corporate slangs good job! and the minigame where it’s just always the same image lol. had a blast.
Ahh, Kanban Boards, is there anything better? Creative way to put minigames into a game. Good work :)
AMAZING GAME, it had me fully locked in and i feel like I hit flow state. Also had me rust off my brain for the quick maths
The little mini-games were really fun to do really quick! I also made it to the top of the latter!
Even though the tasks are quite tedious and repetitive, they do add to the feeling of stress in a very neat way. I really enjoyed it and felt really motivated to see what would come next. I kinda got into some kind of flow state with it. Very nice execution of such a simple yet addictive game loop.
Very well done for sure ! :)
Nice concept, even though it's repetitive it's fun because it keeps getting more and more chaotic. I like it
This was stressful 😭. Thanks for reminding me why I should never get a corporate job. It got a bit repetitive but the concept is simple and well executed. Good job creating the art yourself!
i really liked the minigames especially the office meme one!
i did most of the tasks on day 1 but then the moving box bugged out when i completed it as the day moved on.
really fun idea and great execution of it, might be my favourite so far!
Thank you!!
oddly satisfying…
i wish i would be promoted that often (definitely not at that company though, not even the possibility of becoming god could make me do such boring tasks)
Really fun game! There are a few spelling mistakes in the final screen, but apart from that I had a lot of fun
I really enjoyed it. Ran into a bug where iI completed a task as/after the day ended? I got soft locked. Lowkey lore accurate, I was about to get promoted so the game had to sideline me. Will have to circle back with my manager at my next eval to see if I can make some lateral moves into a position with more avenues for growth. Bug fit the narrative. 10/10 experience.
Haha, tanks for playing! Bug noted. Yeah I believe several players had similar issues
The quotes and corporate slang really make you feel like you're working at some big company! I had a bug where a task would be finished automatically and it meant I had to wait until the next day though. This game was really fun!
Thanks for playing! Bug noted
A cool idea, and I had fun! I encountered a bug where one of my tasks would appear as completed(a checkmark) and in the to-do list, and when I tried to do it, I couldn't do anything, so I had to wait until the next day(It was the box one, and I still beat the game!). Aside from that, I only have two suggestions. One is to up the difficulty a bit! I didn't have much difficulty, and finished week 10 on Thursday! Just a simple change of having a bit less time, or maybe even a difficulty selection. Obviously, time constraints mean you can't have all the features you want, but still something to consider for after the jam! The one other suggestion I had is to add more minigames! Again, time constraints, but I would suggest something like a file based minigame, or attending meetings where you have to submit the right answers, that kind of thing! Other than that, great game, good luck!
Thanks for playing! I complete agree with everything you said. Yeah, time was a constraint but I also had some other tasks ideas that couldn´t implement
