visual-wise, a wonderful game. took me a while to get used to but once I got the hang of it, it became enjoyable.

Thanks for playing my game.

Really cool idea, really cool art and music and very funny comic strip to start the game. However, the gameplay seemed either a bit confusing or glitchy because my character was sometimes not even appearing and fixing the files didn't seem to have much effect. Overall, very cool concept !

Developer

Thanks for playing my game. About the glitchy visual, Are you using a Mac book? I don't have a mac book so i can't really check bug on it.
Some people have the same issues because they are using Mac. if you are using window, check the download for the window version. Maybe because i'm using "SharedArrayBuffersupport " on the web version so the visual disappear sometime.

I had similar idea but dong came up with realisation. Love the visuals

Thanks for playing my game. Your visual is pretty cool too.

Beautiful and creative game. It took me a little while to get the hang of it, but soon, my work started to make a difference at the company ;)

Developer(+1)

Haha. Do you think you can handle all the jobs in this company? 
joke aside. Thanks for playing my game.

It was a bit hard to get the hang of at first, but it was fun once you did. The art and writing were really good!

Developer

Thanks for playing my game. Yours is pretty fun too.

A game about what I do at work every day xDDDD

This is a really fun time management game. It was a bit hard to figure out at first, but once everything clicked it turned into a real race against the clock. At some point I realized I was playing almost entirely on muscle memory. It's really easy to get into the flow, and that's a great sign.

I also want to mention the visuals and the sound. They are both fantastic. The pause button was especially cute and creative, I loved that little detail :)

Great game, congratulations!!!

Developer

Thanks for playing my game.
If this is what you have to do though. ARE YOU OK? Are you at "Lumon".

Having to work on my day off! I feel a bit offended, but the art was very cute, and if my eyes are happy, I guess I am too. Good job on this jam!

Developer(+1)

AND YOU BETTER BE KEEPING WORKING.
Just joking. Thanks for playing my game. Your game story is very cute too.
Take this.

Such a cute and creative game! I had a great time, even though my slow reactions meant the company was already doomed by level 2, haha. Clearly I’m not employee-of-the-year material! And honestly, this might be my favorite art style I’ve seen in the jam so far—it has so much personality!

Developer(+1)

Don't worry man. The company is supposed to collapse because of AI anyway. With all your effort, you can not save this company haha.
Thanks for play my game. Yours is very cute too.

Haha, good to know it wasn’t entirely my fault! And thank you—that means a lot!

super cute game! the hydration meter runs out so fast & adds that little extra bit of pressure which is a nice challenge.

Developer

Thank for playing my game. Do you know whose else game is cute too??  YOURS

Submitted(+1)

that's very sweet, thank you!

Love the music and art for the game! It did feel repetitive pretty quickly but could easily see this being expanded to have more tasks the break up that repetition

Developer

Thanks for the criticism. Might add more tasks in the future.

Submitted(+1)

I love how cute and cozy the game is! It is quite annoying when the mistakes in the file are right next to each other so it's almost impossible to react. It also gets repetitive quickly unfortunately so I really hope to see it expands with more tasks.

Developer (1 edit)

Thanks for playing my game. I understand your frustration. I try to fix it near the end but run of of time lol.
I might add some more tasks in the future.

I really love this game! 5 stars across the board for me.  It perfectly mixed the cozy game genre with a little anxiety from the count down! Fixing bugs never feels so satisfying. 

Developer

Thanks. Your game is amazing too.

Took me a second to get the hang of things, but then it was a pretty engaging little time management game! I did run into a bug, though: the day ended while I was sitting in the chair, and when I reentered the level, the character was gone.

Developer

Thanks for playing my game. I try to recreate that bug but i don't know how. Thanks for pointing it out.

Submitted(+1)

I had no idea on what to do, until i scrolled down and read your description. I think it's a fun game, and a really unique interpretation of the theme, I don't think I've seen this anywhere else in the jam. It was very chill to play, great job!

Developer(+1)

I send it to my friends last minutes and get the same respond Lol. As a last ditch effort, i write it into the description :).
Thanks for playing my game.

Fun little work place game, and a creative take on the theme! I really like the art style and you chose some very chill and fitting music. Good job making it!

Developer

Thanks for playing my game. Your game is amazing. You should make it into a full game.

Very appealing artwork! Game also is very action packed and makes me want to keep playing. I loved the water system it adds that hurriedness

Developer
