Love the game look and feel! This game really nails the feeling of "everything is a priority, but nothing is of substance" of office work. I also found it funny the boss would teach me how to use the phone and play games even though he doesn't want to catch me actually doing those things.
Love this! Great art style and solid audio design!. All the small mini tasks and constant urgency really nail the feeling of office work
a lot going on but in a good way. Time, content, goals, etc. super nifty game. I am obsessed with the art. 5/5!
Was pretty overwhelming at first, I didn't really understand which sounds/cues corresponded to which things I needed to do. It's really cool art and vibe wise.
Art direction is top notch ! Really, the whole premise, humor and artstyle mesh really well together, game has a lot of charm.
Gameplay wise it's also super fun. It's basically just juggling some countdowns but the presentation and how you navigate from one task to another makes it very fun and satisfying.
Love having the music with the pigeon sound too, only little detail I'd mention is that maybe the music loop is a bit short. The sounds are all great too
Good job I enjoyed it a lot, impressive for a game jam !
Nice. Love the pigeon sounds and the art style. It was funny.
This is by far my favorite submission in the jam, detailed mechanics and so much countdown and doomscrolling in the bathroom stall. Also, I felt a lot of stress just like a real corporate job! I absolutely admire the beautiful artwork that you've created from scratch and the amazing music and SFX! I really want to commend all the 8 people who worked on this incredible game! Truly incredible work! ✌️
I agree! Excellent game they made and I love your thoughts here.
my wife talks at alien frequencies and i love her for it
very fun little jokes in the office and shout out ffxiv
Love the UI and the bird, that was sooooooo cute, I really enjoyed it hahahahaha
What a fun time management game! The art style is unbelievably adorable
This bird has more friends than I do 😰
made all these in just 4 days? wow!!!
Nice artwork. I didn't understanded well the game but it was very pretty. Instructions in menu would have helped, I played the browser version and the credit page didn't worked for me.
Very Impressive submission. Controls didn't work well in browser but were fine for the download. WE LOVE BIRD THEMED GAMES.
AHHHHH! I love this! Its so beautiful and silly! I'm super duper impressed by the art work it looks fantastic! The music is also great!
Super fun and hectic game, loved the art and the style so much!
I love this! The art style is so unique, and pleasing to look at! The gameplay is fun and frantic, love it! Good job!
Really fun game! The art, sound, gameplay, all of it was fun and creative. Well done guys!
i liked this!! the absolute dread of turning back to the computer after signing a document and seeing an email i have yet to reply to....... i found some text on the computer a bit hard to read but apart from that i loved the stylisation of everything!
I love the art style of this game (and feather fantasy XIV)!
