I like the artwork, it's really smooth :D

I don't know if this is just a me problem or a WebGL problem, but I couldn't see the edges of the screen. I was so confused when I couldn't close certain virus popups or see what my score was. Still a great game at the end of the day, but this affected my enjoyment of it a bit.

Thanks for letting us know! The game is currently intended to be played in fullscreen, otherwise some UI can be cropped. Sorry about that, and thanks for playing!

Awesome game! Loved the frantic vibe, though adjusting the hitboxes on the Excel screen to be less precise would feel much smoother

This is genuinely my favorite game in this jam so far! So funny to slack off but quickly log in to excel, while hearing footsteps... But stuffing up the log in haha. Great game you have here! The countdown to reach the score was perfect
