if this doesn't win seriousness WE RIOT

seriously tho great game, out of all the chair spinning games I played, this has the most comfortable controls, I just wish we could see our guy's orientation through walls but that's a small nitpick

the humour is on point, the music with all the corporate talk vocal samples really nailed the fever dream aesthetic, genuinely everything works perfectly together here and I hope it scores well on all fronts, good stuff

Lol. This was great! I really like the texture work especially and the moment when.... I.... uh... excuse me I have go attendtosomethingurgentbye

Asset Liquidation? More like GPU Liquidation !!!

On all seriousness, it's a fun game. Before playing I thought it was literally about selling home goods (liquidating assets) and it was only on the second level, that I realized that it was a euphimism LMAO. I thought it was an entertaining game, kinda reminds me of Clowning Around which is another game around here with a similar mechanic. I don't know if there was more stuff more epic to discover since I left off at like level 4, but I really liked the audio, and how it changed per level, the queue thing I didn't understand where it came from but it was funny lol.

I wouldn't say it's my type of game, but it's pretty well made, and I don't know if this is because of my system requirements but the game felt slow, I always got "Needs Improvement" in the time category and Outstanding or Exceeds Expectations on the others, so yeah. Also I'm not sure if spinning while pushing yourself gave u a lil boost, only tried it once, so yeah.

Overall, I think it's a solid game, great graphics, and I'm sure there was more to see, but I couldn't. So yeah, thanks for making this :D
Also, I don't know if it's intended but on two ocassions the employees (obstacles) talked to me through the walls, if I was close enough. 

This is how it feels to go to work everyday. 

I really like the whole theme of the game and how almost every word is like work-related sayings, you can tell you really thought about the whole thing instead of just setting the thing in an office and nothing else. The humor was very funny, the cutscenes, the dialogue, even the gameplay. I thought the game was pretty fun but sadly by the fourth level I felt like I got it and didn't feel like playing anymore. It was very polished for a game made in 7 days ! I still liked the concept of the game so great job ! ! 

Hello

Note: I couldn't finish the game due to lack of time, so this review is based on the first 5 minutes

This game is probably my favourite office chair type game in the jam! Everything is polished and supports the core game. It is impressive for a solo person to have such a high level of quality! Bravo

Also, as an asocial person, the socializing part is perfect

“Spin Left/Right to avoid social interaction” 🗣️🔥 Banger game, loved the music and the theme interpretation is top tier. Subliminal messages in the second to last song definitely upped my KPI across the board.

I felt my linkedin connections speaking through me while I played this

finally.

after all this time, someone is ready to take business to the next level. this game is truly pushing the needle on what it means to leverage chair pushing solutions to forward the spin economy. fun, intuitive, and a banger

This game has some pretty unique usage of the theme and has interesting mechanics overall. There's so much in this game that I'm going to do a rundown on each category. However, first I'm gonna list some bugs I experienced:... NONE overall I don't think I experienced any bugs either that or they were small so I didn't notice. Two issues that did bother me a little bit is well not being able to play on laptop (but you explained what happened with the optimizing so its fine) and the camera would get stuck on the wall so I was super zoomed in and I couldn't really see where I was going but that was fixed by moving away from the wall.

Enjoyment:
The main topic and probably most important question is did I enjoy the game? Well yes the animations are beautiful as well as the story (not really story I'm just talking about the cool final level), music, and even the title (yes the title). Gameplay could've been spiced up a little more which I guess was the last level but one thing that bummed me out is the fire wasn't chasing me and I don't think you can burn yourself alive. I think I got a pretty good score on every level so my only note for this category is more challenge = more fun (at least for me). 5/5.

Creativity & Theme:
Now while my previous statement regarding this was that this is a unique idea this kind've category in a jam is one that sorta changes over time and that's no different for this jam. Even though in the process of creating my own game I didn't think of spinning chairs doesn't make this a unique idea its more how much did everyone as a whole think of this idea. In the day leading up to playing this masterpiece I did end up playing a lot of spinney chair games which did impact my score to give you a 4/5 stars but again I want to thoroughly say that this could change and I might put it up to a 5. 

Visuals:
As I've already explained the visuals are banger. The beginning cutscene was something I didn't expect out of this game since (don't tell the other games) most other entries just have a giant text box explaining lore. ANYWAYSSSSS I really liked the lingo of business with the Resume slide deck, or Read the fine print though having the real meaning directly below does look a little strange so maybe just have a toggle on the right that says text lingo so you can switch back and forth when you please. Moving onto the actual game this was pretty good all the visuals look solid maybe the ring to get a boost when your pushing could look better but that's just a nick pick not a real request. 5/5.

Audio:
Ok now this is where the game truly excels above all my expectations. The way the music is seamlessly integrated into some sort of voice/alarm/talking is awesome and really shows your music skills. All the SFX are pretty perfect I mean its just sfx lmao. Voice acting was awesome I feel like it would've been cool to actually here people read out the lines that appear when you bump into a coworker but besides that its really good. 5/5.

Seriousness:
Now the main event was this game serious? HELL YEAH the dang building was on FIRE like that was sick I entered that level and was questioning why they were all running then the dang fire appeared (btw I'm pretty sure all my coworkers are dead because like the one thing you don't do is escape a fire THROUGH the ELEVATOR) and like wow. 5/5.

Almost full marks from me!

this game is a banger, perhaps a hidden gem. gameplay is funny and kind of evil. audio and music especially is so funny to me, the random corporate buzzwords over some kinda hype music lmaoo

I don't really like the mechanic of timing the spinning wheel. It feels like if it spawns on top of you, you are put in a lose lose situation. Either you wait for the spinner to do a full loop, wasting a second. Or you just let go immediately and do a weak push. Both options feel bad. Similarly, spinning next to your coworkers is so funny! However, undoing the spin takes wayyy too long. It feels very unsatisfying.

Overall though I quite enjoyed this game. The queue time jokes were especially very funny. This is probably the first game I've played the entire jam that has made me laugh!

Great game, but upper management wanted to let you know you we need to put cover pages on all our TPS reports, okay, grrreaaat.
Had a blast playing this. the UI camera work was a really nice touch. You really embraced the setting for all it was worth. Great job
