Hilarious emails and tight quotas. Got caught by the landlord but had fun.
very cute game! I loved how you included a bunch of different applications outside of the mail one, and also all the scammer emails were very unique and funny!
Really fun game ! I like it !
very fun little game I liked the slight variation on the domain names
Very interesting concept, i like it!
Man, I jumped right out of my chair when I got that first email xD (some volume settings wouldn't hurt)
I'm so sorry
but yes, settings are going to be one of the first things I'm going to fix when I am going to polish it
Very nostalgic game. Giving amazn my bank information broke my brain a little bit. Great job! I would love to see where this goes when you have time to give it a bit more polish.
I just played and rated your game!
I really loved the game. The storyline was pretty unique, and I really liked the visuals. Overall, very good work.!
Really fun game! I love the amazing art and effects, and concept was also pretty unique and goes well with the theme, the game deserve wayy more ratings/feedbacks :)
Great job on being your first game!
fun
"YOU GOT MAIL" hahahaha.
Nice little game but as another comment said, I think it would be great to improve the feedback when you report an ip address (and maybe being able to report email adresses too!).
Good submission ! If you have some time, please try out my game :)
Amazing game! Really enjoyed it :D
I hope the Grandma sends me cookies :P
Maybe I did something wrong but I did not get any feedback by the game when reporting an email adress from a scammer so I'm not I did it wrong or it didn't work. The overall design was neat though :)
the reporting mechanic is admittetly a bit underdeveloped and definetly not explained well enough. some of my friends ran into the same issue, because you cant actually report the email addresses, but only the ip addresses and even then, feedback is very limited.
Very neat game. You did a fantastic job with the art assets!
thank you :)
That was fun and really great aesthetic. Unfortunately at the end of day 1 it said I had mail but there was none. Any pointers?
yeah, thats sadly just a bug, you dont actually have any mail and can just click on the shutdown button to start the next da
Ah OK,I tried again but I was broke by the end of the day. The landlord seemed legit so I sent him 300 is that wrong? Is the point that I don't have enough so have to pay a later date?
yes, you actually have 3 day to pay the landlord
Love these desktop-type games. Such a good look. Biggest thing was that when I would drag one tab around, it would collect and move any other tabs I went over. Other than that, really good!
thanks a lot :)
yeah the window thing is annoying and only caused by my big brain move to code a system for detecting clicking on the window bar myself, instead of just using godots buttons. after the jam I am going to upload a fixed version
I'm a sucker for games with fake desktops! There's something strange and scary about clicking a link from an email that seems like a scam, even in a game like this. Thanks for making it!
thank you a lot =)
some of those emails look really suspicious but I really did get $100 so that was fun :D
Had a weird bug where windows that were overlaid over each other would be able to be moved together as a group, other than that it was great
I liked the game a lot, not much to say because i couldn't find anything wrong with the game and overall it was an enjoyable expierence
that makes me happy to hear :)
I got so many emails that eventually I was broke. It is a nice game hehehe
i enjoyed this game a lot! my favorite character was grandma (the plot twist involving her was incredibly funny)
the game loop is actually really, really good, in my opinion. while it lacks a tiny bit of polish, something you're already aware of, it's still very enjoyable and, above all, original.
something you could consider adding, if you plan to keep working on the game, is a more noticeable indicator that you've received money. maybe a visual notification somewhere, coupled with a sound effect.
yes I'm definetly going to add a couple of indicators. Its a problem I noticed a lot when showing the game to friends
