Great job. Reminds me of Papers Please style. The art was very charming to look at and the music fir the theme well.

thank you so much for playing! That's a bit of what we were going for!

I love stuff like this! I played until I ran out of new messages (I wish they would repeat instead of becoming blank) and had a lot of fun with it. The balancing is way off, though. I would recommend reducing the frequency of messages a bit, or at least not sending them until a few modules have been built. In my first playthrough, I got bombarded by messages before I even knew I could buy anything and ended up with negative credits. I'm also not too sure how the module pricing works, but I know that the modules are too cheap and should ramp up in price the more you get. The buttons are also a bit buggy. Still, this is one of my favorite games of the jam and I hope you continue to work on it :D

Developer

thank you so much for playing and for your feedback! We'll definitely be addressing these after the jam!

Really nice! I like the art, the dialogues and characters and the music. After a while it gets a little boring just clicking buttons and I don't really see a certain goal to reach. Additionally it would be nice to see the amount of impact of a decision sometimes (price, amount of fuel it takes). But well done!

Very interesting game and cool graphics and sounds! I would like to see you add more features to it :)

thank you so much! Hope you can return once we've been able to develop further!

I liked the aesthetics of the game. After some time, it starts to appear blank messages, maybe with some randomness in the messages it would improve. Nice soundtrack, you did good!

Developer

thanks so much for playing! The blank screens are a known bug and happen when you run out of messages since they are taken out of circulation, but we ran out of time to add more events. We're planning to address, but don't want to misrepresent what we were able to achieve in 7 days while the jam voting is in progress.

Fun game! I hit a bug towards the end that prevented progression. I hope to see updates in the future!

Developer

Thank you for participating and providing your rating! Your valuable feedback will greatly contribute to refining future iterations and enhancing our creative endeavors. If you find the time could you go into more detail about the bug?

Hey crypticjack, I was livestreaming my playtest and one of the devs was there so they might be able to tell you more about it. At a certain point, after I'd gotten some of the modules, I got a dialogue scene where the portrait was just white and the options were blank.

Fun idle game! It took me a while to realize it was an idle game at all lol, not much direction at the start. Took a few tries to realize it was actually bad to increase your morality by doing good things since you end up getting fired!


Overall it'd be nice if there was a goal? I'm not sure if there was but I kept playing for a bit and there didn't seem to be so stopped

Developer

thanks for playing & rating! the feedback is helpful for future iterations and jams!

Nice game, the color scheme is very fitting! As someone else said a tutorial would have been helpful to understand the gameplay faster but great job anyway

Developer

thanks for playing and rating! And that's definitely planned for a future update!

Way more addicting than I expected it to be. Cool graphics, cool atmosphere, and very fun!!
Loved how you used the Light and Shadows theme to the players moral compass. Specially funny to see what happensto you when you become too corrupt.

Developer(+1)

thank you so much for playing! We're glad you liked it! If this was fleshed out into a complete game would it be something you'd be interested in?

Submitted(+1)

Definitely!

Really fun gameplay, got sucked into it quickly. Eventually made too much money! I encountered a bug where my alert would appear with a white image and be empty. Otherwise, great job!

Developer(+1)

Thanks so much for playing! We'll take a look after the judging period and fix the white image.

Love it! The gameplay loop is very addicting. However, some of the text on the action choices cut off a bit/was a bit hard to read. Otherwise, really great submission!

Developer

Thanks, we appreciate the kind words, we're intending to do a couple of revisions for content and cleaning up the UI legibility after judging closes to clean up and expand on the content.
