Felt great to get the polyphonic midi keyboard working fully. Godot's polyphonic audio stream system was a bit confusing so it felt cool to finally get that figured out.

I think I landed right into the sweet spot where I just played the midi keyboard so long that he said “oh yea, I can see you now” and I was like “Shut Up! I’m making music!”

Fun little waiting game!

Interesting concept...but it didn't really get me. Maybe I've totally missed the MIDI part. However, I didn't really understand the goal of the game or how it fits the theme.

wow this was lovely (as opposed to the real life equivalent)! i like the campy dialogue that occurs between the player and the clerk, it has a lot of pretty fun writing in it! also kind of love the fact that the clerk should be busy with their job, but they have to entertain you while poking around through the office. its in a fun way too, they don't try to tell you off on being distracting or something, its very cute!

the radio music is sick! a good catchy song to play while snooping around official public offices xd. the piano was also so fun to play, although i was essentially just key smashing its nice to see an interactable keyboard in the game! i also like it doesn't auto-force you out of the office once the clerk is done with their work and you can just keep going. now they have to wait for me to finish MY WORK. very fun stuff, great work!

Thank you for the kind and thoughtful words!

Really cool midi keyboard & music - not sure how it fitted the theme, but I enjoyed it anyway :)

Funny little game. I generally enjoyed my stay at the city hall, so it already beats real life. The Midi keyboard of course was the star of the show, really cool.

love that radio vibe! the keyboard was also super fun to play with! Having had to file multiple forms at the embassy before, I can honestly say that this game is spot on, too close to reality lol Cute graphics and lovely sense of humor! I think I was able to interact with every object that I could, but it would be nice to have some form of indicator of the objects I can interact with. Great waiting game :)

Developer

Yeah this was more or less based on my own experiences of filing things at the courthouses around here. Good point about indicating what is interactable. Glad you enjoyed the radio and keyboard!

Ok that was pretty funny

I dont know if this was the intention but it was pretty funny! The music is also a jam

I don't know if I've ever seen a full keyboard hookup in a game. Very cool

Those jams are absolutely worth having on in the background while I fill out paperwork and perform beaurocratic tasks.

Developer

Yeah a big inspiration was how helpful music was back in my law school days.

i turned the radio into a motor lol

What a fun little experience, listening to the music, dancing around like a maniac, meanwhile waiting for bossman to finish his paperwork and talking about a coat rack hahahha Gold! 

Overall great music design! And great direction!

Had a fun time playing, very bizarre game but it certainly fits. 9/10 would've loved if the bossman turned into a monster!
