Cool story and cool game! I like premise, like how you made multiple endings, and I suppose this could be begining of some larger game,it surely has potential!

Developer

Thank you very much!!!!!

Okay, I really love the store and it's fun getting the different endings and the music fits really well.

But getting the endings is pretty boring, because you end up just waiting, until you fail at the job, so maybe all the minigames should have some instant fail condition, to make it less of just waiting.

And then the art, it's pixel art, but the pixel scale is so inconsistent, when making pixel art, you should always have the same pixel size for everything, or it's gonna end up looking bad, if you want big things, have the same pixel size and more details, but don't just scale it, differently sized pixels will ALWAYS look bad, so please don't do that, your games will look so much better if you just scale them correctly.

And then a trick to make the game magically 3x better, use post processing, bloom and vignette and it's gonna look so much better.

And you should also add more sound effect for extra feedback, like picking up a file, putting a file to folder, clicking a calculator button, those minigame bulbs lighting up and clicking those bulbs, those at least need some simple sound effect, because they feel really empty currently.

Developer

wow thanks for such a great review. I'm new to game development and such tips are really useful to me, thank you!

Cool game. I just want to point one mildly annoying thing out: why can you skip the text and not forward it to show completely? I don't have the patience to wait for the text to show word by word. But the only solution was to skip it completely. I would love to just skip to the end of the text on mouse press and then continue ;)

Developer

thank you for your feedback. maybe I'll add this after the game jam
