This game is amazing and very underrated! Visuals nice, sound effects nice, idea is awesome. EVERYTHING IS AWESOME! 

My boss is so strict, haha! I was just admiring the view from the window, and he fired me XD.

Again: very fun and very underrated game. Great job!

Developer

Thank you! I wanted it to be a short-funny game.

This game is like actually kind of amazing. The idea of restarting over and over again learning what things to avoid until you eventually do everything right fits the theme perfectly. The game is pretty well polished and fun getting all of the different endings. I think I got all of them? Unless there's some secret ones I didn't get. Overall, it's probably one of my favorite games on here. It's simple but charming and entertaining for what it is.

For feedback all I can give is maybe make it even more bizarre scenarios and adding more things to interact with. Maybe it would help making it clearer when exactly certain things change in the game such as the water puddle and coffee. Maybe showing steam on the coffee and it disappears later and having a janitor walk in and make some cleaning noises to signify when it's cleaned up.

Really enjoyed playing Work Day! Had a lot of fun trying to solve the puzzles and progress through the day! The art, sounds and overall game felt great and loved some of the different endings! Something about the slip cracked me up every time. Great work!

I like the art style!

A very fun experience, I love the art style and the different elements of the game with the mini tasks and avoiding the boss who is definitely the best boss.

Developer

You know he s the best boss ;)

Liked it a lot! Feels like a foundation to a big indie game. Id suggest you'll make a save system - when you fail at each task, you will start it again and not the entire game because the game Is mostly talking and clicking and I got it already memorized XD

Keep making progress!

Developer

Thank you! I was thinking about making it a full game after the game jam.

Really liked the art style, fun and innovative gameplay.

I like the art and audio, its simple, but works well! Please fix the bugs tho xD

1 - Camera isn't resetting properly after talking or working on pc. After I did the work in my worktable, I was completely zoomed in and couldnt talk to the boss bcs my camera was stuck to the pc.

2 - Walking and entering dialogue makes you keep walking (and slip)

Developer

I'm so sorry for this..It worked fine while playtesting

Developer

Now the bugs are fixed! Thanks for giving feedback!

Submitted

Thanks for fixing it so quick!

Developer

Hello, I like the 2D drawing and the story I lost several times (I'm too bad lol)

But I noticed a bug my character was always moving during dialogues (when I was talking to my colleague so I slipped and had to start again Ouch )

Developer(+1)

OOF I thought I've fixed that, it was a last moment change. Thanks for playing!
