Funny Idea! :D Interesting that you developed two small (although previously invented) games in such a short time and also made the spreadsheet feel rather real :P

How does you game fit the theme?
It looks like a spreadsheet app, but that part of it is not real. It hides minigames.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
With the exception of credited (licenced) assets, I made everything.

A great idea and execution! I'm too bad to beat either of the two games I found, but I appreciate all of it lmao :D
Good take on the theme and interesting idea. I like how half of the game is trying to find the games, fun little easter egg hunt.
Cool concept! Had fun :)
If you don't mind checking out my game

As someone who works in excel and spreadsheets all day long I was skeptical of this submission, but honestly this was awesome!! Great job!
Rated!, really nice, "ahem".. spread sheet. nothing else to say. cause there's nothing here. ;)

i legit thought this was an embed of google spreadsheets or microsoft excel. oh my god i love it
you really clone google sheet congrats! I will use your version at work now, better for productivity :)
The idea is fun, and I had fun finding the hidden minigames. But it feels a bit like you have used to much time on a realistic spreadsheet app, and a bit too little time on the mini games. Anyway the idea is cool and it fits the jam theme very well. Overall an interesting jam game.
Thanks for this feedback. I had to tear myself away from working on the façade, to work on the games, because the façade was the most interesting thing to me. With the exception of Tetris (which I had never implemented before); the other games took 3-4 hours each (I had also not implemented breakout before, but I followed others' implementations so it was considerably easier to make than Tetris). I wish I had been working on this in a team, and that the teammates could have taken over the games, so that I could continue to make the façade more realistic and functional.
Then, I think, they could have given the games the polish they needed to really stand out.
10/10 best spreadsheet tool. Microsoft and Google won't be in business for long after this.
This was so convincingly realistic, I forgot about the theme of this whole game jam: I thought this was going to be some kind of productive asset, but I was more than pleased to find out I was wrong :) Trying to find (and win) all the minigames were really fun!
Was very productive at work today :) Had fun finding the minigames. I feel like this is an adult easter egg hunt. I have no idea how you made it!
