Very neat! It has a great GB vibe. The art is simple, but effective. Soundtrack is subtle, but pleasing for ears. But for me the coolest thing about your game is it's concept. It's quite original and I like how you managed to integrate this pack man-like gameplay with it. Job well done!

How does your game match the theme?
The point is to keep your personal space from your boss (Mr. Gerk). Personal space - especially in the workplace from a micromanager - was the first thing to pop into my head.

I like the concept! I also like how you took personal space as a cool implementation of the game jam's theme! Coming from an office job a few years ago, this one made me LOL

Tower of TrialsNice take on the theme :)
This is one of those short but definitely enjoyable games.
Only 2 problems is that when you move forward and backwards, your feet look so damn big lol, and uhh, Mr Gerk getting stuck on coffee and causing lag :/
Still good!

Cyberspace WarpThere's nothing like a nice simple maze game! The enemies were smart enough that it didn't feel like a cakewalk, but stupid enough that it was trivial to run circles around them. The art and writing are also very cute!
The only bug I encountered was Mr. Gerk getting stuck beneath a cup of coffee in the last level, but I grabbed it from under him and kept going!
Great work!

MoonstruckIts always nice to find gb studio games here. I liked a lot the use of the theme in this sea of space shooters! Really fun and simple game, if you manage to give some cartoonish design it would be even better! Maybe some upgrades too, like you get a medical license to leave work for a sick day and your boss temporarily runs from you! ahahaha

Hair or BonesSo relatable! And that was about about as stressful a actually working in an office! Well done!

Tether Billy 3000That gerk! How sneaky his movement!! And sometimes he camped on my coffee, which in turn made me invisible when I picked it up! I will assume this was a feature to give me an extra challenge.
Damn gerk always finding ways to make my day more difficult.
Relatable game, proper Gameboy look, sound, & feel.
10/10 would avoid boss again.

SpacedThe use of the theme is unique. The small cutscenes between the levels add a lot of character to the game. Also I like your take on the maze gameplay of Pacman.

Unknown Space: GBJam11 EditionI like the theme it's a very interesting take on the jam theme!

Terrance Blows Up The Moongame works great, reminds me a bit of pacman. although it doesn't control as smooth as pacman. you have to be pretty precise not to walk into walls. unique take on the theme, I like that, although its a bit depressing. I do often get giant lag spikes during the game. it randomly dips down to like 5-20 fps.
it's also not to long, just the right amount of time. i like that in jam games.

gbjam fighterI was doing all I could to clean up and speed the game along, some sections I just couldn't speed up enough without other issues. And thanks for the heads-up about the walls, if there's a better way to adjust in a future update maybe I'll be sure to put more focus into that.
Thanks so much for playing! :-)
