GMTK Game Jam 2020

in terms of gameplay it's a little hard to know when you're doing it right! is it possible to 'save' the reports before the battery dies? or are you supposed to start again every time?

This was a common question I've gotten, and given that I literally had the code verifying whether you'd passed each report check ready I'm kicking myself that I didn't communicate it in the game. The game is basically only checking to see whether you've inputted enough keystrokes in a given time window on that screen. There's multiple ways I could have shown that progress better - oh what hindsight does to you. Thanks for the feedback!

Hindsight, sure, but to be fair, 2 days is very little time to make a game, especially an original concept. Well done on getting as much done as you did. I enjoyed reading the reports as I typed them. and the emails too - although was in a hurry, so mostly skimmed!

Great graphics, really unique idea, even started stressing me out just like a real job, well done. Only other thing I would say is add some constructive feedback that tells you when you are doing good, like "Hey good job on that report" or "thanks for responding so quickly", other than that, the tutorial was good and was a solid game overall. (5 stars on originality)

Love the concept! I kept thinking it would be nice to get a little more feedback in terms of am I doing what I'm supposed to be doing, but then I remembered that that's exactly what it feels like to work in an office. So it's basically perfect, is what I'm saying. Cheers!
