unable to play on MacOS sadly
what happens when you try to play on OSX? I've managed to play it just fine locally.
Very original use of the theme. Nice art style too. Great entry.
The game both looks great and is super original in its execution. The only complaint that I have is that things never got too hectic (for me at least). Maybe 15 calls wasn't enough time to wait but the game felt like a waiting game much more than a hectic, scrambly switchboard operator game. Maybe some noise could've fixed that. In any case I did still enjoy it, and it looks really really clean.
Thank you for the feedback. I didn't get enough time to really tune the experience difficulty wise, but if I develop it further I'll keep your thoughts in mind :)
Nice game. I included it in my GMTK compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)
Wow! I actually really like games about phone switchboard operators!
Thank you! I hope I did the genre justice, even in this short example.
I'm playing on a macbook air and for some reason, the game won't open.
Strange. Is it a more recent M1 Mac, or older?
It is the 202 Macbook Air.
what happens when you try to run the game? I would expect it to give some kind of error.
I meant to type 2020. And also, no error messages at all.
I see. There's a possibility that it's being blocked by the Apple gatekeeper security system. If you try to run it, and then go to Settings -> Security and Privacy, it might have an "allow anyway" button available to click
Nice! reminded me of papers please. Great job ahi
thank you! That's ultimately where I was aiming. I had ideas for additional tasks to complicate things over time.
Fun game. I didn't get why some calls failed though.
the detection algorithms are a bit buggy, but calls may fail if they aren't answered fast enough, or things are done in the wrong order.
