This game does a good job pulling you into the game via a simple but appropriate narrative context. Really enjoyed it!

Hey there! Thought I'd try my hand at an unedited stream-of-consciousness review for this game. You can find my review embedded below.

Thanks for playing it! I indeed forgot about a reset button, though it *was* possible to kill the blue circle to reset the level, but this wasn't as obvious as I thought it was. Perhaps a quip from the manager about it would've been good (or just a reset button haha)

Wonderful, wonderful game! Everything about it is great! Clever puzzles, great dialogue, neat mechanics: what more could you want? If you decide to make a full game out of this, please let me know. I'd love to play it! I do, however, have a few suggestions. 

First, additional feedback when an enemy is destroyed might make solving the puzzles a bit more satisfying (not that it isn't already). Like maybe add some explosion particles, some more sound effects, and perhaps a bit of screen shake whenever the laser fires. I would also lock progressing the dialogue to one button, as I kept accidently scrolling, causing it to close unintentionally.  Lastly, and this is minor but important: a restart button. Killing yourself to restart the level certainly isn't ideal. That said, it did lead to me discovering the hilarious death dialogue, so that was a plus!

Thank you so much for the wonderful game! It absolutely made my day!

The levels are well thought out, and the answer is not always obvious. The writing reminds me of Deep Rock Galactic. Well done! We need more levels!

Nice work. It's a big shame there wasn't more levels, I was just getting into it!
I like the dialog system, and the story.

Best game I played so far this jam.

haha the commander comments made me love a lot! At some point I was just loosing to see them all. Also I like that  I can restart only by shooting myself. The mechanism is realy intersting. Nice little game, Good music and sound though out the whole game. I enjoyed it a lot

I enjoyed playing it. I liked the odd humor in the writing and the little jingle.
