Cool idea! I included it in my PowerPoint Jam compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :)

Oh, really, that one is a PowerPoint  game which is actually a presentation to be shown with projector at office, ahaha. So, I loved exploring the concept of business roleplay even not being able to play this way on my own.  To be honest, I can't decide if it needs other visual aesthetics or audio, just because it feels already enough for this type of interactive experience. Well, even counting lack of interest of mine towards economics and business world, I was able appreciating witty take and fresh game design approach there!
 
Really liked: possibility of real-life simulation - coffee break, speech interruption rule, setting

I'm not so sure: easy to get lost sometimes, hehe

A soundtrack (at least a suggested one) it's far from being a bad idea!

Thank you for rating it!

This game really suits the "party" aspect of the PowerPoint. Really well done!

Thank you for your feedback!

May I ask to elaborate on the "Story" part of your evaluation?

Submitted

The “story” part of my evaluation determines the story-derivative of the game, and since this is a Party Game, the “story” aspect is out of the question

Developer(+1)

That clears it out, thank you again!

This is honestly super interesting.
I don't get it though ^^'

The concept is quite different from a lot of the other submissions, which is great! And I understand the point - you're all roleplaying and such, each has their own goal. But it feels like it gets complex pretty quickly, the goals are not super clear. Perhaps that's intentional, just let people roll with it but.. I just don't really get it.

It doesn't help I don't have 5+ people around to give this a try right now :p but with how complicated it is, I'm not sure I'd want to propose it to a group, as I'd have no idea what to say or how to introduce it.

This is precisely the feedback I hope to get by joining the Jam, so thank you!

When you say "I'm not sure I'd want to propose it to a group, as I'd have no idea what to say or how to introduce it" you meant that you cannot pitch it effectevly to a group since you don't really get it, or you cannot picture how to play the game itself?

Submitted(+1)

A little bit of both, although with what I understand I think I could pitch it - it's mostly about knowing how to play everything.
If I want to propose this game to a couple of people, I want to be sure that I know what we have to do, so that we don't get stuck or keep going without knowing what's happening.
