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

If (powerpoint were gamified)
From the game image I expected something like power point simulacra but the parts that provided some immersion seemed rather out of immersibility.
example:when my tablet pen on the pc gets misaligned i have to go through a process similar to "click on blue avoid red" and I imagine that if my pc got infected by the new skynet and i had to fix it by clicking here or over shuld took an interference similar to the one already present in Windows.
I like the idea that you would have to wallow in a very deep presentation full of developer life stories to make progress in the game (but really shouldn't even be there) so that in the end you will be greeted with a 'yeah'. Games' looks like me when I present work in college.
Final grade 8/10
would play again to confuse people with the part of the various variables and fake my intelligence

B*thc Named BeckyI liked the theme and the concept, but I felt the content itself was a bit disappointing. I think the clues could have been better worked into the main text so I would have to read it and comprehend the narrative instead of just disinterestedly clicking through slides waiting for something to fly onto the screen. Similarly, there could have been a lot better clues for the puzzle instead of just a math quiz. What was the name of your first game? On what day did you meet with your boss? Maybe something from the file's metadata to really sell the hacking bit?

Death by Powerpoint!!1!Thanks for your feedback! Fair points :) I was a bit afraid hiding info inside of text would make people miss it, but perhaps I could've done something inbetween.
I used numbers for variables as I thought that'd be the easiest to convey, also to non-programmers, how to make the statements correct. I'm not sure how I feel about making it a quiz :p it somewhat makes sense if its a security question, but it feels less like fixing a set of bugs.
Anyway thanks a lot ^^ good to know what you think
So, truly presentation and a game and, most important, that kind of personal story which makes you relate a lot. "Data-hack" vibes problem solving algorithm gameplay, while being extremely forgiving does make a good sense there, and I fully enjoyed the style author throws their audience into, such details like animated intro/outro, needed data scattered across log/portfolio/whatever you call it.
Fix: gameplay diversion, unified interface, thought share, well-balanced action segments
Error: I'm not sure If I have to nitpick anywhere? maybe I was expecting even more of everything, ahaha!

Clarie's SongIt's games like these that always blows my interest. This game shows the life of a certain PowerPoint file being "hacked" and finding ways to fix it is really amazing. Great job!
(PS: nice rick roll there)
