where did the last half hour of my life go

Got the "Papers Please!" vibe. Had fun reading through the things I sign, yeah I like reading! Nice touch on the strategy aspect and the witty text. Seems polished enough and nicely packaged, so to say. It doesn't seem rushed or have any noticeable flaws/bugs etc keeping it flowing smoothly. BGM is apt and goes well with the monotonous-work-like gameplay. Gets repetitive soon though. After day 7, I expected some more different "edicts" to sign but I guess stock market investments on "time" was not a bottomless pit for more and more additions to the game ;-) Also, clear explanations on how-to-play through text and visuals on were charming.

I am a master of logistics, until day 4, tops. I like this game haha.

This is such a creative idea! Love it! Might be worth to expand on the concept a bit!

Thank you! I'd love to expand on it - of course, that was planned in development too, but time ran out :P I'm glad you liked it though!

My thoughts after playing your game:

I didn't see how the game fits into the theme.

Good

  • Great art style
  • Good sound feedback
  • Good soundtrack
  • Fun playground
  • Snappy UI 👍

Area of improvement

  • The text on the contracts is hardly visible, which makes me not want to read it and guess-swipe them, defeating the game's purpose.
  • It gets boring after a few minutes.
  • Needs more content

Thanks for the comment! The idea for the theme was you're usually playing as some adventurer, in some action packed fight against the final boss - but in this case, you're playing as the final boss, doing admin work instead. I can see that it might need to be a bit clearer, though! And that's a good point on the content amount, there's not really too much to do. I had more planned, but time ran out, as it always does! It'd be great if there was more to do. Thank you for the feedback!

I think this game works really well. It's a simple game, but it works as it's intended to. I guess after a few paper, you do get a bit bored since you have complete freedom to do anything without consequence or rewards (money, but it seems meaningless).
Overall love the art and the simplicity!
