Cool concept, could be balanced a bit better but had fun !

Developer

Thank you! I will definitely work on balancing in the future.

Nice little game. The story is really fun and the concept perfectly fits the theme. I just found predicting when the next collegue would pass by a bit hard to predict.

Developer

Thank you! I will definitely work on balancing in the future.

I like the idea, and the creativity is the best, and even in this state is really fun. But the gameplay is not ok, sorry. It would be better to add some steps from left in order to check when a supervisor is going to appear. The email system doesn´t work either (only appeared once, I think (down-left side), and I played a lot). When you go to the next shift but get catched, the message is for the next shift again... Needs more polishing.

Thanks for playing! Glad you enjoyed it! Sadly, emails broke during development and I didn't have time to fix them. Of course, the balancing is something that was hard for me to gauge. Unfortunately, being a full-time college student and full-time worker I didn't have the time I had hoped for to work on this. Definitely not my proudest work.

The balancing was definitely a bit strange.  It was hard to gauge when a coworker would be coming by, but it was definitely a great time.

Developer

Yeah, I had thought about adding more of a grace period but ran out of time. Thanks for playing!

Great game! I was way too trilled to play video games during work. I didn't have to answer any emails though, but it didn't take away from the fun.  It seemed a bit difficult in the beggining but after a few wrongful termination (and murder) trials I got the hang of it.
