Fun little game, I like the absurdity of it! The control guide faded a bit too early and I couldn't throw molotov cocktails for some reason. Also, the differing pixel sizes made the game look a little all over the place. Other than that, it's good. Nice work!

Lol, great interpretation of the theme!! With the general derangement and difficulty this feels like a game I would make for my friends. I don't have much to say but I'm a huge fan!!!

Hah! yeah I am a early 90's kid so making light-hearted offensive takes on subjects is in my blood. I almost feel some ideas get too tame nowadays and really try not to hurt anyone's feelings to the point that it kills the fun of the video game. When you said that it reminded you of games you would make for you friends, it occurred to me that is the exactly what I think a lot of games are missing these days is that idea of generating conversation amongst friends. And usually generating those conversations don't revolve around the mundane, they usually revolve around one of your friends doing something wacky or silly, and you reacting to it. video games studios need to tap into more of that and stop taking themselves so seriously imo. Anyways, rant over, glad you enjoyed the game :D

I love the idea, and the representation of today's society, this game really shows what humanity has become, I would love to get more explanation behind the lore of the game, why has humanity fallen and came to this reality, are the trees some kind of mutant aliens ? Would love to get a sequel to this game and know what communism has become. This game really depicts today's society and I love it, keep building games like this. 

I will support you until the end. If you have 100,000 supporters, I'm among them. If you have 1 supporter, it's me. If the world is against you, then I am against the world. And if you no longer have any allies, then I'm dead.

Thank you for existing man, truly 😆

AWESOME GAME!!! Dude it was perfect, the running trees, the general non-coherence, and the hardness ahhh insane. If only you had a bit more time to fix some collision bugs. I think you should have also left the controls text 5 seconds more and changed the RMB for the molotov to CTRL because it's what seemed to have worked for me, loved that game, have a nice day!

The game is fun, and the idea is great! However I found it too difficult. I don’t know if it’s my fault but I wasn’t able to use the molotov, so the trees killed me before I could create new offices (That is not a sentence you’d find me say anywhere else 😂).

Yeah I do have a tendency to balance things extremely hard when I am on a tight deadline hah. If I made the controls a little more precise it might not be such an issue. I did want it to be difficult because the game never ends, its a high score game. I am curious if anyone will get a good score given the difficulty.
