How does your game apply the limitation (and optionally, the theme)?
The player is on the edge of death and if it once, the player will die. There is a boss bar that goes down when you do nothing and the goal of the game is to not get fired by him
Team Size
Solo (1)
What main engine/tool/language did you use to construct the game?
Construct 3

The dragging mechanics is cool. The ghosts appearing out of nowhere always scared me. These big-headed chars remind me of the ones in "the evolution of trust". I feel I don't have the skills for this, it is a bit unfair, which is ok, I am just that bad of player tho. Perhaps I would add more ballance, using the same chars which are pretty cool

Cave PeopleHello Everyone, I would all like to say thank you for all your feedback, It is truly appreciated. When the Jam ends I will upload a new build of the game that makes the hitboxes more lenient, changed the curser to black so it is easier to see it, and makes it so you won't die when an enemy spawns on top of you. I hope you all had fun with this jam!
I watched the video and I thank you for your input. I definitely agree on the spawning enemies with no warning when spawning is very cheep and unfair. After the game jam I would like to quickly edit some kind of animation showing when one will spawn and move the first spawner farther from the player. Thanks so much for the feedback!
I really like the graphics and sounds of this, but there is one thing that really annoys me! The crosshair is basically invisible
Maybe it's the contrast or the size? It's just very hard to see where I'm shooting.
Apart from that I had a lot of fun!

Five Nights at Freddy's NESnice game, i like how you need to shoot all the ghost and how hard is it (at least for me)
here are some critics/bugs:
- when you put an object near the player, the player will glitch a bit and start having a crazy velocity
- i think the spawn of the ghosts is a little to close to the player
- i suggest to make the run instantly instead of velocity that auments every time (since 2 or 3 slice of stamina get used when you basically are still walking)
but overall, it's a pretty nice game, it fits the limitation and the theme, and the colors were nice!

Mr. Boss vs the MansnatchersNice job, fun little game! The boss is a real jerk but...who would want to quit a job where you protect tree's from ghost? That's a dream job! :)

Assistant to the Regional MonsterCongrats on publishing a game! I've died several times trying to understand why and I realized that things was happening off camera as soon as I spawned, and I had no way to save the tree cuz I wasn't able to reach it on time.
I get the idea, the game works, but there are a lot of little thing to improve to make it enjoyable in my opinion (such as the overall art, the audio balance (shots are super loud), the core mechanics that are actually kinda random and sometimes unfair, etc).
Despite of that, it's still a cool thing to actually finish a game project and to submit it on time (especially if it works, which is the case here) so well done!

Deliver More!!!Great job finishing up a game! I thought the core idea and mechanics were really neat and you executed them well. I thought it was really neat that the tutorial was a mini version of the level that you could mess around in! Having only one health made the game really tough at points, and I would've loved to have seen a high score screen when I died. Overall solid job, congrats on finishing the jam!

Warehouse BossGame was fun, I really enjoyed moving blocks around and moving the character at hyper speeds. The particle effects when the bullets hit a rock or something are awesome! Was there an ending to the game? I couldn't really tell if I was making progress towards any goal. I gave the game about 8 runs, 3 of them I died when an enemy spawned on top of me. Great Job!
