Such a smart and unique take on the theme! Finally I get to play as the AI Director in L4D haha. Really great submission! I like that there were 2 modes to try out too!

Haha thanks for the comment, the L4D Director was literally my main inspiration for this jam!

There was originally a third mode with six possible entrances, but was scrapped for time. Luckily the background remains as the icon for the game's page.

I enjoyed it. Very amazing what your team was able to create for this jam. The happiness bar was a really cool idea where you are playing for a goal outside of the 'game'. Took me a second to realize that killing them also made them 'quit'. Cool game and great idea for the theme.

This change of perspective is really cool! I really like when we help the AI to do it's job. Well done!

This is such a unique idea! Even just reading the itch page made me want to try it, the concept is genius!

I think there's a lot that could be added to make the game shine, for example:

More things to do as the AI, like setting up auto-spawners, or being able to spawn special evens that raise happiness but are harder, etc (these are just ideas but it feels like it could be fun to have more things to do)

Thank you! We barely had time to get the basic game working, but more immersive gameplay would have been pretty cool.

Very interesting idea. Could be improved with some visual effects

Very fun game with a unique concept, liked it very much!

The player AI sometimes had problems when it kept shooting at an empty direction while attacked from others, but other than that the game worked smoothly! Good job!
