Great portrayal of bureaucratic torment and the fake pleasantness of the managers. The old-timey computers are a nice touch, since some modern offices still use those due to 'cost'. It was interesting to think of what the 'outside' of this hellscape looked like, even though the protagonist will never experience it, and about how differently time feels at work.

Funny AND Horrifying. The visuals really add to the presentation here!

Developer

Thank you :D

Ok, this was pretty interesting. I really like how some of the outcomes played out, as it was very entertaining to see Hell portrayed in such a mundane fashion. I do wish that there were additional routes based on your choices. Aside from that, great job!

Thank you!! Yeah I plan an update after the jam! Only had time to put this together under 30 hours, so...  more to come later:))

You’re very welcome! I’m looking forward to playing the post jam updated version!

A fun story! The aggressively office-core aesthetic really complements the narrative. Could maybe have a few more options and narrative strands to explore.

Loved this one. The writing is great, you practically feel sitting there yourself (played it at work, so I did in a way).

I also love that the computer actually has the texts on the display.

Developer

Thank you!! :D I'm happy to hear you liked it so far! I tried to put it together visually, as much as time allowed me. :)

Developer

Love the aesthetics and the concept.  You really managed to find photographs that screamed "coworkers from hell" XD Would love an extended version. 

Developer

Thank you :D Yeah I'm writing the extended version now - will update the file on itch once the jam officially over :)

Shout out office hellscapes! Shout out the title that is so satisfying to my brain and makes me laugh every time I see it!

Developer

Thank you :D

I really enjoyed the design, survivng pointless buerocracy really is true resilience. (Printers and scanners are my No.1 enemy)

Developer(+1)

Thank you :) Yeah those machines are truly testing my resilience level especially in a not-too-modern environment (I will update it after the jam, to add more to the story:)

I really enjoyed the aesthetics and the options. Having the UI also in the computer's screen was a nice touch!
