Use of the limitation
By poking fun at the idea that it's "only" one life, according to out of touch management in big corporations. The characters die, but that just makes their replacements cheaper

Nice take on the limitation!

Thanks! Wanted to be both original but not too far-fetched

Submitted(+1)

Cool ! it got me addicted a bit. The presentation is well done. 

It's really satisfying when you increate the "impact" power up. 

Developer

Thanks! I really wanted to feel like you're breaking the game when buying the multiplier

Really amazing concept!

Developer

Thanks a lot!

Nice game, cool use of the limitation.

Developer

Thanks! I did get some help brainstorming on this :P

Everything about this just super nice :-) The sounds, especially the hilarious death sounds, but also all the little sounds and music are so satisfying. 

Also the discovery is great: How you learn to zoom out and see how big the world is: Fantastic

I think the biggest thing I was missing was buying auto miners. But you can take this very very far.

Please finish this game and put it on Steam. I'll be your first customer ;-) 

Developer

Thanks for the detailed feedback!

I'll definitely make sure to put time & effort into more tutorialization and QoL improvements, this jam has been great to gather feedback like this

Presentation is super clean and it's actually pretty addicting! Well done

Thanks a lot, it's my first time making pixel art and I'm not the best at art so going minimal is maybe more of a hack than an artistic choice ^^'

Super fun and addicting! Music and sound was great. Only minor negative is that some of the upgrades i.e. profit seemed way too OP

Developer

Thanks!

Profit feeling op was actually on purpose, only way I could think of making numbers really crazily go up 😅

The upgrades are more or less divided in tiers where it's really hard to improve more before buying the profit upgrade, or at least that's the design...

Fun game!

Developer

Thanks!

Nice gameplay loop, very addicting. I didn't really understand why my collectors died until a few tries. Overall, nice game. I liked it :)

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

Your subordinates die because you work them to the bones, but I should've made that one clearer.

I understood eventually but took me a restart (or two lol).
