This game is very nice and it is surprising how good one become with a little practice.

The vibe and period feeling of the 50s got really nailed here!

simple but fun game, surprisingly gets hectic really quickly. Did a few shifts and enjoyed my time with it :D

This game was a lot of fun! I like the old-time music.

I played for a few shifts. At first I thought it would have me complete ~3 shifts and then there would be an end screen. But I guess it just keeps going forever? 😅

Great game. I initially had the same idea but did not have a good idea to make the call assignments. making them by street is great and giving it as text. I really enjoyed my shifts. Thanks for making the game.

This was fun to play. I thought your design, the switchboard, the blinking light and the overlays very well thought through. The tunes gave the right vibe and speed testing/ rating the players capability was a fun addition to it. Congrats on the game!

I really enjoyed the overall atmosphere and aesthetic—you did a great job creating a unique and immersive vibe. The switchboard-style gameplay is a very clever interpretation of the theme and felt fresh. At times things got a bit chaotic and the pace felt a little fast, which made it slightly hard to fully get comfortable with the mechanics at the beginning. But once it clicks, it becomes quite engaging. Overall, this is a very solid and polished jam entry with a lot of personality. Great work!

Well done. But quite chaotic. : D

I love your take on the same idea!

I really like the theme and atmosphere you created, and the complexity of the exchange! I would have liked to do the connections myself (tried to click and drag like a fool a couple of times), but considering the pace, I see why you did it this way.

All in all, I think this is very atmospheric and solid little game!

Excellent job, really loved the theme - i went from hopeless to exemplary :D. Good job!
