Hey, nice game! Feels like a casual game that turns into a horror scape room. Unexpected end. I've really appreciated the artwork and the gameflow. The time travell aproach trough the callendar is very cool!
Awesome game! quite hard for me..
Awesome game! quite hard for me..
Awesome game! Creative approach to main topic of the jam - didn't expect anyone to use it a horror game. Plus congrats for getting your game noticed outside the jam!
it was an amazing game but i did get stuck
Well made game, good story
I'm not a fan of puzzles but this game is awesome and the puzzle is well made,
the story is great, very interesting, and a bit scary
the visual is awesome and simple!
the sound effects at the right time make the difference!
Congrats!
This is amazing, got stuck at the end, but after reading the walkthough I did it. Man, this is absolutely awesome, I loved it. It needs a continuation, with more puzzles! Maybe do a game about the May 27th incident!
very good, i am stupid so i had to look up a walkthrough lol
haven't played it yet but love it.
Hey, played your game on stream. Check out my thoughts here https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1086568950?t=01h44m14s
My experience of playing "A Day in the Office" was quite amazing. Very intriguing story and excellent graphic design. I hope there will be more to come soon!
Very good game. It really feels complete, for a jam submission. Creepy story, good pixel art, very nice time mechanic, and simple yet efficient puzzles.
Good job :) !
This was really great! The story's pacing and the way it builds to a climax was done very well. Really enjoyed it!
This was AWESOME!
Loved everything in there man, didn't find any bug either.
You could definitely make something bigger out of this!
Yoo how can you think of such complex time manipulation mechanism. I loved it i even recorded a video for it will upload soon. really great game.
Legal, Top o jogo
5/5
Loved the horror vibes and the puzzles! I was always scared that the Clockhart was going to jumpscare me, lol. It was a very nice story for a jam :)
I found a bug when going back into his office once. It was as if I wanted to hand/interact with a <Null object ###>. It fixed itself once I went into the coworker area and back though.
Despite your warning I obviously clicked on the clock and got the game freezed, lol. But that's fine as I refreshed the page.
I'm not very used to point & click games tbh, and I think it kind of introduced me to the genre. I really enjoyed the game, the storytelling and how seeking little things here and there help us and give us hints.
A few issues/suggestions that came to my mind while playing:
That said, really well done! And thanks for this cool game!
Thanks! I originally did have a pixel art font but it was very hard to read for some reason, so I had to switch to a regular one. As for the aspect ratio, I experimented around to make the rooms look more horizontal which is why I chose something weird, but you are right that 16:9 is usually best. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
