A brief about Reject This Game
Well, I like this artstyle for jams.
At first, i started thinking of some kind of top down shooter where you had to have less bullets to increase their size
I started coding it, but when i got to add the enemies, I started getting anxious about them being dumb, or being difficult to balance in such a short time.
Once I got over it, started thinking of some mechanic that could fit the new theme.
I played sum among us w da boys. Well, I actually didn't. I don't have any friends.
I remembered the feeling of overwhealm after repeating something many times. And among us' got dat.
I want you to feel unconfortable and disturbed.
and that was the first approach.
It's set on my other game's universe The Dogsanity Abusive Experience #LD46 by blackmoodgames (itch.io)
And it will be better balanced, i swear. (lol)

Core of the game
Main Loop
* Management of 3 variables (Health , Anxiety, Self Awareness)
Some might say that tycoons aren't that fun. this might or might not be a tycoon game; it has a more survivalistic theme in it, but crap, i like playing stuff i made even if they're so bad xD
* Finish 4-wire circuit boards to get a dream job
Deliver a good performance assembling boxes that control people's mind.
YES I WANT TO MAKE BOARDS PLS
Oooor...
Quit the game without actually quitting. We both win. There are 4 paths to the end.
* Get compliments from your future bosses !
Broken decition
You can actually do nothing and die. and it's great.
The choise of not accepting the job is yours all the time. If you feel unconfortable, you can stop whenever you want. Just reject every circuit and you will be banned from the job. city.. err... country.
Balancing
Today I wrote the numbers for the game, so if anyone can test it out and give some feedback about dificultly, it would be awesome!
The stats are listed in the page of the game ( Reject This Game - Blackthornprod GAME JAM #3 by blackmoodgames (itch.io) )
So, it's 5 am now.
