Pretty  good game enjoyed it but not for too long. The voice acting was my favorite part, but you should add more things in the game to make more interesting because the repetitive tasks become boring after a while. You did some great work and I would really like to see future updates of this game.

Submitted

Nice idea,  Especially the voices. the game gets really difficult for me because of the new rules, they are confusing to me because it adds more really fast,

Submitted

It was quite chaotic indeed! 

Submitted

I like the idea and also the graphics are nice!

albeit im terrible at this game i've gotta say i defo love it especially the telephone mechanic - and also i hear you didn't use unity's UI system - props to you dude

Not only didnt we use unitys ui system, we didn’t use unity at all :D

We used MonoGame, a wrapper around Microsofts XNA, which is a fancy opengl wrapper with QoL resource loading and managing.

We linked the source code on the game page if you’re interested.

XNA! last time i heard that i was trying to succesfully build a 2011 onset detection software haha i never knew there were still  stuff using it - im definetly intruiged by it but (and ironically i used to absolutely hate OOP programming)  last time  i tryed non-OOP (love2d) i wasn't very good at it and progress was slow - but i will definetly check out the source code thankyou for providing it

Cool game, and nice idea. When the phone started calling I thaught I'm playing FNAF for a second lol. Voice acting was great, overall it was a pretty nice game. And also kudos for the guy who coded it all using C# with Unity engine, without using the unity UI editor. You're a madman!

the fact that is fully voiced shock me

I had the main story line written out by tuesday with most of the dialogue done by wednesday. Then I had a friend come over to record betty, sent a message to the guy who made the music that he could record vlad, recruited another friend to do two of the misc. voice lines, Noctus Rex spoke Mike and I did all the other voices. All in all, writing dialogue and recording it all took about 5-8 hours

It would be easier if you make it html game!! But great game tho!! 

The framework we were using doesn’t allow for web games to be made.

At the first day of work at my new job, I forgot to listen to my boss about sorting documents, and I end up being ouszhgoushorgnldjszrhgsod8rughodrg

This was a great game, gives me jackbox vibes for some reason. It felt like a fusion between bomb corp and a pilotredsun video. I loved the confusing chaos of sorting all the files. The audio was great and the graphics were really fun.  It was really nice that you could double-check the instructions because the introduction was great, but as soon as the game started I almost immediately forgot everything I was told lol.


Suggestions:

-Make the trash more obvious with a trash symbol because my top-secret files were piling up and I didn't instinctively know where to throw them at first

-Allow the player to click out of "file view" I kept clicking off the file to escape the zoomed-in view but that's not how it works obviously. I feel like clicking off the file is more intuitive since all other controls are click-based. The escape key works fine though.

-spice up the files with some better font/ handwriting style lettering. The style of the rest of the game is great, but the text felt out of place. The juxtaposition is funny, but you could also have some fun with weird fonts and whatnot.


This comment is really nitpicky because I wanted to give good feedback, but I did really love this game. Super fun, keep up the great work!

Submitted

Nice work, love the graphic

Submitted

Really intense game, great stuff.

Submitted

Great game! really liked it! :D

The game is great and I had fun, voice acting sounds really satisfying, but on the third day there was a bug that I could not interact with the paper but can interact with sticker.

Anyway game is cool!
