Very unique game, I love the resemblance to a text editing software used at office. Solid design and execution. Good job!

In what way does your game fit the theme?
The game is a bullet hell game (literally). Gradually it will become difficult to keep track of enemies.
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
The game uses sounds and music from other sources which were not made during the jam window, the rest including code and graphics were made during the jam time.

I like the idea of shooting the letters. It's really good and UI is clean.
Hahaha, such an accurate representation of office life. But seriously it was a fun game which quickly became chaotic. The art and the UI is clean and fabulous, I really liked it. Thanks for sharing :)
Very polished and cute :) Maybe you can add some way to reward the player for hitting the letters in right order (I actually thought it would work this way before playing), so you'd have to snipe the right letters and change bullet types to switch between different words. Anyway, it was a great experience overall!
Also, looks like you've added some kind of smoothing to the mouse (to make stuff harder to hit I guess), but it gets kinda annoying at times.
Thanks a lot for playing and your feedback. My initial idea was to have a select or destroy mechanic where you shoot with left arrow to select the letter and shoot with right arrow to destroy the letter. That way you can complete the list in actual order. But I thought having different bullet types will confuse the player a bit more, so I scraped the earlier idea.
About the slow mouse movement, at first I snapped the player to mouse position but that felt janky and had some weird jerks so I added smooth follow mouse movement, but I guess it feels a bit unresponsive.
Nice entry! I really liked the tutorial part and the overal presentation of the game. The mouse movement felt a bit unresponsive and slow, but overal cool game!
haha nice one very interesting story and concept :D although i would like to not go to first level every time boss fires me
A very nice game. It looks good and plays well. The only problem I had was that the sound effects were a bit too loud.
Yea this is a very cool game, better concept than the average bullet hell for sure!
The game is interesting. It was a little confusing in the beggining, but I managed to understand it. The story is a great touch :))
