I can really appreciate the unique at style of hand drawn sprites! But I do agree that it felt somewhat hard to tell where I was actually going at any point I got killed several times but continued to persist, but then at some point the monster just teleported to my location and killed me once again. There were some interesting ideas like the QR code bit, so would have been cool to see those more fleshed out!

The visuals were charming, especially the graffiti and the HR request denied animation. It was frustrating getting stuck in a loop after dying, but it's not too hard to restart when that happens.

Neat little game with a fun visuals and a fun premise. I feel like if y'all spent some more time on this it could really shine! I will say I had a really hard time figuring out where I was going, what I was doing, and what anything meant. With enough trial and error I was able to figure out where to go more or less. Played until a copy machine somehow killed me through the wall, and kept killing me over and over and not letting me respawn. I think one hit kills with no checkpoints are a little much, Even giving the player 3 hits to "experiment" with what routes to take would make a world of difference. I feel a pop of color, or a trail or something to maybe guide the player would be a huge help too. Lots of stuff you could do with this! Good work!

Loved the art style and music!

Love the art style! Concept is really cool and I like the puns, although I couldn't get past the first area. I kept dying to the spooky goo lady, and I couldn't seem to make it through the door to the copy machine. I collected all the candy corn so not sure what I was missing. The QR code and inventory didn't seem to do anything.

Thanks for playing! The candy corn doesn't actually do anything (just due to time constraints), so you're right about that one. There are a few key items and rooms you need to collect to win the game, including a key to get into that room with the copy machine. Then you have to visit Gladys in HR

I'm so glad you said that, I actually had no idea there was another door in the elevator room! I came back and found all the little items, including the two door stoppers and the memo. I'm not sure but I think bringing the memo to HR got it denied which then unlocked the elevator? Still love the art style!! I also found out you can get out of bounds the skeleton closet by going through the wall on the right.  Did the door stoppers do anything? I thought I could maybe trap ghosts in but wasn't sure how to activate them. Also what was the QR code thing for?
