At first, I was so bad at this... but it made me laugh! It looks pretty, sounds nice, and the gameplay is engaging and funny. I just have to admit that I won't be able to play it for too long because it becomes a bit frustrating and boring after a while. But as a comical showcase, it's ideal.

It looked good and moved well but the action keys were terrible to use. why not chose a single key? it would have been easier to use the mouse alone.

This was a cool idea but I couldn't figure out how to stamp the paper, nothing seemed to work. Enjoyed it still though!

Very interesting game but I don't have the patience to be as the best employee like this horse.

This was a pretty unique game! I really enjoyed for what was here, The controls where very unintuitive. Found myself using my entire desk space to move my mouse enough to move the horse arm, some things I would change to help with playability is upping the mouse sensitivity or at least an option to up it, The rotation was a bit hard as there just wasn’t enough rotation, which being a horse is understandable. I found myself trying to use WASD to move the horse arm more then the mouse because that felt more natural. and it was a little annoying to constantly use shift to move up and down

overall for only a week its super impressive and really enjoyed it! i really love the art style and the music used was calming. your use of sound effects really added to the ambience of the office.

Nice style, feels like could be a fun little VR game.

Having to spam shift to go up and down is a bit annoying, and not having enough articulation to rotate forward/back is slightly tedious, but you in fact a horse which would make some sense.

While we were making the game we thought the same thing, that in VR it had to be a lot of fun to play. Thank you for playing our game!!

I finally got to live the life I've always wanted, being an office horse addicted to painkillers, this was so much fun!

This is fantastic, I loved it! I created something very similar to this game a few jams ago myself so I appreciate the thought that went into making the arm turn and pick up stuff. I originally had remade all the mechanics of surgeon simulator with the fingers but that turned into a physics nightmare with each finger so I'm glad you also took the easier approach as well. I couldn't figure out how to actually stamp the papers, so I just resorted to smashing stuff around on the desk and watching things fly, it was very satisfying. Playing in the browser doesn't have sound so I downloaded it and it worked just fine. If you want to check out my previous jam game that was similar to yours you can see that here: https://kokutouchichi.itch.io/boocake-cafe

That wasn't my entry for this jam though, for this jam it should appear below this message. 

Fun game!

We are glad you liked our game! Yes, the game you did has a similarity with ours, it must be because great minds think alike ;)

Btw I love that shader! Such a great choice!

This game is awesome. If you gonna play this game, make sure you download it to play it as audio didn't work in browser for me. I think this might be because they used Audio mixer for the audio which I don't think is supported by browsers. Having the audio really brought the experience together, having sounds when objects clink around and such.

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much for your comment! It's a pity it can't be played in full on the web, in other jams we have participated in the sound worked perfect. Nevertheless, we're really glad you liked it!

Super cool game, the controls started to make me a little dizzy though, since I had to constantly bob up and down.

Developer(+1)

We're sorry you got dizzy playing, but we appreciate that you took the time to do it!!!
