- Extremely well done! The varied types of gameplay made this a really fun experience that kept my interest throughout. The story was well written and had some genuinely funny jokes in it. The art was pretty good, though I wish it had a bit more of a consistent color scheme. Most of the tasks you needed to do made sense, but a couple of them were a little confusing due to being vague (EG, there was a post I downvoted because it said something like "This is how PKC treats their 10+ year veterans" because I thought it was an expose when it was actually a puff piece). I thought the music was fitting though the main loop did get a little old after hearing it for so long. Overall, this is an extremely solid entry, and all of my criticisms are pretty much just nitpicks. Great job!
- Excellent game ! I love the "paper please" vibe of working for someone you kind of don't like have to think fast if something is good or bad. I loved the photophop mini games and the re-tweeks, looking for the unpopular opinion. I liked the difficulty curve how it was easy at first to get into the game and got harder at the end. The final paycheck email was funny haha. My only nit picking would be the captcha about finding an american state, it is not really common knowledge for anybody who doesnt live in the US. Well polished game. Good job.

Good shit and in my HIPSTER engine too
Reminds me a lot of pf "Papers, Please". Which is a good thing, I love that game. You guys pulled off this style so well, and I wasn't expecting anything like this from a game jam. The art looks great, the music is great and fits the game perfectly, the gameplay is fun, the story behind it is interesting and well made. Great job guys!
Really interesting game and loved the multiple unique mechanics. I’m really impressed that you were able to put this together for a jam.
Man, you gotta make this into a full game!
I don't usually recommend games submitted to a game jam to my friends, but I had to after playing PR Protector. This is seriously one of the funniest games I've played, period. This game has some of the wittiest jokes I've seen in a while and spoiling them would be a disservice to the clever writing. The gameplay is a mixture between Warioware and Papers Please that's as unique as it is fun.
The difficulty scale and length are my only criticisms (as well as a fullscreen bug that another user reported), but I still had a blast playing the game in its current state. Do yourself a favor and play this game.
Whew this was stressful (in a good way). Love the concept, looks crisp, and the sound design is spot on. Full screeen worked for me, but I would also suggest a different mini game to the States one. More like the football one. But that is a great way to incorporate minigames, I have to say.
(Sorry for just copying the comment from the game page, but this links my game too)
Pretty neat game! I loved the photo editing minigame. I think the difficulty picked up too fast though.
Amazing game! I love how creative the minigames are and the game has an unbelievable amount of content and text. It's so polished! Had to restart once on day 5 but then I played to the end.
I really enjoied this game.
this game is cool and fun to play, I r8 it an 8/8 m8
