Game description
_______________________________________________________________________
GitHub Repository: https://github.com/AlexPS208/Do_you_wanna_job
The game is open-source, allowing you to dive into the code, modify it, and even add your own spin to its surreal universe.
_______________________________________________________________________
"Do You Wanna Job?" is a surreal and darkly humorous interactive experience where players navigate a bizarre interview process at a mysterious corporation. Tasked with answering unsettling and cryptic questions from eccentric managers, you must maintain your composure, balance your "stress bar," and unravel the eerie secrets behind the company’s true purpose: the creation and sale of "secrets" to the highest bidder.
The game’s atmosphere blends unsettling horror with absurd comedy, creating a unique tension as you face increasingly bizarre challenges. Hidden within the experience is a playful nod to classic gaming culture—a cheat code, HESOYAM, which restores your "lives" and provides a momentary reprieve in this intense psychological test. Will you survive the interview and uncover the truth, or will you become just another secret in their archives?
Theme interpretation
The theme inspired us to explore new ideas and push our creativity. This is our debut in gamedev, and through this experience, we've grown and learned so much!
Wildcards used (optional)

I really enjoyed this one. Great work all around!
Great work on this! The visuals and audio were really good for setting the mood. I was impressed that you had the time to have distinct art for each room/character. The creepy vibe came across really well too! Great work! Really want to know more about those “true events” that inspired this haha!
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for taking the time to play the game!
Fantastic artwork had a bunch of fun with it. Also a really cool story and a fun premise of trying to figure out the right thing to say. I enjoyed it a lot. The overall vibe and creepiness was great and I the creepy music and voices were a real treat. I love the 2D-3D vibe it adds a lot. It feels like every inch of the offices and characters was so carefully detailed. I did have to use the cheat code to get to the end as it was a bit hard but it felt like it could have been fair. I also like all the twists and reversals, you rarely get that in VN style game.
Glad you enjoyed it!❤️
Really fun and interesting concept, different characters were fun to interact with and the music and atmosphere fit well. Good Job!
Thank you very much!❤️
Great graphics and concept. Reminds me far too much of real life! :-)
P.S. This game was written in blood and inspired by true events...🌝
First off, the visuals were fantastic. Secondly, I DIDN'T NEED A CHEAT CODE GOD DAMMIT; but the temptation was too strong...
The writing sound got a bit repetitive, maybe some more variation to it or more randomization of the pitch or something. The music was nice and set the tone well.
I would have liked to been able to skip the writing sequence (especially when redoing a level after losing). A common control scheme I like is when the user presses the button to go to the next message but the dialogue is still being written out, you just instantly write out all the dialogue instead. It would make replaying a level a lot nicer since I can work back to where I was easier.
I liked the character designs and how each had their own unique personality that, seemed, to affect what types of answers they'd accept. The last guy with the face changing when the hands on his shoulder left and returned was a really cool design.
Very cool game.
Curious why the calendar was in 2020.
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! After the jam results are announced, we plan to fix all the bugs, implement the features we couldn't complete in time—including the one you mentioned—and possibly add some content we had to cut early on. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR COMMENT!
P.S. The 2020 calendar is a secret
