This is actually what my computer looks like

The charm is wild, I genuinely laughed playing this. Would love to see this expanded into a full virtual OS with different sites!

Good game. The ads are really funny, the game play is quick and hectic. I think the boss should have a bit less health though. Had to get out the autoclicker for this one.

Submitted

I like to think I beat it on hard mode because my extra wide monitor meant ads popped up well outside of the in-game monitor boundary. Pro gamer here. I had a blast with this one on stream. I like how much you left for the player to discover. A nice reward for beating the game would be to go through the image library for the ads. I wanted to see and read them all, but I also didn't want to lose! Great entry.

Very clever idea! I managed to beat it after a couple attempts, had to bring back up my osu skills from way back when I played it. I thought the lag was annoying but in a good way, I could tell it was purposeful with the relentlessness of the ads. Loved it!

Submitted

Really cool idea. I got close, but it was a bit to hard for me. Reading the comments, I see now that the lag was intentional. That's a really interesting idea! Nice work!

Aaaaw :( , now seeing you playing I realized all the problems. I made it too hardcore, maybe only an OSU player might beat it. The development was really rushed, not all ideas became a reality and there was not much time for playtesting, sorry about that :(

But your adblocker idea was really cool and sure spiked some other ideas in my head. I might revisit this concept in the future.

Thank you so much for taking the time to record your gameplay and thank you for your feedback, truly appreciated!

OMG BAD BOSS NEVER LETS ME WATCH THE VIDEO PC CRASHES PIRACY BAD!


Great usage of the pop-ups, and really liked the "papers please" warning system at the bottom. Took me a couple of playthroughs to notice the evil boss eye. Sexy Juan kept me from winning...

This was super fun, I struggled a bit at first, got close to completing it, but didn't manage to in the end! Had a bit of lag when all the popups came up, got to a point where I couldn't click any pop-ups at all unfortunately. Great job though, and I love the art style as well!

Developer

Thank you for playing! 

The lag is an intentional part of the game. If the boss displays a pink "pause" icon in the eyes it will begin to lag your "pc". The amount of lag suffered is related to the amount of viruses you currently have on your pc. If its clean it won't do anything to you. 

If you reached that point tough means that you got really far in the boss battle so congrats on that!

Submitted

Super cool idea! I love all the popups and having to click on the video to damage the boss, But in the end it was a bit too difficult, I couldnt beat it after many tries. But it was still a pretty cool game! 

Submitted

Couldn't beat it as well but the idea was nice and really funny xD Well done !

Submitted

fun idea! I couldn't beat it, I'm assuming I just have to turn off all the popups and keep pressing play. 

Submitted

This was a very different take on a boss fight and I thought it was great!  The music choice was also excellent.

Submitted

Really interesting concept.  The use of the eyes was a really cool touch.  Did get quite challenging near the end.  Haven't managed to beat it just yet.  Gonna have to try my hand at it again once I rank everything.  Nice work!

Submitted

I couldn't make it, too many pop ups. This was fun and challenging.
