This was really fun and the mix of office and laser was very fun. Could see this happening in my office (someone shoots lasers out of his eye, just one of those things I guess). Got stuck on boss room, changing camera messed mouse pointer quite basdly, but still I got through. Amazing job
Wow this was really fun! played for so long that the music eventually cut out. Apart from that bug, it's a pretty fun to play game with amazing visuals and sounds.
Loved playing this. The whole concept is great and executed well with great music!
Great environment, I really like how there is all of these small details going on. I found the camera a bit buggy and it killed me a few times, but the gameplay was solid.
We almost went with an idea like this, and I'm glad we didn't because you did it so well! The aesthetic, music, and humor from NPCs are on POINT. Great job!
Now this is great fun! The concept definitely has legs to stand on, and the aesthetics is great, massive credits to both the sound and art people! That saxophone music really hits well!
The core mechanic of having a massive eye-laser leads to some creative puzzle situations, and you've laid out levels that clearly take advantage of it. However, not everything is exactly smooth - at the start of the level, your initial mouse position can doom an attempt, making some levels unbeatable until the 2nd try. There are also some issues with the camera, as not being able to see the whole level leads to puzzles being hard to piece together. The moving camera also has issues, especially when it jumps - I ended up frying some poor office worker several times because the camera jump re-positioned my eye beam right on top of them!
More levels, couple of bug fixes, and a camera rework later this jam project could turn into a real gem!
Great job! the game is very fun to play. Didn't expect it to be so puzzle-like.
If you have some time, please check and rate our game.
Thank you!
Looks like an action game but plays like a puzzle! Was surprised
