I really like your game! There was a good choice of audio, and the art was aesthetically pleasing! The hectic game was fun to play. There is much potential in this game! Congrats on winning the GMTK game jam!

Developer

Thank you so much, it's wild to me that we won :O

I really like this one, it could honestly be a full-fledged game in its current state (a small one, mind you, but it seriously seems fairly feature-complete even as it is)! The choice of music and the effect of it speeding up the more documents pile on your desk is great, I always like that kind of sound design. The gameplay is the kind of "mundane made marvellous" style that I really enjoy and is honestly what caught my eyes on to the game to begin with. Speaking of catching eyes, I also really like the characters' art style. Overall, it's just a really great game, so nice work! :D

Very.... stressfull :'p but in a good way. I like the presentation here, though the game stoped working on the 4th level :/

Developer

Oh no! What happened :(

A really well polished, cleverly designed game. The core mechanic was interesting and just varied enough to keep adding challenge, although by the end I made it through each level by just stuffing everything in the recycling bins and hoping to ignore the problems until tomorrow - was that a metaphor for reality, or just lucky?

Really enjoyable game, well done :)

Developer

That strategy works! But we made it so that you can't get a top score by doing that :)

Thanks for playing

The game feels well polished and clean, great fun idea too, I loved the art the fact you added the demon's dialogue even tho you didn't have to, but it added a lot. Great game overall! 

Developer

Glad you liked it! We felt like the dialogue really played to the loss of control.

This game is awesome. Before day 2 every thing was fine but after that.... However I liked the idea of introducing new mechanics like surveys and bins. The art is amazing!

Developer

Thank you!
