Everything about this game is absolutely astonishing! The concept is very interesting and extremely well done and polished. The art and audio were also amazing! This game is definitely making it into the top 100 at least.

This game is incredible. Besides the core concept, there are so many smaller things that make this game be continuously interesting, like sometimes you have to look at the directory, managing the cords, priority calls, etc. And on top of all that the artwork and sound design are fantastic.

The cherry on top is the fact high scores are shared. Honestly can't think of anything I'd improve!

Really cool concept and amazing presentation! I ended up with a score of 384. Being able to quickly reset the wires was a great touch. Really impressive stuff.

Nice game! The persistent high scores is a nice touch!

One problem was when someone wanted to be on 2 different calls at the same time!

Thanks so much! There's a little hold button hiding over on the side that can help you with those double queues ; ) 

We ran out of time to include call holding in the tutorial :' )

Nice concept !

I really appreciate the overall quality of the game ! From design, music, little animations and menu, this is well done !
It become hard pretty fast though. Once the tutorial done, you enter directly in the big game ^^

What a great idea! Love the concept and the gameplay! Nice animation and sound and everything!

Nice game! I got a bug where the wires would detach from the plugs, but overall it was fun! Very original and looked lovely.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback, we haven't seen that one yet, was it the web version or the download?

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for playan!

This is a really nice game! All of it just fits together really well, lots of very neat QOL things. Very hectic and hard to manage, but that makes it fun! The fact that you don't always have to look things up is a very nice addition. Really solid!

A person on hold can show up multiple times and the first in queue has priority? I tried skipping some calls but it did not work out.

Developer(+2)

I'm really glad you enjoyed it! There's a few things that can happen that we'd probably like not to, that's just how game jams go unfortunately :P

We're planning to make some changes after the review period and I've added it to the tracker.

Thanks for the feedback :)

Wow, nice animation when jack plugs in/out! Tough and funny game, resembles me of "Papers, Please" where you have to be multitaskish :D

Submitted(+3)

Damn this was tough! The game is really good, and the presentation is super satisfying!

Submitted(+3)

Wow moving the plugs and cable is so satisfying.  Amazing job with the cable movement and plug animations!! Congrats on submitting a super neat game to the jam~ please check out mine when you have time :D

Amazing job, the crowd goes wild! It's such a compelling experience, but it ramps up a bit too quickly really get into a flow state.

It makes me wonder if the mouse is actually the most tedious part of the game, and perhaps linking all the holes with key commands (directory on enter) would make it an easier to use + more fast paced and interesting experience. 

Developer(+2)

Thanks so much for the feedback!

Key commands to link cables was something that we had talked about, but ran out of time for during the jam. Maybe in V2? ;)

This is amazing! I love the concept and the presentation.  The art, sounds and music are all a great fit.  Would love to see the concept executed on further.  Congrats on a successful jam :D
