Arts are very cute, and i love they keep asking to fire people because can use AI to replace, 10/10

Very good ! The concept is very cool and fun !

Even if I got soft lock by hiring too much, having no money left,  and not be able to follow sharks orders xD

I love the art style and the vibe ! (gosh, that's so mean, you can fire people before paying them x) )
Congrats for creating this game on Godot ! ♥

I thought that only devs were needed to make a game, but then I got stuck with the mission... ^^' 

On the other hand, for my second game I managed to fill all the gauges above 150 but I only got a Fishycritic score of 60, I didn't really understand why? 

Very original idea, your game is a lot of fun and I really like your humour.
It’s a great game, congratulations !

OMG! The game from one of my favourite indie gamedev's!  Good job! And welcome to the Godot family :)

This is great! A perfect match between a fun concept and some delightful art. The music fits so well, as the sound effects. It's juicy and finely polished. A very fun submission.

Gorgeous presentation. I love the dialogue and the sharkholders. Really nicely polished. Fun to play through from all the personality in this game.

"Damn this business is too easy!"  => Only when you have 10ish employees well payed and you don't follow these SharkHolders Orders !

fun and nice looking game! trying to recover the management errors by hiring new programmers after i was told to fire the last ones seems relatable. the art is also really cool.

it's really pleasant to see the final version of the game after playing the test version this afternoon!
