I loved this. I think it's amazing that the horror takes place in an office and I love the lines that the manager screams when he's chasing the player. I also like the look of the manager, too. I think he might be the biggest jumpscare in the game. I'd say the only critique I have is that the maze is very big, and I think there should be something to help the player figure out where they are on the map. I started having trouble once the lights went out, and having something to tell me where I was would have been a big help.

Very nice. The low poly but still realistic style creeped me the hell out, good job!

I loved this! Always down for some surrealist horror. Thought it was executed really well, loved using an office space as a maze and the middle-managers as enemies. Won't give away the bananas ending but thought that was great too!

Did have quite a lot of screen tearing, and while I loved the dreamy soundtrack I think the sound overall could've been a little more polished, but I'm nit-picking really, I loved it!


Great work
