  • Lol that was awesome. Even though the game was mechanically simple, the story moved the game along and was one quite fun to play through. I thought the stealth section was simple and fun, really reminded me of a pokemon dungeon which was great. I liked how there were some puzzle-y bits but you didn't force the player to perform really frustrating and hard to time movements. The coughing section was alot of fun, going through the office and making everyone sick ontop of the music was perfect. I like that you didn't have a fail state in this section, I don't think the plot twist would work very well to do it again and it'd lose its magic. I think overall you knew that it was a small little game and made it small, fun and enjoyable and I think that was really smart. If I had to point out some things that could be improved, I think the record scratch along with the harsh music change was a bit annoying when I messed up in the stealth section. Going from the chill music to a record scratch was pretty jarring. I think the movement could be a bit refined, I didn't get stuck anywhere but it did feel a bit floaty. Other than that, really enjoyed the game. Nice work. Oh and I forgot to mention, the dialogue with the boss was funny and well written!

Summarise your game!
Office Outbreak is a office themed story based experience about an average office employee trying to get a day off due to being sick

Please explain how your game fits the theme:
Rather than interpret weapon literally we chose to take it in the direction of biological warfare. Using the player as a weapon against the immune systems of his coworkers

Is there anything you'd like the judges to pay particular attention to?
This is our teams first ever game jam and first time ever making a game.
