Omg very cool texture and also i crashed your computer go and fix it haha
by the way nice game check out mine too
thank you
Really cool idea! You pretty much made a puzzle game into a speedrunning game and somehow it worked out really well LOL. Nice job!
Thanks! Never really thought of it that way but I can definitely see what you mean lol
It's fun figuring out how to crash a computer! Crashed the comp in 18 seconds
Happy to hear you liked the game! That’s not a bad time, best time I got without bugs was about 7 seconds, but you REALLY need to know how the game works to get that fast :D
It was mostly observing what seemed to work best. I really liked that part of the game!
Fun idea, it's a bit confusing though (how to crash the computer). But I really like the aesthetics (although the main menu is a bit too dark in my opinion) and the sounds were also really well-made.
Thanks! The game has a slight learning curve, but once you manage to crash it, you should be able to do it again, though there is a bug that crashes the computer when it isn’t supposed to, and I will fix it asap.
I like the idea tho I feel like I got confused as to how to like, crash the PC.
Idk how I crashed it but I mean I get the idea. I kinda wondered if there was an internet password somewhere I didn't know.
Thanks! There is no internet password (yet), and to crash the PC you need to run multiple applications and do as much stuff as possible, even things like moving the windows around will increase the temperature, also I’m guessing you found the bug in the brick breaker game if you accidentally crashed it, that’s fixed but I need to publish the changes after the jam.. :/
Great game but i cant crash it
Thank you! To crash it though you need to try doing as much as possible, just opening all the apps may not be enough, you can do other stuff like move windows around, type in a notepad, or play some of the games or anything else like that, It takes a bit to learn how but then it gets really easy and you can literally do it in under 7 seconds lol
Pretty good. Don't know how I crashed it honestly but brickbreaker was pretty fun on its own lol
Yeah, the brickbreaker game has a known bug that causes the game to crash for no reason, that’s how the 4 second run is possible on the leaderboard, I will work on fixing that bug asap. Thanks for playing either way, I’m glad you liked the game!
The leaderboard is hard to read but it still looks nice and the game was a bit confusing at first but then I got it. Good Game
Thank you! The leaderboard is pretty hard to read sometimes, I did notice that, especially with numbers like 8 and 0 which look similar, I will probably work on making the UI more readable while keeping that effect somehow lol
I beat the game a few times and still don’t understand what happened xD. It’s quite surprising the amount of OS features you got in a such a short time, and the presentation was amazing too! Very well done
Thanks, I’m not sure what you mean by “don’t understand what happened”? I’m guessing you were playing the Brickbreaker or Snake and closed the tab? Since that’s a known bug that makes the computer overheat and I will fix it asap :D
Cool idea and love the presentation (the screen effect hurt my eyes a bit though).
Thank you! Maybe I should have went a bit easier on that screen effect but I think it’s mostly fine for a pretty short game, and I might change that later i guess :)
nice graphics, just very hard to look at for me!
Thanks! That’s totally understandable, hope you liked the game though :D
Very very nice graphics. And well made UI
Thanks! I’m glad you liked it :D
I really like the aesthetics of the game! 10/10
Ty! Happy to hear you liked it! Your game was great too btw :D
its cool but whats the passwordddddd
shhhhhh….
Holy, this is such a cool entry!! I have no idea how you did all that in a such time. The gameplay is very fun, it takes some thinking and trying stuff to find how to crash on the first time and then it's just trying to do it as fast as possible. The artstyle is also amazing, so if you did it by yourself well congrats because it feels pretty polished and really nice. Honestly love the game even outside of the jam scope, a really fun small experience!
(i'm happy with my sub 25sec but 4 seconds??? how???)
Thanks! I did make this one alone but it’s like 90% post processing anyway! Btw, the 4 second run was using a known bug that I’m planning to fix if i update the game after the jam
Oooh okay I see, i get it now lol. And good job again on the post processing then!
Love the game! Exploring and trying to find what causes the computer to heat up feels very engaging, felt like a it guy trying different things lol. The art is amazing as well, very concise, sometimes the screen blinking feels a bit rough on the eye but it fits with the whole aesthethic.
I just want to know who is guest4995 and how did he score 4 seconds?!?!
Thanks! But yeah, who is guest4995 lol
Brickbreaker Tech OP! this game is so cool!!!!! LOVE the visuals the sound design is GREAT and it fits the theme REALLY WELL!!! good job!
Tysm! I’m really glad you liked the game, and I’ll eventually get around to fixing those bugs too :D
So aesthetic.
thanks!
Cool little time killer, though it does seem alot of random range rather than much affecting the temp could just be me though.
To edit, did use multiple apps, updated software, ran wifi filled notepad and moved windows only exceeded the max temp once when i had not set the name
I’m happy to hear you liked the game. I’m not exactly sure what you mean but everything that you do in the game will change the temperature by a fixed amount and it will fluctuate a degree or two from that point, also your score is saved even without a name or anything, you can set the name now and it will be added to the leaderboard unless you manually reset the data :)
i love the aesthetic so much!! great stuff
Ty! I’m glad you like it. Your game was amazing too!
