If you have implemented the modifier, how have you done so?
The game is loud and obnoxious.

Any additional information for voters?
Due to the sound, if you're wearing headphones, maybe take them off for the first three seconds of the game.

I always play every SBIGJam game from least to most votes this year, so this one came last on my list. And thank god I saved it for last! 😍

First off, I just love Greg's design. Having him contrast with absolutely everyone else in the company is just hilarious. Just the raised eyebrow the whole game as well 😂 The way every character bounces the whole time is just beautiful as well!

In terms of gameplay it's fairly simple but has a nice fun story. I loved being able to throw my coworkers (if my coworkers are reading this, I meant roleplaying as Greg! Not in real life!) The dialogue was good and the game just had a very SBIG feel to it.

The camera made me *slightly* sick but I somewhat got used to it. Kinda felt like the modern point & click style cameras except the way you're moving constantly changes 😂

Overall a very strong SBIGJam contender! Thanks for taking part this year!

Thanks for playing! I made the game and the camera makes me sick too, it’s my main focus post jam lol. Unfortunately took a backseat due to time constraints.

Appreciate you hosting / playing the game!

I really liked the look and the lines! I don't know if it was just me, but the background music could perhaps have been different. I loved having the option to throw my coworkers. Amazing job

Cool concept, vibe of the game is great and it ties really well together in terms of graphics and sound. Being able to throw people around was a nice surprise. Voice acting lines are pretty funny as well. Congratz on the entry!

I tried doing the pacifist route which I don't throw or kill anyone. Unfortunately, there's no alternate ending for doing so. Instead, the boss didn't say anything and didn't let Greg go home.

I guess this is how working goes irl. No one ever notice all the good things you've done. They can only see the mistakes you've made. 😢

I liked it when Greg pick up a guy and threw him and then he fuckign died. I swear I could hear a gibbing sound from half life a couple of times. But Idk what was I supposed to do when the Greg said that he should go home.

Also an accurate depiction of work in the office.

Thats the end, I just chose to let people keep playing if they wanted to throw people around! Appreciate you taking the time to participate in Greg’s life!

I like the art style a lot but I'm not sure if it qualifies as So Bad It's good. I did have a hard time figuring out what to do with the guy stuck in the pile of stuff because the art style makes it hard to tell what he's covered in, but I eventually figured out I needed to bring the animals to him. The camera handling can be rough at times, and some transitions will immediately send you back if you keep going in the same relative direction. Other than that, though, I had a lot of fun with the weird narrative and janky physics. I got fired for throwing people, not sure if there's an ending past that.

Not sure if I did more harm than good for my coworkers, but I sure had fun. Still not sure if its a mouth or a moustache🤔
