Funny view of the JAM theme XD
interesting approach for the theme.
Great entry, absolutely love the unique take on the theme. The graphics were simple but well suited for this game, and I enjoyed the variety of the “minigames”. Would love to see more out of this idea in the future!
Fun and relaxing, as all things should be ;)
Cool game. Feedback was a bit missing though. I could really see this as a full game with many more little activities that you have to do to get to the top of the food chain. Almost something like Wario Ware :) Got to Floor 7 with a score of 170 points :) Good job!
Ahh, climbing the corporate ladder... I love it! 😁
I will say, I couldn't really tell when I was doing a good job or a bad job. The game just kinda ended for some reason, even though I felt like I was doing well. Aside from desiring more UI to let me know when I'm doing something wrong, the game's really good at capturing the essence of climbing that work ladder. I love the gameplay of doing mundane things like answering phones, opening doors for people, and making people coffee. Great work!
Thanks so much for your feedback! I will make sure to add something to tell you whether you're close to losing next time. There was a bug that sometimes you lost points roughly every second for no reason and I couldn't work out why, so that might have been the reason you died when you were doing well!
That might've been it. Or I might've just sucked and not even noticed! If there was a way to lose points during the door opening part, it wasn't coming through to me. I just remember losing on the third coffee making activity (the ingredients were all on separate platforms, I think).
But yeah, well done! :)
The gameplay loop of gathering the right kind of coffee for people was quite relaxing and enjoyable, especially when the second layout kicked in. The interstitial activities of phone calls and opening doors was nice too. Good job!
Thanks
Interesting mechanics. Very fun to play! Music is nice and pixel art is fitting the game.
Thank for playing!
