I like visual style of this game. Cool title
This was cool! I liked the doldrum of data entry paired with going insane. I also appreciated that I had a text box to respond to the boss--even if nothing I wrote down mattered, I liked having that outlet, lol.
Cool idea, thanks for your efforts!
that boss can be a really mean guy if you start cussing at him... The don't look at the ceiling email got me too, ngl especially since the first thing i did was look at the ceiling and then see movement in my peripheral near the floor lol
The best screamers are ones in your head =). Thanks for playing!
Cool take on the them .Gave it a five star rating would be great if you did the same :)
I spent some solid 10 mins just getting coffee and doing tasks and every time I would go to my coffe break I'd think to myself "Another day, another dollar made from working at the Backrooms" lol
Cool concept, would love to see it grow!
I managed to fall through the map when I walked past a chair. maybe the amount of tasks really got the character.
The level design had a liminal space feel to it which I really dig. It was dark and creepy when ever i journeyed to get my cup of coffee. Sound design is great, I felt like wasnt alone and something was lurking. Im very confused to how to get all of my tasks done, since there are so many tasks. I think this game can benefit having more instructions on what to do.
EDIT: I did not know that i could step over the chair, and when I was there, I just wandered aimlessly.
this is just a prototype, so thats why so many tasks, im not good at endings =) thanks for comment!
OMG my soul left my body >.< The scares are sooo good! Really interesting concept and love the game mechanics. The 90s aesthetic with the little working computer, and the kitty poster! We have a similar one in our game and it made us squeal. ^_^
Knocked it out of the park with the sound design IMO.
I hope you get to complete the rest of the game soon. I would love to come back and finish it.
Thanks! If people like it, I'll def finish it someday =)
