How does your game apply the limitation (and optionally, the theme)?
For the boss requirement, I made the story be that the boss was retiring. Determined to be the one promoted, you must hack the other employees on your computer and even battle them face to face. The theme is implemented in the name of the job, Edge Industries. The name comes from the fact that, since they are a quarry, they mine stone, On The Edge of cliffs.

Solo (1)

What main engine/tool/language did you use to construct the game?
I used Godot Game Engine.

Good music, combat is a bit clunky. I really like the boss themeing combined with the coffee mechanic makes for an interesting game. 

Developer

Thanks!

There were some problems where graphics covered certain parts or something, but overall it was pretty fun to run around and everything. Nice work!

I appreciate the insight. Thanks!

Nice work! I feel like some of the employees were a bit overpowered? Overall, it was fun!

Developer

I am glad you had fun playing the game. Thanks for the feedback!

Nice music you have found here. Some of them does not fit in the game though.  Game has interesting features, but the game play mechanics aren't polished. I do like how you use computer with number keys, while the playing with that feature player needs some practice.

All the text should be smaller, font size should be normal to read; it's enough though you not have to move your whole head to read a one line off from the text.

I also wish this game would have someday as fine graphics as what your thumb icon show up.

Developer

That is interesting. I have never had that problem. The thumbnail shows what it looked like for me. I will have to look into that issue. I have never experienced anything like it before. Are you using a mobile device, or a mega scaled monitor? I know it is too late to change it, but I am curious.

Something like this, because I used the full sized computer screen. Also the Computers screen text could be in the middle of the screen though

Whoa! That is weird. My only idea is to download the executable, if you have not already done that. The web version is untested and may have glitches depending on your computer. The download runs smoother and has been tested more thoroughly. I definitely will want to look into that.

I Like That Game, Some Of The Art Isn't That Great. I Dislike The Control, But That Fine. The Idea Is Cool. I Like The Game By It Self, Think It Needs More Work. Hope You Keep Making Game And Having FUN!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

Once you understand what you gotta do, it is a nice game with a lot of work put into it. It would be easier to understand if you could type when you approach the computer, not having to click to enter text. 

Developer

I am glad you appreciated it. Thanks!

Developer

I am glad you enjoyed the game. Thanks!
