The power cord is a clever mechanic and it's implemented well.
This game reminds me of Good Job!. Both games involve working / doing chores. Same goes for a game like Job Simulator. The difference with those game and this game, is that those games derive their fun from the player being able to mess around. I think that, for me, that's what's missing from this game. The player can't make any mistakes or wreak havoc. Maybe the player could vacuum up a carpet, or the clothes of an employee, leaving them in their underwear. Maybe they can suck up someone's lunch, laptop, documents, wig, etc. Maybe you could make people trip over the power cord, or knock over tables and chairs. That's where a lot of fun could come from. However, that would probably be a lot of work as well, and would be out of scope for a jam.
I think you have a great mechanic here which could become part of a great game!
I'd really appreciate it if you would have a look at my game as well, and be sure to download the smaller version :D
