Ha! Got immmmm! Well made and clever, really shows off what you dcould do with even more time. Audio was fantastic btw.

The monologue introduction in itself makes the game. It's hilarious.

Very dark theme! :)
Excellent voice acting and music, and I really liked the camera angles. Though the gameplay was a little simple and short.

Great voice acting, great graphics -- a little anticlimactic if you manage to guess the right elevator too quickly -- but a great approach to the theme. Nice work!

I love puns :D

aevek 2015-04-22 00:43

Really cool simple little game. Loved the voice-over.

heardtheword 2015-04-22 01:28

Well that was dark. Great voice acting and graphics!

The overall game was simple and short but it fit the theme well.

Very stylishly presented, with great voice acting and music. I'd be interested to see if there could be more to do from the computer interface. It feels like the current version of the game is just the start of something bigger that we don't get to see (yet?). Nice work!

docjekyll 2015-04-22 02:20

Very dramatic. Quite macabre.

defectivemelon 2015-04-22 02:37

Haha, I love the voice acting here. The gameplay is tense too, and I'm sure could be expanded on if you wanted to. What I'm saying is, cool game.

silentbaws 2015-04-22 03:58

I loved this! You should keep working on it I'd be interested in seeing what else you could do with this idea

andrewjoy 2015-04-22 04:14

Nice production value :D More of a demo than a full game, but still a lot of fun.

tortoise 2015-04-22 04:19

Dark theme and cool audio, I like.

indiestry 2015-04-22 05:57

It was short, but it felt really polished considering it was made within 72h.

gomango999 2015-04-22 06:27

The opening cut-scene/voice-over really set the theme, but it got a bit repetitive every single time I wanted to replay. Very nicely polished

bsevers18 2015-04-22 06:28

Well put together, nice polish. The theme was pretty morbid and the dialog seemed a bit childish. Not really my cup of tea. But really nice level of quality throughout. Especially the audio

(+)Every worker stares at desktop page.
(+)Every computer has same wallpaper.
(+)Hacking from desktop page, that's new.
(+)Voice over.
(+)Dark music.
(-)Too short.

projectx593 2015-04-22 15:38

Short but hilarious - loved it!

lochmann-apps 2015-04-22 19:13

Wow, nice! Settings is amazing. Would love to see different actions. But is a cool game!

kyyrma 2015-04-22 19:25

There is very little of a game here, but the presentation is absolutely top notch. Also what the hell are you talking about amateurish voice acting in your post-mortem? That stuff is gold, it was hilarious.

hyoga-3d 2015-04-22 19:56

Very well done, it is well polished and well presented.
Also the used the theme in a trully diferente way, congrats!

garethiw 2015-04-22 20:02

Nice

traumendes_madchen 2015-04-22 20:49

Wow, very complete 3D game here, I'm impressed. I liked the music, the voice over and how it created a shady atmosphere. And the idea is really unique too. I just think the system is a bit confusing overall but that's all. Nice experience ^^!

kaiseangames 2015-04-22 21:53

While the production is very good, it is sad to think what kind of moral state our world is in that we find killing amusing. We find entertaining things that all known laws prohibit. I have rated the game without this in mind, but, oh boy, do we need a reality check. Sorry for the honesty.

randoman 2015-04-22 23:49

Very nice game. Loved the audio.

hambone88 2015-04-23 06:15

This was amazing! Thanks for your feedback BTW.

big-cow 2015-04-23 23:47

Excellent! Really cinematic. I'd play an expanded version of this. Really good concept to be able to control things remotely via computer and see the results via video camera, I think the idea would sustain a full game.

andrewkennedy 2015-04-24 02:36

Wow, really great voice acting. Even though it took longer to download than it did to play through, I'm very glad I did. Pretty funny/dark premise.

frenchie 2015-04-24 02:48

Short and sweet :)

sonnybone 2015-04-24 02:48

I have to applaud you for the unique theme interpretation. A short but sweet dark comedy to brighten up my day of rating LD games. "Let's Slay" made me grown with laughter. Gonna share this one with friends. Good job Richie!

sonnybone 2015-04-24 02:49

Grown? I meant groan. I'm not drunk right now I swoar.

triplevisiongames 2015-04-24 08:48

The VO and the camera effect in the elevator make it feel REALLY profressional. Neat little idea for a game too. Very impressed with this!

embalaje 2015-04-26 12:14

Nice job with the game. Cool graphics, cool music, cool voice.
Short but very effective gameplay.
Hey, what if you could hack the whole building? Make some comprimising photos with the webcam of the boss, send to his wife,conect the microphone to the building speakers, make the coffee machine throw more and more coffee...and when his life is a ruin, and everithing goes wrong...then the elevator!
revengeee!

chromebookbob 2015-05-03 18:23

This is brilliant.

robert_steiner 2015-05-04 18:16

It's not really a game, is it?
But still, you sir might have just shown me the way. You see - I'm an audio, let's say hobbyst, and I'm always so taken over the gamedev, that I leave audio department out. Maybe this is the way - to use free assets and fiddle around with sound.

phocker 2015-05-11 04:51

i liked that more than i should have - fantastic!
