Reminds me a lot of Papers, Please!
Loved the mood here, the background audio really made the experience. Good job!
Very good art, and nice take on the theme. Very reminiscent of Papers Please. Good work!
Very nice graphics, I especially liked the computer screen effect.
As the description said, I thought in Papers, Please. It is a good alternative. Interesting and fun.
Awesome game. More depressing than Paper's Please. Truly we are the monsters.
Interesting game! More content :D
This is awesome! I loved Papers, Please so I was right at home with the mechanic you designed. My only complaint is that it was a bit to easy. It would be better with more pressing time constraints or more things possibly going wrong. Still, this is a great for the scope of Ludum Dare.
Graphics were simple but portrayed the scene well. Audio suited well also. And "Iam Nekkid" got me laughing for quite a while. Well done!
Like others said, this is the Capitalist version of Papers, Please. Would recommend.
Credit please! :D
Very fun one ! The audio is perfect for the game.
I think the boss is still the monster in that case. The crazy naked guy is a cool addition.
Ok, as I see not I'm the only one who compare this game to PprsPlz. But that's a greate game, and this is a good start to grow up for that. :)
You nailed it. I've had one of these jobs. This is how it feels. If you have a soul anyway.
Very funny little game. Nice work! It would have been nice if there was some other way to lose, like a time constraint, but other than that it was very good!
Haha, we had a similar take on the theme! The art is great and the concept is great.
Spoiler:
I think the remorse in the ending hurts the theming. Too much redemption for the player character. :D Still very well done.
passport.. erm... application please!
i think you really picked a great sample to build your idea on. i enjoyed the game a lot!
I've never felt so depressed after finishing a game. >:
Iam Nekid? Hugh G Rection? I am done.
Full marks for this game :D please do publish it as a complete game!!!
I love it. There's nothing more I can say :D
Papers Please!
Great job, graphics and audio were spot on.
Interesting game, quite easy and a nice take on the theme.
I should have given IamNekkid his 1mil.
Really fun! I love the theme and the audio's great.
Got the discount at the end, I would play again if text would be skippable? Other than that, great job! Wasted a warning by not realizing it's year 2010 :)
Some nice looking graphics, and great mood!
cool game and nice graphics and audio :D
Pretty good !
I liked the mood! The audio fit the game very well, it's less nervous than paper please because there is no timer here, but the game do the job. The naked guy is fun :) Great submission!
Great job. Paper, please. This is a wonderfully polished game. Not too original, but who cares if there having to much fun.
Fantastic papers, please-esque game, and a real triumph considering the time. Very well made and a great take on the theme. Excellent work.
Good game! I guess Papers Please is now a genre :D
Also, great audio.
Very nice art and theme understanding :)
Well, a twist on "Papers, Please" and a nice take on the theme. Loved the "use pc" graphic.
I enjoyed playing this game, great job and fantastic audio.
I really like the aesthetics of this game. Definitely has a Papers, Please vibe going on, which isn't a bad thing. Nice work, although I personally could have done without the final dialog exchange.
This is amazingly well designed, good idea for a concept which can be done in 72 hours. Also HILARIOUS! ;D
So polished for 72 hours, amazing work. Probably among the best I've tried so far!
Very Nice PP style game. Got me good a few times.
Very good game , I must agree with a few other people , it reminds me of papers please ( a game that i think is awesome )
I can definitely see the Papers, Please! influence, but the game itself is still really good. The fonts are great, the art is consistent and the choice if colors is good too.
Great work
Really great job!!
What a soul-crushing game, but I suppose that was the idea. :P I like being able to shuffle papers around on the desk though.
i enjoyed the papers please gameplay and was somewhat relieved that it was way easier than papers please which was always hard and stressful.
this made it more boring too, sadly.
that said i think that this style of gameplay should be done more because i think maybe are more interesting mechanics along those lines.
Unique take on the theme and a successful derivative of an existing game. I enjoyed this one.
Awesome game here! I loved Papers Please and now I love this game too. :)
Very interesting game, it's fun playing it. Sounds is good, it's enhance game mood. Gameplay running well without bug.
And nice ending.
Very similar to Papers, Please! Took off in a different direction though. Very solid look and feel, played this twice to see the other outcomes.
Nice take on the theme. There was a download error on the itch.io version btw
Loved the paper-shuffling gameplay. The graphics had a nice consistent level of quality that I can appreciate. It has a nice, modern lo-fi feel.
A well made Papers, Please game. Picked by GB
Great graphics and audio.
Gameplay was a bit bland and easy, but it made up for it in story.
Seems inspired by Papers, Please but anyhow, a good and well designed game :) Pixelart is all righty and the sound is good, too!
Papers, Please
Nice job on this. Great mood created through the visuals, sound, and game mechanics. Very nice papers-please-like. :)
That a nice game! Graphics, and sounds, and those conversations... well done! :) (But it remind me of some other game... hmm)
This game need some negative consequences other than warnings from your boss. When reviewing applications after about the 5th one, the process seems more tedious than rewarding. Putting some form of conflict such as a timer or something of the sort would have been more rewarding. Honestly though this is one of the best LD jam games I have played so far and I have played a lot. GREAT WORK!
Overall a very amazing game!
The game is a humorous take on the theme. I definitely wish there was a time constraint to make its a bit more challenging. But otherwise, this is great!
Oh my gosh! I love this so much. In a way it's an even better theme than Papers, Please! There are so many ways this could be developed further (and altered to be less like Papers, Please), e.g. managing the title loan place throughout the year. Maybe the only game so far where I really did feel like a monster!
Fun game. The text was pretty entertaining to read.
Great game, only sticking point was the 250/wk person, where the rules say must have monthly income "greater than" 1000/month, which was a little ambiguous. But that's really a nit pick, everything else was well put-together. Perhaps a skip button during the "cut scenes" with the interest and fees, but all in all a great game.
A really good take on the theme
Definitely reminiscent of Papers, Please. I liked the audio a lot - it really created a paper-pusher feeling. And the "you owe us $way_more_than_you_thought in 84 months" thing got the message across well.
I felt like there probably should have been a time limit where the person would get impatient and leave or you have until 5pm to process everything, or something to give a sense of difficulty. As it is, there was no reason for me not to be very thorough, which made it feel too easy.
Papers, please it's one of my favourite games. This game is a good reminiscent of Paper please. The PC interference is really cool.
P.S.: Glory Arstotzka!
Nice graphics, but it took so much time to win:)
Bit slow for me, but I like the art and sfx!
I really really liked it – only found the end a bit meh. I find you insist a bit too much on linking to the theme when it could benefit from being implicit!
But great job otherwise!
This game gave me customer service flashbacks. 10/10
Papers pls 1.1
Fun game. A lot like Papers Please, that might be a downside. A bit of change would have been cool.
The mood is great, especially the audio. The ending is good but obvious. An alternative ending would have been a plus.
Well done!
You perfectly caught the mood of Papers Please. This game is very solid, complete and does exactly what (I think) it set out to do. You can be proud.
This was a weird game. But really interesting. Good job :D
I enjoyed the concept but i noticed that you couldn't skip the long process after you accept or deny. Made the game feel long and drawn out.
There is nothing better than doing paperwork, this game was quite fun and definitely a five star for innovation!
Great Game That Redefines What A Monster Truly Is
Good sound effects. I loved the nekkid guy. Title loans are a great way to look at the theme.
An really good interpretation of the theme! Good work!
Tedious, stressful depressing. Absolutely perfect!!!
The game felt somewhat simple/easy; perhaps adding a time constraint would increase the tension?
The audio was spot-on, well done.
nice entry, I'm a sucker for Papers, Please style gameplay. this was a nice snack-sized version :)
Nice. Those are some high fees.
Well made game, nice graphics, works well!
Also I like the idea a lot!
I love the interpretation of the theme!
Nicely made game, certainly pushed the same paperwork buttons as Papers, Please. Not sure Hugh G. Rection was really necessary, but there you go. A bit heavy handed with the moralizing too: I didn't really identify with the character's whining about the job.
It is amazing how even bureaucracy becomes fun in a game. Games are that powerful. I can easily see the parallel in between this and papers please, and it is a welcome prospect. The game feels so complete it is hard to believe it is to be a Ludum Dare entry, feels like a complete game that took weeks to be created frankly.
I really don't feel like a monster though. I mean sure I ask absurd taxes and lock desperate people in dire need for money on 84 month tortures due to absurdly high taxes, yes. However, truth be told I am actually a lowly victim of a financial system trying to also make a living, the real monsters are those that make the economic turns that impactful on the working populace without giving any support or letting their society crumble due to personal ideological beliefs or plain old corruption. Not me. But still fun game!
A very fun game. I got bored so started accepting everybody and then we had a run in with Mr Hugh... Overall really good game, clearly inspired by someone with a similar ideology and well executed!
Definitely akin to Papers Please. Totally awesome though. Thoroughly enjoyed it.
Funny, awesome game. I included it in part 18 of my Ludum Dare 33 Compilation video series, if you would like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/U5AMORGkiRk
How do I feel more like a monster as a dodgy loan agent than I ever did as a crooked soviet border guard? Excellent, well done.
Really enjoyed the mood in this with visuals which, whilst simple, are super effective and add to the overall feel of the game. Great job.
Amazing clone, I love how the game works, it's quite fun and it made me feel like total douchebags most part of the game. 5 out of 5 and I'll love to see this as full game
No dramatically dying relatives and porn ads?
Dat Hugh G Rektion tho.
Great job, the audio really pulls it all together here :)
Loved the keyboard and ringing sounds, very nice sound design. The "PC" is also a really nice touch! This was a really together game. I just have one problem...
THE HANDBOOK SAID MUST HAVE INCOME __GREATER THAN__ $1000 BUT ROY BLANKENSHIP ONLY MAKES $250/WEEK ASSUMING 4 WEEKS/MONTH THAT'S NOT LEGIT!!! I DEMAND YOU REVOKE THIS WARNING!!!
This game is definitely the cream of the crop, BTW.
Excellent game. The gameplay, art and sound were all done very well.
Great take on the theme!
Nice take on the theme. It was a pretty fun reinterpretation of "Papers Please". Very well executed, but it might be laking some kind of reward for completing all the task fast.
Nice mood. :D
PS: We have fixed our game, if you want to see it again. ^^
Thank you.
