Very nice theme, very actual ! Try our game, we have the same theme of avoid getting fired of your job haha !
nice game
Really cool! Nice game. Love the little character. We also did a game of not getting fired!!
Haha get stuck on an object, panic and got fired... This was really fun to play, good job.
This was a great idea π I was one second from being fired because I got greedy bringing a shirt to the washing machine
Hah @ayced, I beat you!! imagen_2022-10-04_110631252.png
@probe2 The home office hero speedrun scene is developing. I got you back!
@ayced A sub 50...that's what people have been dreaming about for years π
Done in 47 second on my third attempt. On my second attempt i think that a shirt has clipped trough the level and become unreaceble.
Fun game!
@ayced You're the current record holder π βοΈ
@kromeboy Nice, I guess you just broke the record hehe, but we need proof π
Yeah, unfortunately sometimes there are clipping issues..
Another Record! Immagine.jpg
Very frantic haha! I was basically just doing a task and then emailing the boss immediately once I went a few rounds of getting fired. Game art was very nice, but the HUD could use a little work. Overall very nice game, and a lot of fun to play! Well done!
@kromeboy Nice one! You're the new record holder. My best recorded time is 46.83 so I should try to beat it hehe.
@cobrajs Thank you for the feedback! :)
This is definitely my record π
The game is fun and simple. The audio loop is too repetitive however
Very cool game and good usage of the theme. Good job!
@finntastico It's a really funny game π I played for several times and my best record is 52 seconds. The boss is such a control freak so you must check in with him every 10 seconds. I think it would be great to have a timer in the UI to see how many time left before next check-in. Well done!
nice job. nice modeling for a short time. minimal but good
As a home office worker I can easily relate with Bill. Go Bill!
My best time so far is 18.41 seconds!

Here is a video of the strategy I used, think I can do my plates better:

Cool take on the theme and fun hectic gameplay! Great that you managed to build a complete apartment for this, very well done!
@ayced Wow! That was amazing to watch haha. So cool to see you "exploit" the throwing mechanism with the T-Shirt. @lexi and I need to try to beat this. This is way under our best times.
@fnelix Thank you! :)
@Thanks4AllTheFish I'm glad you enjoyed it :D We thought about putting the timer in the UI but then we didn't do it because we kind of liked tha it added to the game being hectic. However I feel like the game should have at least some warning for the last 3 seconds or so, so that you still have a chance to get back to the laptop.
Wow, I was fired a lot! Good use of theme, easy to understand mechanics, and the game looked good too. Nice job!
Nice game! We all are Bill π
Damn, it's really addictive. A couple of times I managed to knock out 30 seconds (there is a screenshot of only 43), which, as I saw, is quite a lot. It looks finished and it's nice. And I think I will definitely come back to play again, it's super fun! Keep it up !43s.png
Great entry! It was really fun to panic around the house while checking in with the boss π I love how you're using the theme in a different way compared to other games I already played
Yeah, this is pretty neat. I can see how a speedrun community's already developed around it. Interesting and unique use of the theme too.
Love your game! That boss is an ahole hahaha Very well put together and fun to play. I love the graphics and the music / sound effects are cute and fitting
I love how the timer is on the computerscreen, so that you don't have any idea how much time there is left while doing the dishes ^^
This game could use a leaderboard! I think people would speedrun this game even more I think :-)
Great game, but I don't finish it because T-shirt stuck in sofa.
@pusheeneiro Thank you :) and oh no, yeah I think that happens sometimes :/
Nice game and very relatable in the post pandemic work environment!
simple, funny, vital skills ! a couple of times things got stuck in the walls
.... That's just exactly what I did this afternoon ! π
Nice little game, I finished in 41s ! I just has a small bug with the red shirt in the tv room vanishing...
Theme probably can't get more spot on, and the story is hilarious.
Very cool game. I did something not the same but somewhat similar for LD 47 but I think yours is better :-)
That's literally my working day π You are hitting me to my heart with this one π
Anyway it's funny! Nice job!
Congrats on the game, I'm really bad at playing these skill games, but I really enjoyed it lol, fun game, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to play your game, a big hug.
If video games are supposed to be about escapism, how come you represented the remote work experience so perfectly? Cracked up at the underwear + shirt and tie combo. Spot on. Top points for comedy
Nice job making a fun game!
The silly physics really made me laugh and added to the game! (I accidentally catapult a shirt into the bookshelfπ)
Nice controls and intense gameplay!
Good simple fun! Made me smile and just bloody **worked**. Did it in 75sec. Would've loved some unexpected surprises eg. the washing machine starts flooding, bookshelf falls over etc. but very nice indeed.
What an accurate representation of smart working XD very funny, fun to play and polished, nice job!
Nice little game. Navigation is a bit unforgiving, trying to manoeuvre through the doors, and sometimes I'd pick up the "wrong" item (particularly in the living room, I kept grabbing the laundry instead of the books). Good graphics style though, well done!
I amoust had a heart attack but I liked it ha-ha Really nice game! Waiting for the graphics update after the jam!! β₯οΈ
I also would be very happy if you'd check out my team first game :)
This game is super fun and its so engaging! tried my best to beat the new 18.41 score but i think im not a match for that) Overall- great GAME!
Forgot to take a screenshot but the game was funny and simple but still quite hard to manage. Good job on balancing.
Maybe I would have added a minimal time between two "resets". I mean xou can reset every time you pass by but what about only allowing to reset with <1s left? This could lead to more people trying to save time by doing more jobs in one cycle which makes things a bit harder
Alright this ones pretty addicting, I thought it was pretty hard at first but quickly got the hang of it. It's a bit difficult to pick up certain items when theres a lot of them around but that sorta adds onto the chaotic nature of it.
I feel personally attacked.. Great game :)
Very realistic, especially with my ADHD just picking up whatever is closest to me lol.
I wasn't able to beat it because I just couldn't find the last two clothes for the life of me but I got close!
If you wanted to pick this up into a full game, I say add even more chaos. It could be fun to have an absolute catastrophe around you as you're trying to keep in touch with your boss.
