Hell Yeah

The managers blocking your way while trying to keep an eye on you is soooo perfect.

I absolutely love this game. It's really fun managing everything since I have to carry groceries, eat and drink while avoiding the manager's eyes, and even go to the toilet.

One piece of feedback I have is that I often accidentally pressed the R key instead of the E key, causing me to unintentionally restart the game, which was quite troublesome. Despite that, I found myself really drawn to this game. Thank you.

This was great fun! It said I became the perfect worker in 1:23:56 but I'm not sure I played that long :sweat_smile: Or maybe I just forgot about time because I was having that much fun! Always great when every upgrade feels meaningful. Though not sure about that one manager following me into the bathroom... Let me have some privacy!

Fun entry, it would be cool to see other obstacles implemented outside of the managers and stats. Great job!

I was scared that I put 35 minutes into this playthrough but then I noticed another comment doubting the time. Phew! Pretty good game. It's really annoying that walking against wall makes you slower. You can probably fix that if you make a physics material with 0 friction. Sharing only the scripts is a bit weird... You could just share the whole project. The project files are part of it too. :D

Ahh this one is great! The managers are super annoying which totally fits. I love the way they encourage me to path with intention around such a simple environment to avoid getting trapped. I did find it pretty easy to duck out of their sight to eat/drink, but that's probably good because there's lots of other stuff to deal with as well.

If you wanted to do more with it, I might reduce the maintenance load some (maybe remove sleeping in true capitalist fashion?) in exchange for making the ingredient picking/delivery a little more engaging. It's already got a lot going for it as a jam game though, nice job!

This was an interesting take on the theme!

Just like in real life, the managers only get in the way...

A cool entry! I especially liked the funky music. Great job!

This was a fun management game. I liked the music and the way your stats affected things. Being able to eat the store's groceries instead of buying food/milk was a funny touch, as were the managers getting in the way. Well done.

I love this idea. The managers were just a bit too annoying, which I think fits the game perfectly. Though perhaps it is an idea for another upgrade - increased power to push through them slightly more quickly? Also, the managers following and watching you when you go to the toilet feels pretty disturbing, which - again! - fits well for this game.

One thing I found a little bit funny is that the first upgrade - the mechanical legs - increases your speed so much it becomes difficult to control for a while, so until you get used to the new speed it actually feels like a downgrade.

Lovely game ! quite complete and full of surprises ! I actually liked how the managers can be so annoying, even when going for a pee-pee ! Nice touch with the grave as well :) Cool entry !

I really enjoyed this take on the theme! I think this would have been better if there was some kind of alarm sound when the meter was flashing. The humor was also quite good in this. Well done!
