LudumData

Office Simulator 2014 by FuzzyWuzzie

[raw]
made by FuzzyWuzzie for LD29 (COMPO)
I decided Friday that I wasn't going to participate this time as I have work to do.

Saturday morning I changed my mind. Here's the result!

*Note: the theme may not be readily apparent until you play through.

Tools used:

* Unity
* Unity 2D Toolkit
* PyxelEdit
* WolframTones
* Sublime Text 2

It's sadly completely unpolished and not thoroughly tested, and the ending was too rushed. Time got away from me again! :( But, hopefully next time I'll actually learn to manage my time!

Thanks for taking a look anyway!

Damn it Paul, where are you. Took me a long time. Nice confy sofa in the women bathroom, just like The Office.

This was an amazingly fun game for what it was! I thoroughly enjoyed this entry to Ludum Dare. The humor was phenomenal, and the story was interesting. While the graphics, audio, and overall theme-tie-in wasn't very good, the rest of the game shone through. Exemplary job.

Nice interpretation! There are a lot of collision and layer bugs but everything else is excellent.

I thought that this was quite interesting. I just busted out laughing when he started programming 99 bottles XD

I loved this - it is nostalgic with a modern twist. This took me back to playing Little Computer People on my Amstrad 6128 when I was a kid. Great interpretation of the theme.

A few little bugs here and there like other people mentioned, but heck, 48 hours?

Awesome!

Nice game, the layout reminds me of The Office T.V. Show

It's all about making something, and you accomplished that despite losing some time. I like the graphics, and it looks like you could take the game somewhere. Good effort nonetheless.

I was wondering what the get physical button was for, then BAM! Awesome game, I loved it.

I burst out laughing at the end, even though I had absolutely no clue what to do. Loved it, one of my favourites so far :)

Excellent art style (and you did make a lot of art!) and humor. The audio was really good too. Coding/Program humor and boss humor were my favorite.

I loved it although I have no idea what it's like to be working in an office.

That was silly, but pretty nice :-) I loved the goofy walking animations.

There were some Z-sorting glitches with the sprites, but the game was solid. Thanks for the laugh!

Definitely the funniest game that I've played :)
