Evil Lunix System Admin by c0nfused

[raw]
made by c0nfused for LD26 (COMPO)
I made a game about getting snacky cakes, avoiding work, and filling out randomly generated trouble tickets. It has the bare minimum of layer interactivity, movement, and no GUI.
From there its just you and your wits against a seemingly endless stream of users and trouble tickets.

It is old school enough that if you screw up you start over. None of those fancy health bars, jumping, or combat systems. To enforce some sort of dying penalty you are forced to watch your admin deal with the trouble ticket you just picked up for a few seconds.

I am somewhat concerned that I made this too easy. My wife assured me that it was "pretty hard". So, I made it harder. It is still winnable.

Haha, this is just brilliant. 5/5 audio and mood, pal. This feels like an office, 'lright?
I couldn't find the exit on the 4th floor though, so... :|
I searched everywhere... I tried to get back there, but those pesky users, man. :P

The 4th floor exit should be top right.

Are people generally having trouble finishing it now? have I made things too hard? There are some console commands that let you do stuff like change the level you start at.

I tried it about 10 times and I can't even come close to getting to the floor 2 exit....

Shouldn't have to start the whole game over everytime I die. Also, I would like to go faster :)

Funny. Dying is actually more fun than completing the game.
