The Worse of Two Evils by cptalbertwesker

[raw]
made by cptalbertwesker for LD25 (JAM)
The Worse of Two Evils lets you have a bit of a wander around in the shoes of two very 'evil' jobs; the Traffic Warden and the Telemarketer.

Of course these jobs aren't evil, but some people would like to think they are.

Very simple game, just mouse useage. Made in GameMaker Studio, with Paint for graphics and audacity for sound.

I'm aware there's a bug where the first choice is chosen without you being able to read it, unfortunately its 1am and I'm not going to fix it!


Wanted to be part of the competition, unfortunately this is the first LD in a while that isn't part of it.

In the windows version you can pick a villain. The start was confusing but I figured it out. In the telemarketer I got a bug in the 3rd call I did lie and I was unable to do anything. I think it was a great idea, playing people who have thankless jobs.

I like what I'd call the Mr Bean style spotlight on the choose your villain screen :D

My favourite of the two jobs is the telemarketer, poor guy nobody seems to like him when I play, is it possible to get little ticks or is he just that bad at his job?

I also loved how different the traffic warden's job was. You've pretty much done two little games in one! Also love your VO as usual :)
Shame that it's a little buggy but it's still completely playable which is awesome!
