I assume this will get more manageable in future levels, judging by your screenshot. But as is, it was barely playable for me, I hope you find the time to rework the \"productivity\" requirements at some point. This was a nice try.\n","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Bernhard","author_uid":"1019735","time":"2020-05-03T18:48:48Z","epoch":1588531728,"modified":1588531728,"text":"Made it past level 12 (full office).
