I also did know that moving to a new office ans things like that were positive, so i said no each time to keep production costs low. And then i read the end of the description hahaha.\rI find the game a bit stressing because of the sound and how fast things disapear but I guess that was the effect wanted.\rSome more static menus to change employees salary and things like that would be a nice plus to the game."},{"author_name":"GertJohnny","author_uid":"22774","time":"Aug 25, 2015 @ 5:32pm","epoch":1440523620,"text":"Unique take on the theme.

Clicking dialogue options is frustratingly hard because they'll move to the top of the screen before you can click them; there's no real incentive to gain or lose money; the satire of big gaming companies is kind of mediocre.\r\rOn the other hand, the graphics were pretty nice (I like the screen effect), and it's a fairly creative take on the theme."},{"author_name":"Reccy","author_uid":"41489","time":"Aug 26, 2015 @ 4:53pm","epoch":1440607680,"text":"The game was really hectic and fun, but the audio got a bit repetitive after a while.

It's obviously well made and very innovative, but the constant coughing and phone ringing in the background was really annoying. Also, floppy's speech bubbles got in the way of the important stuff on the right, and it was confusing.\r\rI'm sorry if this came over as a negative review because it wasn't meant to be, the visuals, humour and innovative aspects were really nice and I would love to play a post-LD build.
