jobbie by nullval
It's only a matter of time before you get fired, stay hired at Corp and co :)
type the symbols before they disappear, remember to do it in order.
OBS! I've uploaded an HTML5 version and a portable version (after the deadline) it is the exact same build.
But your boss might also want to talk with you :/

Btw, if you can, try to export portable version. I think many people here will appreciate no need to install a program on a computer :)
This game is really challenging, but I had fun with it. It has really funny questions too! I got fired in the first 30 seconds lol.
Sadly, my brain isn't coded to handle reading two things at once and typing, so the gameplay got a bit hard for me. Maybe the boss should start appearing more the longer you manage to keep your job instead of doing it ever so often when you're just starting to get the hang of it (then again, it could just be a me thing)
Over all, i really enjoyed the game!
A bit more of a gap between times when the boss shows up, or yes/no options that are on the keyboard (so, maybe numbers, or "+" and "-" or something) might have made the experience lean more towards challenging, rather than frustrating!
Also, I don't know if I was just mistaking it for another letter, but it never seemed to like it when I tried to enter the "Y" prompt, for some reason.
Funny concept though--good work! :smile:
Congratz on your first LD entry btw! You did a good job finishing a game :D
really though, this is a neat concept that simulates both working with people you hate doing work you detest.
@skruffye ah you've probably mistaken the V and Y (yeah the font choice is one thing I'd change as the first thing)
thank you for all the amazing feedback :D

I'm really glad that people got the vibe I was going for, there's definitely a lot of changes I want to make, a lot of additions too. But honestly I am thrilled that the core/heart of the game still came through.
I'm definitely looking forward to Ludum dare 51 now :D
OBS! really important, Neither I nor the game recommends fucking your boss wife or telling him/her about it.
