Bureau of Summonings: Infernal Affairs by KaisenTheGreatOne

[raw]
made by KaisenTheGreatOne for Ludum Dare 55 (JAM)

"Bureau of Summonings: Infernal Affairs" is a game where the player works in the bureaucratic nightmare of hell, reviewing applications to summon the devil. (Fullscreen is recommended) Screenshot1.png Manage forms, reject incorrect documents, see which people are trying to summon the devil himself, and try to beat your latest high score! Screenshot2.png But be careful. The complexity of your tasks will rise over time. Screenshot3.png Still too easy? Try some harder difficulty settings and envelop yourself in your new hellish job :) (Fullscreen is recommended)

Bugfix 1: - Volume turned down by 95% - Dialogue sound effect removed

The sound of the text is bit loud! But otherwise a fun little Papers Please type game. Simple but effective.

I liked the lowpoly design, but im not sure how to play. how to tell the difference between the forms? they all look exactly the same. Although I skipped half of introduction cause I don't like bureaucracy, there is plenty in real life:D

Thanks to this game, I've realized that I'm not suited to be an official at USCIS or the IRS. But I believe that the game must contain the author's profound personal experiences. I respect the concept behind this work.

Fun concept! Everything appears to work but the audio is a bit too loud I had to mute the tab. Would love to see extra love put into the atmosphere or adding more character to the setting with the desk. But overall everything appears to work and I'm a sucker for Bureaucracy.

I liked the design, the mix between 3d and 2d forms to read. I liked the mechanics, reminded me a lot of papers please. The random selection of forms was maybe a little bit too random. I didn't find a single form that didn't have a watermark, for example.

The graphics are great, as well as the introduction dialogue which has a sinister style. Unfortunately, the audio did not work for me, but I enjoyed playing it - a great twist on Papers Please.

I really like the lighting in this, it makes the whole atmosphere feel sinister yet gives it that dull feel of an office, I love it. The 3D environment with the Papers Please gameplay is great too! Honestly had a really fun time playing this, even though I'm an awful secretary (I managed to get fired in hello :/).

3180. I truly felt like hell office worker and wished to make mistake after some time so someone would put me out of this misery. But in general cool concept and solid implementation. The best fit for the theme so far. Some opportunity for interesting jokes missed, would love to see more specific wished and maybe some unique not generated cards and gameplay motivation to read them.

Nice Papers please -like game. I expected the age guidelines to change as well. Didn't hear any audio which could've made the atmosphere even better.

Appreciate the difficulty option.


Good job.

I had a somewhat similar idea for the LD53. Cool implementation. The graphics are pleasing to the eye!
