PHONE FRENZY

Old switchboard operator's job but as an arcade highscore puzzle game.

Try to get the highest score before eventually failing. (Warning: It is very stressful trying to keep up)

Double the fun by loudly mispronouncing the names slightly while searching for them (This can also make it a great local multiplayer experience)

Sadly I ran out of time and did not manage to add fun upgrades. I had some ideas, also for some automation and to have multiple switchboards where you need to connect calls via multiple jacks.

Solo dev, No AI was used. All art created in GIMP. Remixed sounds from libraries and fonts from fontspace.com.

Yes it has a couple of bugs if you connect the jacks in weird ways, but I am happy that I managed to get the game out and polished enough in time to be playable from start to finish and with audio.
