The Right Tool For The Job is a puzzle game that asks players to complete every-day tasks with conventional weapons, in very unconventional ways.
Controls: - Left click to use weapon - Right click or Spacebar to select weapon - WASD to move
Use the weapons provided to get through the mundane tasks present to you. Get inventive to progress but be warned; using the wrong weapon for the task will result in a failure for the scenario.
Instructions: Room one: Put out the candle Room two: Dispose of the dog poop Room three: Change and feed the baby
It is recommended that this game is played in fullscreen.
A cheatsheet for each scenario can be found in the links section down below, you dirty cheaters.
Update: The Right Tool For The Job has been updated to fix some bugs and small usability problems. The changelog is as followers: - Locked the mouse to the game - Fixed a missing audio file that should have played when starting the game - Put a note showing the objective of each scenario - Fixed the FileNotFound error (maybe, let us know if its still happening)
LOL, the snarky announcer is so well played. OK, so the objectives were not obvious to me so I'm glad you included them in the instructions. I really like the subtle shader you have on the environment. I figured out the first puzzle but none beyond that so I'm glad you included the answers too, haha. Also, the game works much better in fullscreen, otherwise the mouselook is hard to manipulate.
Great voice acting there. The controls are a bit of a pain when you have two screens though - my mouse keeps going on the other screen. Cool idea with the unconventional use of conventional weapons!
Far too overcomplicated, IMO. You even had to provide cheatsheets.

It's kind of annoying that you have to do all the stuff in the right order i.e you can't feed the baby and then change his diaper. Fun game and concept tho, I really liked the voice acting.
Voice acting was great! The visual aesthetic was really nice too. The solutions are very obscure though, and using the wrong tool being a failure condition is kind of frustrating when you are trying to experiment. The game did keep me interested though. Nice job!
ps: It's really hard to play on windowed mode, when mouse cursor is all over the place.
