You wanted to download something, but you are running out of space? No problem, your friend COMPO is here to help.
Play as COMPO, friendly computer. Judge the user and free the space by deleting files you thing he/she doesn't need. Beware! Deleting important files and download lag irritates user.
Instructions:
Look at user, he is a funny fellow right? Guess what are his tastes? You better guess right, cause without proper judgmental skills you are a goner.
Browse through the folders (1 click to highlight, 2 clicks to open. Only folders can be opened).
Highlight the folder/item to see what size it has (bottom left).
Delete it by pressing the trashbin. The amount will be added to free space.
Watch what you delete. If you delete somethig which i important to user it it will irritate him (rise his irritation level of course).
Look at the top. There is downlaod panel. Your user is downlaoding something and he needs a space. You can see downlaod progress bar and how much is still left.
As it usueally happens, download has a time in which it should end. Buuuuut if there is not enough space on computer well duuh it lags. It also irritates user so watch out and try to be fast.
Clever game! Ended up playing it for quite a while so it definitely has replay value. One of the only games I've played that scored well for humor, due to the funny nature of some of the folders! Well done!
@noxalus Thanks a lot! Oh no, definitely that's not normal.Somehow I just completely forgot to disable it. Actually I will fix it in a minute, thanks a lot for pointing that out!
Really cool idea! My suggestions would be to give more clues as to what is important for the user, and make the first few "stages" a lot easier to ease the player into the game. It took me a long time to beat the first stage, and the second one got a bit frustrating sometimes (for example, the user didn't seem like the type of person to like jazz music but deleting the jazz folder skyrocketed the irritation). Overall though the idea is incredibly awesome and the execution was very well done, especially for a game jam. Nice work!
Great job in such a short time.
