Absolutely hilarious. This may be my first ever game jam, but this is certainly one of the best of jam games. The game is very nearly perfect, and I love it.

If I had to choose some criticism, I would say that some of the audio needs work, but certainly nothing that kept me from enjoying myself.

That's very creative! I like the absurd situations you came up with!

Also appreciate the character customization and settings on a compo game.

"My dog ate my lucky dime" is pure nasty but this game sure isn't. I had so much fun! Great job the music although simple fits the purpose and the mechanics are pretty straightforward and easy to master. Well done.

This game was really enjoyable to play. I enjoyed the challenge of each level and the humor in the concept.

I finished all the tasks lol I thought something bad would happen when I tied my arm in a knot, it was so nice to see that he could safely untie the knotted set!

That was great, the themeing of the levels keeps it feeling fresh even though you're basically doing the same thing. Not to say there isn't any variety, there are some obstacles and gets more challenging later on even though the punishment for messing up is very minor (but I like that). Graphics and sound is very fitting as well and the 2 different ways to play can mix things up. If I have any complaint it's that the "on route" and "job finished" screens hang on for a bit too long. I really like the job postings and "thank you" notes you get though! Nice entry!

Nice little experience! I like mini games and these were funny ones to play (yes, I played them all). Fresh take on the theme and great style. If I had chosen to replay the game the jobs would be different? I'm curious. Thanks for this entry!

It is so revealing to find such game with pleasant control and without deaths from one single hit
Nice game

Nice game! This idea look very simple and looks like you can release this game for Android/iOS, so you should try continue work on your game:)

A career is very important, especially in the military sphere. If you are a man in uniform and you need a job, then think about writing a high-quality military resume using this service https://resumewritinglab.com/military-resume-writing/ and all the doors for employment will open before you. This is the easiest way to avoid problems with employment and save time.
