Life in the office can be stressful: somehow, it always seems like everything will collapse if you just take a minute of pause.
Instructions
In this warioware type game, every 10 seconds one of your three colleagues will call you and propose you a minigame. If everybody needs your help at the same time for more than 10 seconds, you lose.

Bug report
If you encounter some kind of bug, please send me a comment. Additionally, you can open an issue in the game's github page (listed below). I recommend playing the version on Itch.io, the screen is wider, but the one embedded will do
Clever. I like the idea of a collection of mini-games, although I was hoping I could get some kind of bonus for having all three tasks completed before another one was requested. In any case, nice use of the theme.
This is really good. I think adding more workers would help to increase the difficulty, as well as timers counting down with workers getting more annoyed as the time goes down.
Pretty fun, I thought it progressed/ramped up nicely. The different minigames were all fun and felt on-theme which was great. Art style and audio was pretty cohesive too.
I love the style! I've seen lots of office themed games this jam where things go wrong, my favorite thing is how easy it controls. I wish I was better at typing. The password part reminds me of my parents :)
This is brilliant. The mini-games are surprisingly difficult given their simplicity!
I know you didn't make the music, but it's a really inspired choice. It's exactly like the sort of "relaxing" music you'd hear in an office elevator, and it somehow adds to the stress of completing all the tasks... 🤔
@martysarc Adding more workers would actually make the game a bit easier, since a new job spawns every 10 seconds anyway, but workers getting angry are actually a very good idea. Thanks!
It was a very intelligent take on the theme. I made it 4 minutes and 10 seconds. What it needs is a visual indication that you've moved on to a new minigame, because sometimes it's the same type and you don't even realise. It also needs more minigames. It's a great foundation, though.
Oh my god stressful I LOVE IT! Lasted almost 5 mins but then I got 2 vending machines and no matter how much I mashed they couldn't be completed. Overall this was really fun!!!
This game is awesome. The minigames were very creative, fitting in the overall theme and simple enough to be done in 10 seconds, I'm quite impressed. It's a strong submission
Nice game! Really took the theme to heart, and felt properly frantic. The art style fits the game very well, and the music is a nice background to the setting. One tiny suggestion - could the cursor automatically move to the textbox when starting a password task? The extra click was annoying in a way that clashed with the intentional annoyingness of the game mechanics.
That was a fun game. Guess I'm playing as the IT specialist considering how often I am having to give passwords. Do none of my coworkers know how to click "I forgot my password" so they can change it through their email XD. Art was simple, but it did not need to be complex and fit the game well. Good submission.
Haha, this game was so charming :) Love the "Hey" sound and how it was on beat with the BG music time to time. Simple but perfect for what it was. It's a great entry; congratulations :)
Also, I'd really appreciate if you could rate my game! :) Any feedback would be awesome.
I came across the password mod so much that I thought for a moment that it was the only mini game. The discovery of the others was a real surprise which made me have a much better time on the next part. too bad that my ability does not allow me to be much better at these mini games
cute game and smooth gameplay. was kinda easy and it'd be better if you add progression to the game (what you can't totally say about our game..) but yeah, it was good, nice entry!
@satacat i tried adding some progression to the minigames, but it was only possible on the Password level (the number of character in the password increases slightly) and the Vending Machine (the number of times you need to press space gets more and more). On both the files minigames, there just wasn't enough space to add any more files 😅
What a good game. Graphic's friendly. I like how the angry worker sounds "hey".But I think there is a trick in "find the correct file"-> when i refresh by clicking again in that worker, i can see where "yes_this.txt" is. So, maybe you need fix this.:)
Its a nice game, with more mini games it could be more fun and engaging. I didn't like that you can restart the current minigame if you click on the red face again. Also, the one where you need to press space bar keeps playing a sound if you keep pressing the space bar even after completed. The art is really nice! Overall its a really nice game!!

Found a bug : you can click on a password task to refresh it and then it's impossible to complete.

Feels like our previous entries to LD when we were making games filled with mini-games x)
