You've found yourself an office job, but the tasks your employers have to doing are far from normal. You are tasked with taking care of and researching a cryptid monster before your boss adds it to their collection.

This game was made by one person over the course of 3 days. All assets were created during the jam except for sound effects and music (which were found online) and some scripts that were taken from past projects.

Game is really funny and I love the art style. It's crazy how much you've done alone in only 3 day, the game looks so clean and polished.

Very pretty, fun and interesting game. I appreciate all the little bits of polish that made it in, like the little sound effects and transitions. Those details can make or break a game, and definitely helped elevate yours.

Amazing art style, really makes the game feel extremely polished! On my first play through I never tazed frank, so I just died, and then I went on to taze him every day, and then I won... So in the end, I wish there was a bit more interesting gameplay, but I was fully hooked!

Polish is amazing on this, the text effects are really impressive! The dialog box looks and sounds great :)

Great mood and eerie atmosphere, I tased Frank every day on my playthrough to be safe so got the good ending first try - was wondering if it was possible to lose but from the other comments here I guess it was the right call to be trigger happy with the taser lmao

I would love to see a full game of this.

You have a fantastic talent for graphics and polish!

I died on the last day as I was being congratulated for doing such a great job, lol

Solid game. Very polished. I hoped I have done it right, it looks like I won but by the wording think about it twice.

not much I can say. perhaps making the items follow you faster when holding them? inventory system? Good job overall.

An extremely polished game. I've played release versions of games that were much worse than this. I especially like the art and the transitions between rooms.

The tone is sharp and witty, gameplay is satisfying, and the concept feels fresh. Well done!

Amazing work! It’s super interesting and has a vert unique way to paraphrase the theme, good job! And welcome to give our game a try! :)
