As someone who plays a lot of incrementals, this is a lovely incremental! I'd say the initial pacing was a little quick for my tastes, but the sound style and the execution of the bonuses really do help build that dopamine high with seeing beeg nomber go up. Unfortunately, the game crashed after picking one of the bonuses (doubling cash), but I'd still say this was a really polished and solid game!
Perhaps I'm just addicted to seeing the numbers go up, but this is quite a fun idle game for me. The sounds are great. I wish there was a way to upgrades employees without mass clicking as this takes a while, even with the "upgrade all employee" bonuses. The way in which the map scales up infinitely (I assume??) is just smart and the formulas that keep increasing the prices of new offices just make sense. It's quite a satisfying design and an impressive entry for a ludum dare
Haha! Business! That was addicting and I ended up playing a lot longer than I expected. Great game play and make number go big make brain feel good. Great job! If I had any feedback it'd be that the visuals could be more interesting, but great job!
Great music selections, super well polished. Pretty fun to mess around with for a good 15 minutes or so. Exploring the bonuses was quite interesting. Doing the multitasker spam made me lose the chill in the game, but was SO good for money. Nice variety! Well done!
@innominev3945 Thanks for your feedback, I agree the early pacing could be a bit fast - but I also didn't want it to be slow - I could have spent more time trying to balance that, but I also I felt like faster was safer and "good enough" for the jam situation. Sorry the game crashed, that never happened to me, was it PC or Web?
@winter2277 Thanks for your feedback. My nephew actually suggested something like that and I kind of dismissed it at the time. Reading your feedback and thinking about it now I can imagine a way to make it work. There is and isn't a limit to the map scaling lol... Offices will always spawn, but the camera has a max distance you can scroll to... I'm pretty sure the game would crash from all the game objects before those limits are met lol.
@unfrog Thanks for your feedback. I did want to animate the agents - then I also thought it would be interesting to have them make random poses/postures at their desks too. Jam constraints though I just ran with bare minimum. (I've also been messing with a bunch of hyper casual games with my toddler and the style has kind of grown on me lol)
@t-c Thanks for your feedback. There *IS* an auto-click mechanic if you hold left-click, and auto-clicking the Mail with Multitasker seems to be a decent strategy.
I love the mood! It has a strong dystopian feeling and overall looks amazing. Gameplay feels great, and while incremental games are not my cup of tea, I had fun for a little while on this one. Fantastic work as usual!
