It's common to see "aHA" moments in puzzle games.  I never thought i'd see a "Oh Shit, oh Shit!" moment in an idle game!

This was Awesome!

(+1)

Wow! Amazing!!

(+1)

Absolute cinema

(+1)

was the knocking on the door the tax man? i didnt risk seeing what it did cause i was so close..

(+2)

That was great! So pacing and comedic timing were so good 😁

(+3)

Snaaaake! Snaaaaake! Oooooh, it's a snaaaaake!

Congratulations on taking the first place at Ludum Dare 58! For a second, I had the thought in my head that this was complete nonsense, not a game, but you should have seen my face how dramatically everything changed and in general I was pleasantly surprised. It's a great project. I can't believe you made the game in 2 days

(+2)

how do I withdraw money?)

(+2)

i was scared.... so kawii uwu at the end though

(+1)

This is genius

(+2)

This was a fun little 5 minutes, banger

(+2)

10/10

(+2)

Absolute banger

(+4)

it was very stressful  

(+3)

what does the window do? can you just keep it closed with no consequences?

(+3)

Pretty much! I never got around to making it a real mechanic - maybe I'll do it in a post-jam build :)

(+2)

oh, pretty nice game overall.

(+1)

What if the laptops were solar-powered, and the longer you keep the curtains closed, the more battery the laptops lose?

And when Tax Man is looking through the window, you need to close the curtains before he breaks in through said window! There would then be an audio cue that would note that he's away from the window, meaning that you could charge your laptops again.


Does the phone do anything, by the way? I imagine that ignoring his calls will make the Tax Man come faster.

(+1)

Yep, that's right! Ignoring him when he calls or looks through the window makes him speed up.

(+6)

This is so good. i was just chillin getting money. that feeling went away fast. I was desperately wanting money.

(+1)

Super fun.

(+3)

Great game! Got really scared there for a bit... but i managed to complete it!

(+2)

I played the game muted, so I have no clue what one comment was talking about, beat it in 1 go, very fun :)

(+2)

Ok... lost once because I usually play most games muted. But: Don't do that here! If you don't listen, you will... well... no spoilers here. I wish, there was a way to continue. Nice game! Thanks!

(+2)

I won while playing the game muted on my first attempt, it was quite interesting.

(+2)

Really good game! I was really not expectingthe genre swap

(+2)

It's good but I was not expecting horror elements. Also players can just leave their windows closed so there's no point in having it and it just makes the game a lot darker.

(+2)

I watched Idle Cub play your game on YouTube. I had to come try it out myself. This game is very well done. It is nice and short, and to the point. The next game I make will be more focused like this. 

Thanks! Huge proponent of small and focused games. I'd love to play yours when it's out!

(+2)

I'm working on it. I'm going to actually be putting my demo online in the next couple weeks. but I'm getting married sunday so I haven't had as much time to work on it lol

(+2)

Dang dude, congrats!!

(+2)

Congrats on the marriage! Also, another fellow Idle Cub fan, I see

(+2)

Congrats dude!!!!

The game won't load for me, but the character art you showed looks incredible!

the first load take a while. but after that, it works. smh I'm working on why that first load takes for ever. I think it's the textures

(+2)

When I was getting to the end, If I heard a loud knock, I would immediately rush to the door and stay there.

(+1)

fun but suspenseful. loved it!

(+3)

Very sudden genra swap.. Intresting

(+1)

I loved this game! so fun

(+2)

(+1)

The game helped me to survive the difficult period of my life! Thank you!

(+1)

Lovely little game! wish it tw'as longer, and a bit more difficult because after auto idle badger it's gg.

Also, what happens if you don't pay attention to the robber/stalker?
