A downloadable game

This is my first project, so please, be kind to me.

Join our hero with epic journey in his first office support job. Help other employees, give them equipment that they need, explain how computers works, take care of printers. This office wont work without you!

Don't get distracted by anything else, just to your job. As a reward you will get more tasks to do! There is really nothing else to do here.

Fantastic game. I played up until level 115. Here's some ideas I had:

  • Create task minigames:
    • Plug the mouse into the back of a computer
    • Plug cable into the monitor and pc
    • Open all the hatches to find a printer jam
    • Pushing power buttons to reset servers
    • etc
  • Task ideas:
    • Clean viruses
    • Unlock locked-out accounts - which would give the IT office a use
    • Find lost files
    • Turn it off and on again
  • Move the UI buttons and 'Holding' indicator to the middle bottom to make them more noticeable to players. I played for a while and only took note of the buttons when I needed the map. The pulsing was a good touch. I didn't realize there was an indication of what I was holding until I was writing this.
  • Create a timer based reward/experience system for tasks. Do tasks faster for greater reward and too many failed tasks = fired.
  • Create a day-to-day cycle to break up the gameplay and a more distinct sense of progression, end of day reports, open new rooms, add new tasks, rewards, etc.
  • You could also have special jobs that change from day-to-day, like one could be you have to approve password change emails, but the password requirements change day-to-day. Kind of 'Papers, please'-like.
  • When a new room opened the tasks seem to be focused in that room rather than adding to the overall workload. I think I helped the two hopeless guys in the Senior Room about 10 times in a row. 
  • The emails were great and I laughed out loud at the scam emails. To give the player a reason to check these, maybe the IT guy has to send out warnings about scam emails.
  • Change the name of the "Open Space" to "Cube Farm"
  • If the Senior Room is senior executives, it would be called the C-Suite, as in CEO, CFO, COO, etc. In the U.S. at least.
  • Could add a CEO office for the big boss. His requests would be top priority and maybe insta-fired if failed.

Overall, this is a great start!
