About
It’s your first day as the new intern at the Star Cut Magazine company and you notice very early that something is off: all the employees talk about hair, they have the same haircut, and no one is friendly to you. Moreover, they seem to have forgotten what innovation and originality are, together with the old spirit of the company. It’s time to step up and find out what the hair happened to the company…
You need to understand what is going on in the office and most importantly understand why you were hired if everyone treats you badly. Get to know the company’s story by talking to your colleagues and by exploring an office filled with environmental storytelling elements, combs, brushes, scissors, and “fishy” stuff…
Your colleagues seem to have lost their sense of initiative. There’s no better way to solve the issue than by showing your willingness and think out of the hair - pardon - out of the box. Complete the tasks you are assigned by solving fetch quests and environmental puzzles.
Corporate Cut is a small indie game made by 7 students coming together for the Game World Design course at ITU Copenhagen. We presented the game at TAGS, during the Copenhagen Gaming Week 2024, and won the award for “Best Student Game”. We also showcased the game at the Nordic Game Conference 2024 Malmö, Sweden. We are happy to share this little design experiment with you. If you wish to contact us directly, feel free to reach out via social media!
Thank you very much for playing!

Really interesting storyline as well as the overall vibe and need for thoughtful consideration of our actions. I really like the concept and enjoyed a bit of hairy/happy play
What a unique and intriguing experience! An unusual and uncanny game that feels self-aware for satirical nature. I thoroughly enjoyed the creativity of using the wig to restrict access to certain areas, creating an interesting gameplay loop. I would love to see this game continued and the relationship with the janitor and the rest of the workers expanded! I hope this fun game gets expanded in the future
Amazing game, although short, it is quite stylish and hilarious. The references throughout the game were spot on, it shows that the game is made by people who actually care about the intricacies of the film industry, and do not care for capitalism and conformity.

The game is simple and easy to play while being educated at school. Kinda annoying with the wig. But thats the whole thing i guess (briliantly evil)
My wig was snatched by this game. Great hair puns and a fun game to explore, made with love!
Big like
Consiglio caldamente, nella mia vita ho sempre avuto problemi a riconoscere le cose DAVVERO importanti e "vedere" ciò che mi circonda per quello che è realmente. Di base non è cambiato un cazzo ma ho capito che una pettinatura diversa potrebbe aiutarmi a mettere in prospettiva le cose. 10/10 non riesco a leggere bene cosa ho scrittp perche l mio PC è posizionato leggermente in altp e faticpp a vederw
"Corporate Cut" is a snip-tacular dive into the bizarre world of Star Cut Magazine, where bad hair days are the least of your worries! As the fresh-faced intern, you’ll comb through a labyrinth of hair-obsessed colleagues who seem to have left originality on the cutting room floor. Between unraveling office mysteries and untangling workplace conformity, you’ll find yourself "thinking out of the hair" (pun intended!) to revive the company's spirit. With quirky puzzles and plenty of lore to brush up on, this game is a fringe experience that cuts through the monotony—just don’t let the strange stares shear your confidence!
A short, cute game about the adventures of an intern trying to fit into a new workplace. The gameplay is simple but the heart of the game lies in the good writing and references to the real world. Also, the art style is quite charming. Hair/Hair, would wear wig again!
Good game! Enjoy! I spent 20 enjoyable minutes! #McFratm
