I.T. Never Ends

This is a dark humoured game about I.T. support in an eldritch corp, but the writing is incredibly on point for someone working in IT support. You manage your 4 stats (Productivity, Budget, Morale, and Entropy) by solving tickets, all the while the game slowly fleshes out the world around you, and references your choices. Definite positives of the game: - Music: the music is surprisingly soothing, and fits perfectly this kind of laid back game - Writing: the tickets are written in a witty dark humour, but still manage to capture surprisingly well the real-world corporate environment of IT support (and the humour of its techs) - Cast: the game slowly develops the cast of characters as you solve tickets and repeat runs, and the way this is paced definitely makes me want to learn more about them - Minigames: well picked, and also quant references to the history of gaming (with the likes of Snake and Frogger) As of this writing, there's a slight hiccup with graphic acceleration, as sometimes WIndows will not pick it up unless you adjust it in the settings manually. Might be a laptop thing (due to power modes). Dev helpfully implemented a warning if that's the case on your system so your framerate doesn't drop off. Just... Don't expect some kind of high intensity action, but then again... That's the point! This is a laid back game. :) 10/10 -- Well worth it for the writing and the ambience.

I love this game so much. There are so many entertaining endings to discover :) The characters are charming, and the world becomes more and more immersive the deeper you go down the rabbit hole – iteration after iteration confronted with the eternally same yet constantly changing madness of this game.

My happiness was optimized by picking this up on release day. I stared into the void and the void stared back because istg it feels like I had one of these tickets last week. You can't get much more Real than having a VP of Synergy and a meeting about the meeting about the meeting (isn't this just a retro now? better schedule that too.) If "choices matter" involved chaos, nihilism, and existential dread! ✨ What else is there? Being silly is all we have left. Buy the game.

This is going to get compared to the Reigns series of games, for good reason. Almost every crisis is solved by simply swiping left or right, you have four meters to balance and you get in trouble if any of them get too low or too high, and you're expected to die horribly and repeatedly from the consequences of earlier choices that snowballed. This also has some fantastic writing like Reigns honestly doesn't. Please give this a second look if you're dismissing it. Every so often someone will say a line that hits me like a 2x4 to the third eye, and all I can do is look out the window and feel some emotions I don't normally get before 3am. This is also a game where you can close a support ticket about ergonomic keyboards biting people by writing back, "It's a feature, Janice. Enjoy it." I was expecting a banal office comedy merged with cosmic horror - and, to be clear, I got that. I wasn't expecting to also get a story about finding connection and making meaning in spite of a world long gone mad. To the developer, if you're reading this: Thank you. I needed that, more than I realized. tl;dr: Strongly recommended. Grab a drink, solve some bizarre I.T. problems, and maybe make things a little easier for the next iteration.

Feels like this game was set in Nightvale. Or maybe space. Still working out the details.

A very interesting, fun game! Awesome artwork, lots of interesting little mini-games, and a sense of dread building as you go through the story. I'm only about an hour into my playthrough and I already know I'm going to want to find all the little niche bits! Totally worth the purchase, I can't wait to explore everything it has to offer!

This is how IT work is.

10/10 game. played the demo and i am excited to explore more of the full game <3
