Monday Syndrome

Holy Moly. Ok. I tried 2 times to get into this. Cool idea, has potential, but the amount of issues currently to even be on sale? No way. First issue, the attack animation got stuck. Couldnt do anything. Figured ok, could just be a small issue. Ill leave and restart. Then the next issue presented itself. No way to escape or quit. Thought maybe this was just an issue for me, to not read the keybinds. Maybe the dev didnt make 'esc' the default. So I had to alt+f4 it. Reloaded. Checked keybinds. Nope, esc should be a menu. Loaded back in only to get stuck at a door when an enemy was coming through as well, locking me in place, while getting assaulted by multiple. Couldnt escape again or restart (button not working again) So had to close again. Gave benefit of the doubt at first, but that many issues in 9 minutes? Pass. Hotline miami is worth a replay through versus doing this. Which sucks, because i had been following this. Pros: Cool Idea. Like the idea of powering up through the gameplay. Feels very vamp survivors. Cons: Everything...else? Buttons not working Freezing in location due to multiple entity interaction. Freezing of action being taken so you cant attack. 2 bucks for like 7 min playtime is kind of.. bad RoI. But hopefully it gets better in the future!

The vibe is perfect. The music, the SFX, the fluorescent office nightmare energy… it all lands. It’s goofy but also kind of relatable in a cursed way. Controls feel good most of the time, but in big fights the screen can get cluttered and I lose track of projectiles/telegraphs.

You play as an office worker who grows tired of his coworkers and decides to beat them up. That might sound extreme, but it feels justified because they are literal demons and the entire skyscraper resembles hell. The game begins on the ground floor, and you progress upward by taking the elevator to each new level. On every floor, you move through corridors and offices, beating enemies with either a standard or heavy attack. There is no stamina system, so you can button mash as much as you like, though alternating between the two attacks produces better results through combos. There is also a dodge move, but it is not especially useful. Since almost everything except the walls can be destroyed, it is often easier to circle around enemies. With auto aim handling your targeting, you can focus entirely on attacking. The number of enemies remaining on a floor is displayed, but you must hunt them down yourself. They stay in their rooms until you break through the door, and they will not rush toward you until they see you. Most of them are busy working in their cubicles or relaxing in lounge areas, so you can beat up their colleagues just outside the room without anyone reacting. Floors are not large, and if you miss someone, a helpful arrow points you in the right direction. As you defeat your demonic coworkers, who appear in forms ranging from small imps to horned demons and wield weapons such as staplers and office chairs, you earn money and experience. Once the experience bar fills, you can choose a skill tree to upgrade. At the moment, because the game is still in early access, only one tree is available. Each skill tree is divided into three price tiers, with three perks in each tier. You can spend a single point on one of the cheapest perks or save up ten points to unlock the most powerful options. Early perks include faster attacks, health gained per kill, and increased critical chance. Perks can also be upgraded further by investing additional points to improve their effectiveness. Another form of progression comes from boons, which charge as you defeat enemies. When the meter is full, you choose one perk from a random selection of three. These typically offer bonuses such as increased health, damage, or armor. The twist is that each boon also comes with a negative effect. For example, your character might suddenly yell for a second in the middle of a fight or start running in a random direction. You can also refuse the boon. After completing or failing a run, you return to the ground floor, where you can spend money at a printer to generate weapon modifiers. There are three cost tiers, and the more you invest, the higher your chance of receiving a top tier modifier. The effects are random and can include bonuses such as increased damage or critical chance. Modifiers can be installed into weapons, which are unlocked by reaching certain floors, defeating a set number of enemies, or meeting other requirements. Both melee and ranged weapons are available, but once you unlock a stapler that fires multiple projectiles at once, you may find little reason to switch. However, once a modifier is installed, it cannot be reused. You can replace it, but doing so destroys it permanently. The gameplay loop remains engaging for a while. However, the game is currently in early access, and this is not clearly indicated on its store page. That omission can be misleading, as you might expect a complete experience, which is not yet the case. Achievements also appear to be broken.

Monday Syndrome nails the “managed by evil HR” feeling. The pop-ups and interruptions are such a small detail but they add a weird psychological pressure that makes it more memorable than most roguelikes. It’s funny and stressful at the same time, which is kind of the whole point.

This game has “one more run” energy in the best way. It’s easy to boot up, the action starts fast, and the weapons are consistently funny. I didn’t think I’d enjoy stapler-based violence as much as I do. The only thing is, the game really needs more surprises. More bosses, more events, more floor layouts, more weird weapon combos that change how you play. The loop is already good enough that you notice when you’re seeing the same patterns again Also small gripe: the wording on some locked skills (the early access message) is confusing and made me think I bought an unfinished version or something. Not a huge deal, just… change the text pls. Still recommended, because the fun is real and the theme is unique.

迈阿密热线那样的俯视角血腥游戏。 不是极端快节奏，并且有着更高的容错率。 墙壁可破坏，有各种武器把场景和敌人搅的一团糟。 有中文，有成就。

“企业地狱”讽刺感太到位了。恶魔同事+升职机制这么蠢的设定居然好用到爆（蠢得刚刚好）。玩久了有些房间会开始像在复读，但整体还是玩得很开心。

no way this is the full game
