Unemployment Simulator 2018

I needed to jack off so I wouldn't die of boredom but then I got killed by a spooky skeleton mid nut.

The most realistic unemployment game you'll ever play. Don't mind the eldritch horrors, there's a lot of honesty and truthfulness to this one.

Games as art is cool and all, but employed people also have emotional pain and deal with societal pressure? The commentary is pretty limited and it's mostly an excuse for cool weird ♥♥♥♥ to happen over the course of two hours. I got this in a Fanatical bundle for $1.50, I wouldn't recommend paying much more than that.

WTF did i just play?

Wow, what a ride this was. I got this game for a little over a dollar in a bundle and was expecting a cozy, silly management game about unemployment. It definitely was pretty cozy, but what I didn't expect were all the twists and eldritch horror elements. They completely caught me by surprise and honestly just made the whole thing even sillier. Don't get me wrong though, this game can get genuinely eerie when it wants to. The sound design and music do a lot of the heavy lifting and set the mood surprisingly well. One minute you're doing something completely ridiculous, like fighting a giant robot with a lightsaber, and the next you're being chased by a skeleton while making a sacrifice to the underworld. That sounds like it shouldn't work, but I'm telling you, this game somehow pulls it off. The sheer absurdity of the story hooked me pretty quickly, and I found myself not wanting to put it down until the credits rolled. It's unique, and it's the kind of game that's going to stick with you. I think it's worth the full asking price, but of course it's an even better value if you can grab it on sale. Side note: The game didn't launch on my Steam Deck at first. Changing the compatibility tool to Proton 1.0 fixed it without any issues. It's on the first page of the compatibility settings, so it's not a hard fix, but it still sucks that it needs any tinkering at all.

freaky pixel game, like

Looks cute and fun, unfortunately unable to play and will be requesting refund. Found out after purchasing and running it only to get black screen that if you have dual or high resolution monitors there is a major bug that prevents it from running. Ran through every option from unplugging the higher resolution screen, launch commands, html cache files and even forcing monitor to run at lower resolution or running it through big picture mode. It will not launch no matter what i do and ive spent 2 hours trying 10+ methods with no success. It's very sad, I was looking forward to playing it. Just something to keep in mind if you're thinking about playing it.
