Target: Restaurant ! by illugion

made by illugion for LD25 (JAM)

This was my first ludum dare ( and my first game ! ) and unfortunately I didnt complete it in time, i hope you guys like what i've done :D
Your objective is to make other people get fired so you can take their job and then become the owner of the restaurant! ( but thats not yet possible )
I entered the jam alone ( I shouldnt have done that ) and i only had 2 days to do the game so that's why i wasnt able to complete it :P

Controls:
Up Arrow - Enter Doors/Talk
Down Arrow - Pick up things
X - Use things
Z - Interact with objects
Esc - Close
( oh and there is an easter egg if you press a super secret button )

Really nice pixel art. I thought it was a fun idea, well executed, there just needs to be a little more gameplay.

The art style was fantastic! Even though it's so short I loved the endings.

Its nice, but I'm not sure if its possible to get the waiter fired. The graphics however were nicely done, and its a shame you didn't have more time to finish...

Thanks a lot guys! I'm really glad you liked the game and the art :D I'm planning to finish the game later and then post a link to it somewhere but i think it will take some time XD
To make the waiter get fired you gotta make him fall but you can't get caught by him ( there is a line of sight that i didnt indicate, sorry XP )

My team did 8bit graphics also, and I can say they look great in games like yours!

Very good game for what it was. From realizing that I could pick up a banana to realizing that my target was the waiter to getting fired by being caught to realizing that I had to do it while he wasn't looking, I think things flowed very nicely. Sad it wasn't finished, it has so much potential. Keep up the good work!

Good start. Looks like it could be fun with more time to develop it.

Great style. But I didn't find the easter egg!

It's a very fun little puzzle game concept, but unfortunately it's very short (at present). The visual style is great

Neat concept. Something like this could be expanded indefinitely, so I'd suggest if you have the time, go for it! I enjoyed it, and I'm sure with more content, it could become an interesting take on the puzzle genre. Congrats on your first game! :D

Sounds like a fun game, but I cannot run windows. :( Awesome that you got something entered though. Good luck!

I made the game on construct classic so i think it only runs on windows =/ i wish i had a Construct 2 license so i could make a web version maybe

Thats weird.. i looked up for this error and it seems that some configurations on the computer can conflict with construct classic, i don't know how to fix that, sorry.. i'll try using another software next time =/

Feels like the start of a fun little game here! Just wish it had a little more gameplay fleshed out, but it's promising. And looks great!

Interesting concept, good art, shame it wasn't finished. I was kinda confused when I got the waiter fired and the game abruptly ended. :p

I liked how this game reminds me of the Ace Attorney series (because the boss is points and yells... just like the "Objection", etc).

I really like the Ace Attorney series :D i didnt even think about it when i was doing the game but yeah it reminds me of that too haha XD

Superb artwork, in only one day you say? Excellent work! I missed sound? Nicely constructed puzzling, funny and compelling. Thank you!

I like game idea, it's original and fun. Also great graphics. This game has big potential, you should do a post compo version with more jobs to ruin.
