Did't like the fact that I had to place the code snips on a small spot when the notifications were on top of 90% of the thrash button. It was ok for the compile button since you don't have to drag stuff to it and can just close the notification. Loved the cat sounds.

Those damn emails!
This is really awesome, and would be an interesting tool for learning programming too.
I really like it.

That was fun! Visuals and sounds were well done, and I liked the humor in the emails that kept popping up.

Ah at last, a coding game! or almost :)

This one is pretty fun, and i quickly grew to already dislike the work colleagues with their spam hahahaha
There is so much room for expansion on this game. There are many ways where you guys could go with this! you could add different coding works like loops? or maybe earn wage to upgrade certain things, either aesthetically speaking or actual game play upgrades.

This game has lots of potential, good job! :)

Super Fun game... If you're a programmer :P
Honestly though I got distracted by that damn email spam way too many times. Well done.
- The Interface (graphics) are nice.
- The audio is on point.
- The emails give it a nice humorous twist.
- The theme is there... the more spam you get the worse it is...same with the code the more bugs you have the worse it is.
- The mood of he game reminds of the JAM itself.. lol
- The gameplay was fairly innovative.

You pretty much ticked off every box there is, Well done!

Hey, fun idea for a game! There were some clunkyness in the editing of code, I would have liked to be able to swap out code blocks by dropping them on each other. Keep up the good work!

very fun to play :) that messages just kept me from using the compile button ;-) I really like all the details like having my system time, changing the OS Style etc :)
