My Computer by QC Pips

[raw]
made by QC Pips for LD36 (JAM)
You're a 3D artist who needs to finish a work until tomorrow. Unexpectedly, your Macindows 10 updated 12 updates of 7326198. You can't wait that long to finish the update so you're forced to use your old computer. Will you be able to save your work before your computer goes in a blue screen of death?

Objective: Fill the saving bar

Gameplay:
The bar will be filled automatically. It would stop if the unit starts making noises. You need to hear the different noises that your unit will make. Click specific areas of your unit to keep it from hanging. Each noise corresponds to a specific area. Unable to respond will make the computer hang. Accumulating 3 mistakes means blue screen of death or game over.

Simple, funny, and brings back a lot of memories from doing the exact same thing while modding Morrowind; I recall lots of glitched dialog boxes and computer-smackings, especially when it would crash after hours of work.

Nicely done! I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one who thought ancient PCs would work for the theme. :P

Funny game, definitely fitting for the theme. Great idea! Sound is very loud though had to turn it way down.

Would be a thumbs up for the idea. but piggy because the windows manager is not "real" (can't resize or move the credit window).

this game was pretty simple, but a funny concept. when i started it up i wasn't sure what to expect, but the concept made me laugh. the controls worked as expected, and i loved the throwback visuals of the old windows OS, haha. good job!

My machine started making a loud humming noise the other day; I hit it and it stopped. 10/10 would hit technology again.
