Burger Girl's Funky Shift: 済世 by PeronJames

[raw]
made by PeronJames for Ludum Dare 48 (JAM)

Not everyone can be a hero.

Not everyone leads a glamorous life.

But everyone is the hero of their own story.

And those stories should be told.

Burger girl is an immigrant. She's got a shit job at a shit spot and a nice car on cinder blocks. Whatever life throws at her, she keeps going, hoping for a better future, no matter how far away that might be.

This game is a window to another world, a single shift in the shoes of someone else, a look into the first circle of minimum wage hell. pythonw<em>CpnBdLgxOb.pngpythonw</em>bBklS5QQ7N.pngpythonw_6jKR0b3Pv6.png

Woah, I was not expecting to find a visual novel of all things in this jam. It was a fun romp, though I wonder if there were any alternative endings, since the end felt kinda of sudden to me. Also, I love the music (Got to be real is one of my fav songs), though the fact that the soundtrack has lyrics kind of clashes a bit with the text format of the game.

All in all I enjoyed it, and the sudden end only made me want more. Keep it up!
