Survive The Day

Getting closer to releasing something for Survive The Day: A game to survive the boring but real ordeals people face everyday in their office jobs.

Can walk around the office as-is here: https://www.loubagel.com/survive-the-day/

Some screenshots:

The plan is to release one level at a time playable on my website for free. Side project and not money hungry on it, so just looking to gain some experience, maybe a few fans, and some feedback so maybe one day I can make something more sell-able.

If interested stay tuned on this thread or click on my profile to follow me other ways!

No link yet, stay tuned!

I work an office job (see username) and I'm looking forward to this! What program do you use for your pixel art?

Glad to hear and thanks for commenting!

I use GIMP mostly (it's free if you aren't aware). But Aseprite is awesome (like $15-$20 but definitely worth it). I just got so much done in GIMP, like templates for the character animations, before I found out about Aseprite. Looking forward to starting out using Aseprite on future projects.

Definitely targeting people that work in offices and deal with all the silly frustrations that come with it—annoying co-workers, printer issues, endless coffee runs just to escape for a minute, etc.

What about you? What is your biggest frustration in your office? Or something a co-worker does that drives you crazy?

Be warned! Your response could be used as material for the game...

A neat concept with great sprite work to back it up. Excellent.

Thanks!

gif I just recorded of turning on some computers:

Awesome graphics and mechanics!

You have potential to create a social game like Habbo. And other games!

Also, the camera position is incredible.

DaniellMesquito Thanks for the comments! Never heard of Habbo before but I'll take a look to see what you mean.

corporatedrone I was about to respond excitedly to your comments, as it is inspiring material, but then realized it is your life I've been there before—sucks! ...username checks out though...

Updated the website: https://www.loubagel.com/

About to upload a version of the office as-is. Won't have game element but can explore the office thus far

Chance to walk around and explore the office with what I have finished:

(let me know if any issues getting to it)

Got a link for you finally: https://www.loubagel.com/survive-the-day/

Everyone's got their own tricks to surviving the day...

No one would notice anything strange, right?

All 4 walk directions done for her now, at least a first/second draft of them.

That was a big hold up...

If anyone wants to try this out and give feedback thus far:

Still working on a few things, such as control tips
