this is a very fine game, it works great and its really easy to understand. the only downside i noticed is that the days are way too long, so i didn't really continue playing after the second day. but still, good job!

Developer(+1)

well, they are 4 minutes, which I think works pretty well, but maybe not. Also, the game adds new features on days 3, 4, and 5, then ends on 7.

Submitted

I get it, it's heavily inspired by Papers Please, but the gameplay loop of having to type a number over and over became tedious right away. PP relied on your ability to find and memorize the conditions of valid documents, but it seems you completely rely on typing numbers in this case.

Developer

ahhhhh thats a good point. It might have been better to make the rules tab more important than, using a long list of valid countries or something.

Submitted

Nice one! Very chill game initially with more layers where I actually need to focus >:)

Developer

Thanks! The intention was to create an exponential difficulty curve after a short period to learn the game, then some time to fully master the new features.

Submitted

Good game!

A bit repetitive the first days, then it gets more interesting, maybe 7 days is a bit much?

Still enjoyed it

Developer

yeah, the people who play it have a very varying ability to quickly learn the rules, which is why there's a few days with nothing new,

Submitted

I saw it in bytesized's live stream and It looked cool! Played it, and, it's fun!

Developer

thanks

Submitted

Is there no win or loose screen at all?? , fun fact if u spam click red or blue button like 50+ times it will reject or accept 50+ ppl  automaticaly so u  dont have to decied for like 10+ secs

Developer(+1)

there is an end screen at the end of day 7 and it will punish you for doing that, too many mistakes gets you the bad ending

Submitted

Am I winning?

Developer

If you've made 10 or less mistakes and are getting good money then yes

Submitted

I like it, the art is awesome. Accessories to the characters would be great

Developer

thats a very good idea. I wish I thought of that lol

Submitted

Very nice!

Developer

thank you

this is an awesome game! some feedback: 
art is super cool and the procedural(?) people was probably hard to do
big fan of how straightforward the UI is and how easy the game is to understand
the gameplay for the first two days is a bit repetitive so it might be more fun to add in people who have a lot of mistakes (kinda like in papers please) or some small plot line that gets teased early so the player wants to keep playing
could also be nice to make the buttons light up when you hover, small thing though
music is really nice and fits the vibe 
overall this is really cool stuff!

Developer(+1)

the procedural is most of the code, but I'm not gonna lie it was just really tedious.

Submitted

That was fun! Very lively music and I love the resort logo

Developer

thanks!

Submitted

WOAH, that had me LOCKED in more that a papers please game. I'm not sure , but you really made a well balanced system. The fact that is expands into the police reports too is just the cherry on top of the resort's sunday! 

Developer(+1)

Thanks, but just to let you know, you completely missed the new feature that gets added on day 4 since you didn't read that email.

Submitted

You're welcome. 

I'd suggest making the email a mandatory pop up then if it's so important. It will also feel like a reward, instead of feeling like work having to check on emails... 

Developer

hmm... Good idea. I honestly ran out of time and added the little exclamation mark in the last 20 or so minutes I had to work on the game. Should have focused more on that.

Submitted

Art's nice! UI's nice! I  guess the little guys are the numerous people you're approving.

The gameplay a bit repetitive though, or if it's not repetitive then it might be a tad too slow paced. Might also be a wee  bit hard to see the ID number...

(My dumba** also got confused at first and started searching up the characters names instead of the ID number and deined people because I though invalid == denied entry. "My JoB iS sO eAsY!" ROFL)

Developer
