I love them.

Really fun game, well played :)

Maybe reduce the motion blur (and imo the game need to be a little more slow)

I don't own a controller.. This is so sad, I really wanted to play this game :(

Sorry for the late reply, if your still interested in the game, we now have keyboard controls: "WASD/Arrow keys" for movement, "X" for interacting "Enter" for in the menu.

Awful optimization. This game does not run above 20fps, and its average is 14.

Such a fun and silly little game, I really enjoyed the game.

I would love to advertise the game but I don't have a controller to play it please I'll be happy to play it if the game gets updated to be used by the controller. I tried alt tabing the game and clicking back with the mouse to try to use WSAD still did not work. Please update it to be compatible with keyboard. :(

cool

I had a lot of fun playing this game. Great job. 

Hey great game! played it a week ago and forgot to mention it. Well done, I had a lot of fun playing it. Great work! 

Heya, any news on the keyboard and mouse controls? Or is this dead?

(-1)

Thanks for keeping a eye on the project, sadly the student team wants to focus on the coming school year. There will not be a keyboard version of the game.  

We are sorry to let you down

-Team Office hustle

That sucks, it looked like a good game, will you do the same with your upcomming games? Like, abandon them to do another game, and so on?

we are very sorry to hear that, and yes this will happen to some of our games in our study, we cant learn game development just from one game. We shall be more considerate to keyboard users in the future.

it seems that you have a broken download, atleast that's what most of these comments are saying. I downloaded the 64 bit file and it was a empty zipped folder. it had nothing in it, might want to fix this soon.

Hello Pugly,

We have looked at the download links for both x64 and x32 bit and we don't get a empty folder. 

I suggest using winrar to extract the game. (We have used winrar to zip the file).

I hope this helps you with unpacking the game.

-Office hustle

hey! I found another fix, just install the itch.io launcher and it works fine, only problem is that ps4 controllers don’t seem to be supported.

The game wont play for me. It launches, but i get a notification, and the game exits.

the game is not downloading

hello dpars41,

We uploaded the build to Itch.io, and for us its downloadable. if this is not working for you you need to contact itch.io for this. 

Sorry for the inconvenience,

-Office hustle

This was a short and simple game! It was definitely a nice, chill getaway from the difficult challenge games that I play most of the time. The music matched up with the game really well and reminded me a bit of the Wii shop music. I got stuck on a puzzle at one point and felt totally stupid when I finally figured it out! I had a blast playing this and would love to see the game extended or maybe some procedurally generated levels added. A level creator would be a pretty awesome addition as well! There are just so many different ideas that could be packed into a game like this to make it an actual full sized game. It has a lot of promise. Thanks for making this!

A super fun little game. Played well and had no problems. Music and sounds were good and extra zip music when seen was cool. Graphics were crisp and colourful. Overall a very good job on this. I enjoyed playing it... :)

great game.  fun game on the last level it was easier/faster to  let them chase you, i don't understand why people say you need a controller was just as easy to use (WASD) for movement and (X)  to activate stuff/hide and (enter) to start the game .. keep it up would like it if you could throw coffee cups to distract some of them . again great game cant wait for more levels

I wasnt gonna download it but when i saw ur comment I downloaded it 

aand it doesnt work...I get stuck at the menu

pressing enter did work for me but you can try this way it dose work just done it. 

Atl+tab so their is a file/folder open above the game  and use the mouse to click on play and the game will start.. 

video is not the best but you can clearly see what i do. (for some reason when i use the PC built in record it shrink the game) 

hope this helps

Thank you for making a tutorial for mouse users. is it oke if we use this video as a guide to help other people play the game?

(+1)

yeah go for it it's not the best video but by all means use what I've put and make your own version.

Fun little game cant wait to see the full game

it is not letting me download

Hands down the funniest game I've played on my channel so far! Great job! The only thing I would of recommended is a "Congratulations" or "Thanks for playing the demo" screen. But other then that (dumb) side note awesome game!

Office Hustle is a great game. I was worried when it said controller was strongly recommended as, I don't have one handy. Thankfully I could play your game just fine with a keyboard i'm sure it's a lot smoother with a controller though. I like that the AI provides a challenge but, it's mega hard.

Please make it compatible with keyboard!

Nice student game. I would recommend put a warning or something on store page that is necessary use of controller. Almost give up playing this game because I don't understand what happen with controller.
Tip for future game: Put a volume slider, even if is basic, it help if I was listen some podcast or making some video or livestream.

really fun stealth game with a nice office theme, not sure who the jerk is that is stealing papers

Sadly the game doesn't work for me. I get stuck on the main menu, and can't get the game to play. I tried using my mouth and keyboard.

controller required

Nice, short game. Had some fun. 

When I launched it, the mouse disappeared and I tried everything like the arrow keys, wasd, enter, ect. Nothing. it seems theirs a bug in the current version that makes it unplayable, I can't get past the menu.

Use a controller

I don't have one, this is a pc game, it should have pc controls, a controller should be an option, not a requirement.

It's sad to hear you were not able to play the game. This game has been made as a assignment for our education, and one of the requirements was to have it controler only. we are working on making it work with keyboard and mouse. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Well, when the keyboard and mouse update will be release, I would love to play it. Since its controller only, is this on consoles?

Is this game compatible with a 32x bit processor?

We have no idea if the game works for a 32x processor. We Build a new version of the game in x32 to make sure you can enjoy the game. We hope you have a good time with the game!

Thank you for making this game it was a lot of fun and why it was laggy was because I had other stuff running in the background that I didn't know was running and also the recording software but thank you for making it :)
