Office Combat is a game about literally fighting a toxic work culture. Made in GB Studio, you play as a side scrolling worker who wants to leave work on time after finishing their tasks. On the way to the Boss's office, many co-workers stand in your way, and they won't let you go without a fight.

It's such a cool game!!! I had a lot of fun! And good job with the musics!!!!

(+1)

Seriously love this game, I want to flash it to a cart <3

Be my guest! I'm glad you enjoyed it! If you have a flashcart you can put it on it! My only ask is that you don't reproduce and sell copies

(+1)

Absolutely! Only done with 100% respect and love for the game. But good call, no worries on that though.

Yeah, I only said it because I haven't before. I'm glad you like the game though, it always means a lot to read people's positive reactions

ayo are you copying Stick to the stick man?That's the same topic

(+1)(-1)

I'd never heard of it before, but the topic is very common for sure

Hello,

With the newly released Analogue Pocket, and the newest update for GB Studios, are you planning to publish the .pocket version of this game? I’d love to be able to play this on my Pocket, so I hope so!

Unfortunately there are some issues when migrating a project to GB Studio 3, so not at the moment. 
I would prefer to work on an updated version that uses GB Studio 3's new sprite features, and make an even better fighting system.
You can download the Game Boy ROM right now though and use it on an Analogue Pocket if you have a flash cart like an Everdrive!

You made me so addicted to your game! You gotta fight me for this!

THANKS !!

Haha. very creative! Thanks for sharing!

(+1)

Neat little game! Had a nice time playing and recording it. The BGM could have had more of a battle theme to it, and some punch SFX would've been great. But still had a good time! Fighting my wife at the end would have been hilarious XD.

Good stuff dev! Looking forward to more projects.

Please check out the video and my channel: VladMan
Thank you!

Glad you liked it, thanks for playing!

(+1)

nice game dude wooowwww :D

(+1)

Thanks for sharing this cute game! You might win an award for the jam...but you'll have to fight the other devs for it!!

Haha, that is true hahaha

(+1)

Hahaha! This made me laugh. Congratulations on some beautiful graphics and animations!

I'm glad you laughed and I'm glad you like the visuals!

for some reason it wont play for me. its the only one so far I've tried that hasn't worked from GB compo. I have loved watching this get developed

You need to walk to the right. If you are playing in browser, make sure to click the game so your inputs are picked up by the game!

(+1)

DOH! I remember you pointed that out in one of your videos. Again, great work.

No problem! It is more a design problem with it saying start, it should say 'go' instead

(+1)

great game, you gotta fight me for this 

Hahaha, when I was writing the dialogue I liked that line so much, I only didn't use it for the Boss

(+1)

Cool game! I really like the concept!

(+1)

Thank you so much!

I will in the future!

(+1)

pleas make part 

(+1)

A short and fun experience. I liked it!

I'm very glad! Thank you for playing!

(+1)

Bruh, why am I so terrible at this?? :))

(+1)

Lovely little project. The pacing and quality of the animation is a beauty. Who said it was easy though, I’m gonna try it on hardware, maybe my phone screen sucks.

With buttons it's super easy to mash, but I'm glad you like the look of it!

(+2)

I played it on my computer and it was easier and I finished it! I love it, if there’s one thing I could suggest, it needs a victory picture at the end, an image of being on holiday with a bruised eye and missing teeth.

That would be hilarious, great idea! Shame I didn't think of it myself!

(+1)

Do it!

(+1)

I will! It definitely needs it!

(+1)

Beautiful concept, wonderful execution!

I'm very glad you think so! Thank you for playing!

(+1)

This was so fun :)

(+1)

this is awesome, keep up the good work!

how long did this take you to make, and what did yah use to make it?

It took me about a month! I used GB Studio, I talk about GB Studio and how I made it on my YouTube channel! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCU_4orRy-j0qTenIZ5BYL4w
