Office Politics was a game concept where you are an intern at a random company (ACME Inc as a reference to the old Roadrunner etc animated shorts). You run around trying to avoid other staff members who will give you pointless jobs to do if they can. Completing them quickly gives you points, completing them too slow gives you negative points.
I made a bunch of videos (see below) of the development. So in addition to game dev stuff, I also got some more experience with video editing.
I liked the idea, but test-players pointed out rightly that I’m combining the most disliked type of quests (fetch-quests) with the most disliked environment (the office).
Sadly, they were right.
I might one day revive this as a different game, maybe a detective story or something. For now, it’s abandoned.
