Fun little game for a laugh for a few minutes, enjoyed the concept of it 🤣

I played this game in a video I made bringing a few laughs and telling the story of the difficulties of 2020's lockdown as well as coming out of lockdown 😁👍 it's the final game in this video

Actually really really fun! Built some good tension when they all rushed in!
Whoever did the sound, absolute legend!

Thank you so much for your feedback! Sound by Adrian Moore (FRAMED series, Two Point Hospital).

Fun idea!  Hehehe.  

I got confused for a few reasons...

I was trying to nail the picture to the wall, but I think the nails spawn out of the nailgun a bit (too far) in front of you, so I never saw a nail...  I guess they were appearing thru the wall, then shooting forwards.

But hey, it's my first day on the job!  I just can't get the hang of the job, dog gawn dang it.  Dunno how to use my nail gun.  All good.

I finally got into some "trouble" with my boss, and then I just wanted to get into more trouble as things escalated! 

So I was a bit disappointed when it ended.  I wanted to go out in a blaze of extended glory.  ;)  Hehehe.

Nice work!

Thank you for your feedback! I really appreciate it!


Yes the nail gun does appear to be spawning bullets a little too far forward, something I noticed only after finishing the Game Jam haha. Such a simple fix it would have been too


Thank you for your kind words!

Haha!  That's always the way with jams!

I admire that you wrapped it up neatly into a tasty package that was amusing, and had a ending with it's own flavour.  Endings are hard at the best of times, and you made a good one in 48 hours.  :)
