STRIKE! Bowling for Severance

Quit your job. Wreck the office. Floor by floor, with a bowling ball on a network cable.

Eight years. Five denied vacation requests. Five copies of Form 27-B. This morning HR wrote back: "we're one big family, and families don't take vacations."

You reply with two words. Then you tie your bowling ball to a network cable.

How to play

• Move the mouse. The ball follows. Swing it into the office.
• Each run lasts a few seconds. Smash what you can, collect what they owe you.
• Between runs, spend it on the company org chart: heavier ball, longer shifts, better severance, and copiers that explode.
• Ten floors, from Reception to the Boss's Office. Each department did something to you. Each one answers with a memo.

Features

• A short active incremental: about 20–30 minutes to the end.
• Coworkers who are very much on your side, commenting in the office chat.
• Cubicles, filing cabinets, safes and copiers that chain-explode.
• An old company monitor look, with glow and scanlines (you can turn it off).
• A boss who's been hiding upstairs for fifteen years. Why?
• English and Spanish.

This is a prototype. I'm one person testing whether this is worth turning into a full game on Steam. If you play it, I'd love to know:

1. Did you finish it? If not, where did you stop and why?
2. Did any floor feel too slow or too easy?
3. Which line made you laugh, if any?
