A short, narrative, dystopian office survival game. Play as Job Cyphus, a newly-hired programmer eager to deliver value. Ship code to eat. Optimise your nootropics stack. Stay sane. Cope with HR's passive-aggressive pings. Climb the career ladder. Retire early (if you can).

A niche title for anyone trapped in the corporate matrix. Doubly so if you're a programmer.If you know the grind, you'll get it.

Break the backlog curse:

• Can be finished in a single sitting
• More if you're aiming for multiple endings or achievements

I hope you have pleasant associations with DM pings. You are going to hear them a lot.

Your KPIs? Lines of code. You don't produce, you don't eat. It's that simple.

Find the optimal balance of stimulants and mood-stabilisers to increase your output while staying sane. Unlock new consumables with each promotion.

Each promotion brings higher earnings and pressure. Save enough to hit your retirement target and escape the rat race.
