This game was actually really fun! I enjoyed it all, although I got stuck on the first puzzle because I was inputting the credentials into the wrong window. I didn't use any hints, but I still finished in about 15 minutes. The game overall is very fun! I really didn't expect the pet name to come from there though. Very clever with the puzzles!
Just played the game and definitely enjoyed it, Nicely done! Small side note: please snap windows that are too far outside to the closest border instead of back to the center. When someone's intention is to drag the window to the side and it snaps back to the center, that can become annoying quickly... Looking forward to the next slimekeep devlog! :)
Once I realized this was also a browser game, I decided to give it a shot, because it sounded super cool from what I've seen. I have to say, this is a well-made and very fun puzzle game! Usually I don't like puzzles (don't hate 'em, but don't love 'em, either), but this one was actually super fun! I felt so happy when I figured something out, and I almost felt like a real hacker! Super proud that I managed to beat the game without any hints (well, technically I already saw the first hint in the video, so not really-) If you like fun puzzle games, random person scrolling through the comments, this game is right up your ally! I fully recommend checking it out :D
Same lol. Unfortunately started treatment at a clinic and was very burned out from a previous week-long jam. I really wish I was able to work on this jam though I think would have been fun.
You being vague about the game made me want to play it so desperately. The mechanics felt great and after getting to know the layout it got really intuitive. Had some minor hiccups comprehending some prompts, but it quickly evened itself out because there was no overflow of possibilities. Overall I really enjoyed the game, the music and the feel of it. Keep creating!
Cool game concept. I would like to see this be extended into a longer game! Some feedback: - I think it could do do well with animated cut scenes - Option to skip cutscene in botttom right (but disable skip for first time use?) - Higher pixel count for each sprite, so they can look a bit more polished and obvious, as they have more detail. Also clearer text with more pixels You nailed that email and messager sprite they look mad. Well overall the art is good though haha
This game jam was really fun, the theme "Roles Reversed" allowed for so many possibilities. I was to happy to submit a game of my own. So impressed by this submission and by your overall progress as a game developer.
This is fantastic! And pretty ambitious for a game jam. From watching GMTK, I think Mark Brown is really going to like this one! Any chance you might make the windowing code available some time? Would love to see how to do this in Unity.
Good idea, solid grasp of realistic scope and from what we can see here, a nice implementation! Looking forward to giving this a whirl, but congrats already! What an achievement!
This game was actually pretty fun. Puzzles were fire, music was fire, the conversation in chat+ where someone copies the scammers messages and then trolls them to the absolute maximum was fire. 9/10, short but epic game
I loved the game, it was fun but something that can put it to the next level would be a way to lose. For example, a timer when it runs out Benedict will get back on the computer and stop you, or when you put in the wrong inputs on things it will warn Benedict which might get you caught.
@BenBonk , i found a bug that occurs that if in the ending segment, you click the shutdown button again (or at least the place it used to be in), it will replay the ending cutscene, this can be spammed to create a text amalgam in the cutscene due to multiple instances of the cutscene playing at once
Scammer payback does the same thing but once controlled the scammers and wired back stolen money to old people before the scammer could stop it was funny 😂
Its very helpful actually getting to see some of the code behind how this is done :) Not just skipping over it as most RUclipsrs would (labelling it boring; which can be true). Edit: 6:04 jerma sus (we did the same thing when testing lmao)
I wanted to do Marks GameJam as usual this year cuz I thought the theme was really unique fun to a jam. But with my limited knowledge of working with python which I'm still learning with for basic GameDev. My knowledge is very limited at the moment. I gotta admit your game does sound like a ton of fun though Ben. I love me some puzzle games. Also great inspiration to get from as well.
The web version got stuck after my browser extension messes with my typing. So I downloaded the windows version and like it Room for improvement? 1. opening cut scene is not skipable 2. When I have trash and files overlapping, and click on one of them, sometimes the wrong file is opened. Hint always comes before other?
I completely forgot what the games called, but there’s a pixel art game where you mainly play as the murderer instead of the detective that was released not to long ago. The theme really reminds me of it.
Cool idea. I'm just getting into game dev and want to do devlogs. For something like this, how do you go about recording things? Do you just record unity the whole time you are actively working? Trying to think through how to do this.
Nice, good luck! I personally just record mostly whenever I make progress on something, and want to show it off. Occasionally I will also record 10-20 minute snippets of me working to use for timelapses.
i wanted to partake in the game jam but soon realized that i had no idea what i was doing my coding skills were just not at the right level for a game jam
Regarding the poor performance on chrome, have you checked if you have "hardware acceleration" disabled? Chrome allows you to disable it which can kill the performance of WebGL apps
Cool concept :)

Imagine if Kitboga comments, right?
wait a minute

Thanks for taking part, Ben! Congrats on reaching the top 100 🎉
Thank you Mark, and as usual, thank you for putting on the jam!

Oh my gosh, you're right! I completely forgot that I turned that off for some reason awhile ago. Thanks.

Now you need to make a game where you scam the scammers that scams the scammers

I saw that BenBonk has SponsorBlocker. My man 💪💪
Lol shhhhh
Just played the whole game, and it was super fun! I only wish it was longer. If you’ve got a few extra minutes, I highly recommend checking it out!
Fantastic game, wow. I had so much fun playing it, I will try to make something like that in the future.
scam a scammer, thats amazing

Cool game!
A tip for using chrome: try enabling hardware acceleration in the settings that might fix the laggieness.
i love watching scammer payback, and all that channel
6:09 the bottom left💀

You have quite a recognizable style at this point.
Monkai IDE theme, SLAY!
This was really good. Hope Mark feature this game on his upcoming result video.
This color pallet is the same as the one of my school!
I'm traumatised!
It’s really cool how far you’ve progressed since that early hackerman attempt 😮 well done!
I inverted the horror game concept, you are a ghost who needs to scare people
#21 ON OVERALL? damn this game is epic.
Scammer payback does the same thing but once controlled the scammers and wired back stolen money to old people before the scammer could stop it was funny 😂
it's really cool to see unique idea people made for the jam. Really cool idea
Cool concept! Good luck with the jam result
Man, this game was amazing!
He made two tracks for the game, one that sounded like this *Ad starts playing*
lmaooooo
You could also maybe make a skip button for the intro because I already saw the intro because of this video but that is just my opinion!
The low fps of the webgl version might be due to you having hardware acceleration disabled in the chrome settings
7:40 yeah, Unity is like that
I think... I also had issues with it so I assume it's just like that
Good job, it was a fun and great game to play!
I didn’t manage to play the game yet, but I sure hope a character is called “Selor”. Because it’s “Roles” Reversed
0:13 i love making games from "sratch" :D
I want more of this game!! It’s so fun.
This was fun, reminded me of when I was in my early childhood spending my time on AddictingGames or Miniclip. Great job dude!
I really enjoyed the game, thanks for making it!
i loved this game thanks for making it!
Cool game, this reminds me of there is no game wrong dimension :D
awesome video and game! its really fun! i was also gonna be in the jam but our game got corrupted :(
It's look so amazing, great graphic and animations, good idea, great music, very cool!
Its very helpful actually getting to see some of the code behind how this is done :)
Not just skipping over it as most RUclipsrs would (labelling it boring; which can be true).

Love your videos
Pretty sure the lagging can be fixed if you turn on hardware acceleration on your browser
lets gooo your game came in the 21th place
You should add more puzzles or levels to this game
I finally participated as well!
The web version got stuck after my browser extension messes with my typing. So I downloaded the windows version and like it
Room for improvement?
1. opening cut scene is not skipable
2. When I have trash and files overlapping, and click on one of them, sometimes the wrong file is opened. Hint always comes before other?

That describes many stealth games
This game was great. I though the UI was super cute when I played.
He do be doing a Scammer Scam move doe
As a great scambaiting enjoyer I approve. Would love to see this expanded in some way into a full game
That's a really awesome game for a 48 hour period 😁
Real fuckin fun
this looks interesting!
I love it,
and im still waiting for slimekeper
i also face that issue with chrome but it works fine in firefox
what program did u use for making the game art?
Cool idea. I'm just getting into game dev and want to do devlogs.

6:00 why does he have jerma image files?
4:40 is that a reference to lil uzi vert's the pink tape?????
lol
what do you use for pixel art & sounds?
Aseprite for the art, sfxr for the sfx.
This game kinda reminds me of Hacknet
couldn't play this today, its 1 am in the time of writing
0:12 game from sratch
This game is awesome
uno reverse moment
its really good but i deleted all the notes by accident so maybe add a way to unto that?
what coding software do u use and which theme?
A Spotify / volume button in the corner could of been cool for the music
Cool little game, very inspiring.
awesome game i wish it had a better ending like sending everyone money back but still nonetheless a cool game
Cool, cool... I also made game for GMTK jam... It was really fun!
just rated the game great job!

i joined the jam but forgot and by the time i realised it was already 18 hours in, i couldnt think of any ideas and ended up not making a game. :(
Only a guy named Ronald would have the audacity to scam a scammer
Good job, very fun game
wowwwww this game is so cool and fun
