A downloadable game

Experience the joys of working at a dead end job: learn the value of hard work, utilize the power of synergy, and realize you're nothing more than a dollar amount to the Fortune 501 company you've given half your life to! Remember: work isn't supposed to be fun — please report any employees you spot having fun to upper management for immediate termination. Have a mundane work experience, #036.

🎨Development

Fortune 501 was initially made in 48 hours for the Micro Jam 36, with the themes 'Fortune' and 'Random Generation', interpreted as working for a Fortune 500 company that didn't quite make the list and randomly generating employees to fire and hire. We had initially put extensive planning into making a game about hiring monsters, disguised as humans, which got scrapped at the last minute.

Development has certainly been a fun and windy road, taking 2 extra weeks and 3 sleepless nights over the deadline, all to make a game that is still buggy and unfinished: one with a lot of heart and love put into it, and I would do it all over again if I had the chance.

"Meeting everyone for the first time, has been so exciting and fun and truly amazing: I truly can't thank you all nearly enough for putting so much of yourselves into this little game made just for us."
