Description

Work your way to the top of a big game studio in this roguelike deckbuilder inspired by classic JRPGs!

Features

  • Roguelike Gameplay: As a totally expendable employee, you can bet your bottom dollar that every career run will be unique!
  • Work Your Way Up: Manage your schedule wisely as you progress through four different departments in the company. It's up to you to decide when more risk is worth the reward.
  • Strange Company: Encounter everything from toxic players and creative blocks to poorly-optimized code and grotesque meeting blobs!
  • Go Nuts: Harness the unpredictable effects of losing your sanity.
  • Valuable Experience: Unlock new skills, talents, and bosses by leveling up.
  • Timed Hits: Some skills require a little more finesse. A perfectly-timed Schmooze might just save your skin...
  • Labor of Love: Made by a couple who are passionate about roguelikes and retro games.

About Cognoggin Games

Cognoggin Games was founded by Travis and Caroline in 2019. Travis worked at Riot Games from 2008-2014, where he was paid to draw a chaingun-wielding manatee. They met online through League of Legends and decided to try making their own game. Travis currently works full-time on Crush the Industry while Caroline juggles her work with the far more demanding job of raising their daughter.
