ADMIN 2 IS IN THE WORKS!!

Admin had been enjoying an unexpected late success here in Itch.io. I was surprised to find this out after years of its release, and I FINALLY took the time to fix the game music which was broken because of Godot shenanigans (thanks 3p0ch for the help). After some consideration, I decided I want to make a sequel (or rather the "full" game) to Admin! I still have the sketches of other rooms I wanted to include in the original game, but didn't have time to do so. I'll working on that, little by little and on my own.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It’s a fresh new year and you have a fresh new job! You thought being an IT guy would be easy, but your boss gives you a huge challenge right on the first day. Turns out that, after the new year, everyone in the office seems to have forgotten their computer’s password! Now you have to play the detective and figure out how to unlock the computers in the office.

Click the "?" for a hint, you get a new hint every minute.

This game was made for "My First Game Jam: Winter 2021" which had the theme "Locked"

awesomeeee game, so creative!!!! had so much fun playing it :) took about 40ish minutes but could be finished in 25-30!

(+1)

It could be finished in under a minute probably if you know the answers

(+3)

Loved it! How cute and fun. The characters were super charming. Thanks for the little reprieve!

Im actually dumb erm

If you can't type for some reason press on the type password section ( I had this problem and I KNOW somebody else is just as dumb as me )

oh also the game is nice I like the art and it's really entertaining :DD

(+4)

The best part was when I drank from the paint can.

Me after Dora asked me what my favorite part of the episode was:

(+2)

i loveeeee puzzles and figuring things out, this was such a fun game!! i just wish it was longer and am looking forward to the future admin 2 :eyes:

(+1)

Admin is one of the very first games I did a video of on my channel when I first started, and it has baffled me that - over two years - it has been the most consistently viewed video I have, quietly and steadily increasing in views as time goes by. It truly was a joy to play and I think it's awesome that you're planning to expand the game into something more. Can't wait to experience it! :D

(+2)

I really enjoyed it, the game is fu, the conversations are not too long and the puzzles are just perfect. well done

(+1)

HeHeHaHa typing error

(+1)

funnnnn. :)

(+3)

Just a heads-up that it won't let me continue with Julia's password even though I've got it (and Romero's) correct! A fun game so far, but I'm weirdly locked without a way forward. Have tried hitting the enter key and everything.

(+1)

Check both calendars.

Yeah you have to go through the conversations and other steps that give you hints about the password. Then you input the password guess again on the computer. Progression seems to be tied to completing the steps in order instead of just inputting the right password, for rooms after the break room at least.

(+1)

oooooh I really like the artist lady at the end. I'm quick at forgetting names but shes so cool and cool and coollll!!

(+5)

Very cool, the clues are well placed. I think the '?' button is too attention grabbing, it should be almost invisible. If I'm thinking I don't want it flashing in my face, I want to solve the puzzle myself. The dialogue (and the environmental storytelling) is very funny, good job

very easy

Hi! I'm music producer, and I really want to make some music for that game. I'd even do it for free, but just please.. I can send you a demo, hit me up on discord: zhmprod.

(+1)

Great game! Would love to see more in a similar style with a few tougher challenges

Very fun, good game <3

(+2)(-1)

awsome game, loved every second of i

it*

(+3)

I found a problem: for some reason I get softlocked when solving Romero's problem, it just says I've done it, but the dialogue doesn't show up.

Edit: I touched Enter and it stopped the softlock :3

(+1)

This is incredibly fun, you've got lightning in a bottle here. Congrats on your success.

(+2)

I think I've worked here! This was a lot of fun.

(+1)

What a fun game! Great work!!

It's showing a black screen with music playing. I tried both the website version and installing it from the itch.io app : (

I am on Windows 10 if that helps.
