Please Hold
(Controller Required)
▼ New Employee Orientation ▼
Ever wished your controller could be a phone instead? Well, here at Reps Incorporated, now it is kind of!
A very loving and special thanks to my friends:
Mac Ito
Josh Rainboldt
Amira RK
who voiced the customers and brought way more character into this game than I could have ever done.
Made for the 2022 Alt-Ctrl@Home jam.

That is such a creative use of a gamepad! I love it <3 A recap video of the jam entries is available on
Thank you!!
Wow this was harder than I expected. I grew up with the PSX, but now I'm using an xbox controller, so I don't have a good grasp on the colors. Luckily I think doing badly actually leads to the most fun reactions hahaha.
PS: The video is soooo good!
will this work with my keyboard
Sorry, I only designed and built the game around a gamepad, though I am kind of curious to see how this would actually play with a keyboard too...
no biggie :3
Please do make an option for keyboard, I don't have a controller to use for my computer
Ignatious Hamilton is justifiably pissed. I kept putting him on hold and I absolutely got confused by the rotated prompt so I think I just coughed down the phone at him. I didn't like him anyway. The next couple of people got A* customer service because I'm a fast learner.
Voice acting is so rare in small games and yours is great :).
