Dave-Man

A game about getting your coffee at work before annoying coworkers catch you!

Dave’s counting down to retirement, as you will see his wife reminding him.

To fully enjoy his retirement, Dave must make as much money as possible in his remaining days. He can then use this money to purchase items to entertain him (and you) on his home computer.

Dave’s job is compensation based pay (meaning you only get paid if you do a good job!) which normally wouldn’t worry Dave…

...unless Dave doesn’t get his coffee!

Risk vs Reward: Choose your level each morning. As payouts increase, so does difficulty.

What happens in retirement?

You will just have to wait for the final game to see!

Dear Valued Customer Nathan,

We apologize you didn't receive your goldfish you ordered. We did send it out standard shipping which should have taken 3 days. But unfortunately the goldfish died due to being in a package for 3 days and not being fed. We will go back to the drawing board to re-think this poorly thought out business model!

Jk! The goldfish didn't arrive because Dave didn't actually order it—when you clicked purchase Dave actually noticed his wife was getting impatient and said "I better get off the computer now." Glad this happened as now I know I need to make it more clear. (as well as some other issues or intuitive things I noticed)

Thanks so much for playing and uploading the video! I really enjoy your enthusiasm and you had me cracking up the whole time! Will definitely check out your other videos...but for now I need to get some sleep! Thanks again!
