"As someone who recently stood on the edge and stared into the corporate void and then decided to go a different way, this premise resonated rather strongly with me."

"Dare I hope that dev_hell scratches a similar itch to The Stanley Parable or even Papers, Please when it lands on PC in 2024?"

"It's giving off strong whiffs of Inscryption. As much as I know dev_hell will be incredibly unsettling... I'm in."

"dev_hell is an unserious roguelike with semi-serious gameplay. The game is designed with a specific comedic intent, featuring intentionally generic coworkers meant to get a chuckle out of you."

"I feel like most people who have experience working in the office will find the trailer to be unsettlingly familiar. Everything from superficial interactions with co-workers to bafflingly ineffective 'incentive' programs. It's absolutely too damned real."

"dev_hell is a brutally realistic, gut-bustlingly hilarious take on the mundane realities of the 40-hour in-office workday, complete with performance reviews, horrible-tasting coffee, incompetent bosses, and more."

"I don't know whether I should be excited or terrified about this one. It should probably [be] a bit of both, as dev_hell looks to deliver a tongue-in-cheek roguelike deckbuilder experience that holds up an absurdist mirror to the corporate world."
