Instructions

Run up the corporate ladder! Each day, you run down the long office hall from 9am to 5pm. As you run, you'll earn money for your paycheck, indicated in the upper left corner of the screen. Press LEFT or RIGHT to move side to side. Press UP to jump and press DOWN to roll. Jump over boxes and roll underneath datasheets.

You have a set amount of energy each day, shown at the top of the screen. You use energy as you run. If you hit an obstacle, you'll lose energy. If your energy reaches zero, you're fired!

As you run, your "Flow State" bar will gain energy, indicated in the upper right corner of the screen. When the bar is full, hold SPACE to enter the Flow State! When you're in the Flow State, you'll move much faster and your energy will drain much slower. Collect yellow XP blocks to earn experience and get promoted. When you get promoted, you earn more money!

At the end of the day, you'll receive your full paycheck and will need to budget it accordingly. There's your Needs - which is the amount of energy you have to run. There's your wants - which is money you can use to buy upgrades such as improving your Flow State rate, increasing the value of XP, or buy a nice hat! Finally, there's your savings - you have three milestones to complete that will increase your savings until you reach retirement!

Budget your paycheck accordingly to unlock new milestones and climb up the ladder to retirement! And whatever you do, don't get fired!
