A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

JAS! is a short visual novel that has a large focus on story and art to depict the chaotic and creative world that visualizes a specific perspective of an artist grappling with imposter syndrome and a competitive job market. We follow the story of a semi-recently graduated illustrator that is given a new push to find a job with the threat of imminent death.

How would you respond to such a situation?

This is the very first demo! More updates on the way as we develop the game.

This demo is so cute!

I love the mixed media style of the game, and love the premise. Applying to jobs in the game was about as stressful as doing it in real life, and I even got rejected like in real life too! Yay!

Anyways, I loved it, and can't wait to see a full game from this. It's cute, a little weird, and has a lot of personality and fun little mini games. Good luck on this one, and good luck on the Kickstarter!

Thank you so much! A lot of this game came from our collective experiences looking for jobs right now, and honestly I hope that things start looking up for everyone. Really appreciate your support!
