Game Developed for the 1ButtonJam game jam. All art, animation, sounds, music, and code by TheAverageGoob.
Changelog

Version 1.2.0
Changes
- Modified the movement mechanic. You can no longer stop mid-run. Good luck!
- I changed the Sus system that spawns managers. You can sneak in peace...sometimes!
- The title screen now shows the top Quiet Quitters!
- You can now use SPACE, MOUSE LEFT BUTTON, or on mobile, your FINGER to sneak.
Added
- JUMPING! Press space mid-walk or mid-sprint, leap through the air, and stop on a dime (kinda)
- 10 NEW LEVELS to sneak through (you'll know because the background changes)
- LEADERBOARDS! You can compete against other people quitting their jobs. See who can escape the fastest.
- You can change your leaderboard display name from the title by pressing C, typing in your name, then pressing ENTER. You can use ESC to cancel the name change.
- You can press ESC to return to the title screen at any point in the game (restarts the game).
Fixes
- Animations cleaned up a little, still working on them though!
- Overlapping elements on the door shouldn't be there when it's opened now (no more design files inside and outside the door)
KNOWN ISSUES
Right now, the leaderboards are limited in that you need a unique username, and your UserID changes between devices (Browser, downloaded). So keep that in mind if you can't use your name in multiple places. You can use _(number) in your name if you need something unique. I might migrate leaderboards in the future.
Version 1.1
Fixes
- Fixed Sliding animation after sprinting/walking.
- Fixed best time after game over. Should only score on completing the game.
- Fixed player stopping randomly after charging.
Added
- Doors now display as open when the manager is standing there

Ha! Take that, "THE MAN!!!"
I replied on Youtube, but I wanted to thank you so much for playing! Loved the video, and it inspired me to make some updates as well. I hope you come back for the 1.2 update where I add leaderboards.
Cool idea, the art style is consistent, and the game mechanics fit the jam's theme. Good Job!
Very fun context :) and great use of the 1-button constraint. Congrats!
Thank you so much for playing! I'm going to polish a bit and make some updates. This jam inspired me to make games again :)
Ha! Almost as hard as real-life!
Had a lot of fun with it!
I think the interactable objects could be made a bit more obvious, though, took me a bit of time to understand they were here and I did not have to blindly smash into every glass of water :)
(And I lost a few times before getting to the end!)
feels like you cant lose, its fun tho
THIS GAME IS SO MUCH FUNNNNNNNNNNNN
