Congratulations on your first game!
It's good fun! :)

One little logic bug is that the wifi password can be different during the same session, but that's not really a problem.
One more piece of feedback:
I only understood the red progress bar when replugging the power cable after my third try - it looks like it's actually on the paper.
A quickly comprehensible way to show the progress would be to draw an arc around the power cable displaying the completion.

Anyway, nice game, you should put it on itch.io!

Thanks for the feedback.
There are indeed some things that are not as obvious in the game.
I wanted to add more instructions into the game but i ran out of time since i made it for OneGameAMonth
so the instructions i put in are kind of minimal.

I will try to have somebody play test my next game cause the thing is when you play your own game you of course know
how it all works and little details like the progress bar you mentioned slip trough the cracks cause its always obvious for the person making the game.

By the way thanks for the tip on putting it on itch.io!
I added it to the site https://drnotthatevil.itch.io/printers-are-from-hell luckaly it was really easy :)

Well you know what they say: "Any game were a demonic printer attacks you with papershurikens ten seconds after you've started is a game worth playing"

Seriously thou, I had a lot of fun playing this one, just wish the window was a bit bigger :)

Thanks am happy that you enjoy playing it!

the window is kind of small this was more of a drawing issue then anything else.
originally it was supposed to be bigger but due to time constraints and me not being able to draw quickly i decided to scale down a bit.

Venting some frustration over a printer not always doing what you want?

Kind of ya
there not always doing what i want.. lets just say they never do what i want
i have had some stressfull family members run into my room screaming "I HAVE TO PRINT! BUT ITS NOT WORKING"
and i as the technical guy in the house can fix it all.

The world should switch to digital. It would save headace, trees, inkt and maby even lives.... okay maybe not that last part.. but still
