Hey dude! Nice game, I enjoyed it while it lasted, thank you. I hope you'll make a longer version of this with more options. Overall the game made me think about: "papers, please". I hope to see work from you in the (near) future!
I LOVED this game and how dark it gets fast. Admittedly I played this game by not doing my taxes so maybe that's why things got dark but I loved it regardless. 10/10
First off I gotta say, I had a feeling there was more to this game than meets the eye. Something about the cheerful music seemed way too off for me haha. My gamer intuition told me something’s happening lol.
I loved how the controls were simplistic as well as the game. This was a neat simulation of paying taxes (wink wink) and totally/definitely not a game that’ll weird you out for sure!
Adulting is hard. Sometimes, it's absolutely mental...
Simple in premise, simple in gameplay, far better than first impressions led me to believe. "A game literally about doing taxes? This can't be all!" Oh, how right I was.
I enjoyed the progression of the game, both in content and pacing. Subtle at first, then more in-your-face the deeper in I went. The details in certain things were also a nice touch, all the way to the end.
If you are on a mac computer you most likely need to right click the file then click open and after that make sure to hit open on the window that pops up.
I really expected the horror tag to be a joke, but the mild psychological horror aspects and the pace of the game is brilliant. Actually was unnerving despite the short playtime.
Was not expecting that, but it was great. I can't imagine making such a great game in so little time. 10/10 would recommend. Also, yes, it's better with earbuds//headphones.
Was an interesting experience. Got through it in 12 mins (Perfect video length, so that made me happy.) Didn't learn how to do taxes like I had hoped to, but I guess the real taxes, are the friends we made along the way.
I must say, the ending took me for surprise. Not going to spoil it, but holy crap...I just loved the whole experience of the game. My only problem with it was the game being too short.

I like this actual factual depiction of tax season!
How come the escape key stopped working?

Oh, and the chiptune Dave Brubek was a fun touch!
Overall, damn fine showing for a 48 hour project!
Very cool! A very realistic simulation of doing taxes xD
i cant play it the file wont open

Serious question: are the symbols a cipher of some kind, or is it just to signify the madness?
really cool game like it a lot was not expect it to have jump scares and a dark end twist.

That was something! Great pacing and awesome idea! Thank you for that game :) Here's my playthrough (polish languague)
cant play it.. every time i swipe a card it swipes another card with it
I'm so glad I played this, it made me jump/laugh in a few places. Some excellent use of visuals and audio. Very polished too!
Today we're doing taxes. All the taxes. We wont get salty...promise...

ive seen some comments but i don't know if they're jokes
edit: the whispers are scary please stop
edit 2: the ominous you are being watched and then the screen freaking out was terrifying. headphones are off now i don't care what you say
final edit: good game. alot less scary when you're not sleep deprived and playing in the dark
NICE
very nice
I knew I hated taxes but I never knew they were THIS scary lol! Really creepy and a good message about getting stuck in a rut!
If only taxes were this easy. I enjoyed the surprise horror aspect of it.
Spoilers:
I stopped playing as soon as I realised that it was acctually probably a horror game...
My favorite part of the game:
omg i was actually terrified
