This was a pretty cool point and click adventure game. The graphics are well done, I love the pixelated art style, and the writing is funny as hell. I love how writing in this game constantly breaks the 4th wall, especially when making fun of the developer. Also I was really surprised by the games story and how it fit into the world. You start the game with such a simple objective and then through a series of crazy events, it all comes down to one moment of clarity that reminded me a lot of "Dude Where's my Car." The only thing this game is missing is sound, unfortunately the developer wasn't able to add it in before the jam was over. But aside from that, this was a well made PnC adventure and I'm curious whats to come next. I did a video on my experience with the game if anyone is interested.

Dude does this have sound? I feel like my sound is definitely turned on but when I play I hear nothing...why is that? I wanna play, it makes me think of Brutal Legend but I wanna hear it if it has sound...
Great job on this game! I really liked Emmet as a character and could easily follow his motivations. I thought Emmet and the bum looked really good and I liked how the scene was used differently.
Keep it up!
PS: I found two bugs but didn't check all the comments below to see if anyone reported them. Sorry if it's redundant.
When first controlling Emmet, before attempting to knock on the door, the hotspot by the chairs and cases is the "Bus" while the bus is further off screen.
Using the mousewheel to open the inventory exits to the desktop and closes the application. I'm using a ASUS ROG Laser Gaming Mouse in case it might be hardware specific.
Really nice graphics and funny game! I included it in my compilation video series of all of the Adventure Jam games, if you’d like to take a look :) https://youtu.be/7pO41Hy6bPY
Hey guys, love your game! :) Would like to make a LP about it but need to know if you will add music soon so I'll wait a bit if it's in the near future :)

The Story
Touring with a famous rockband? Living a life full of Sex, Drugs & Rock'n'Roll? Sounds great! Unfortunately, Emmett, the eponymous roadie and hero of our game, has got other things in mind right now: He lost his backstage passport while partying hard last night, so the grumpy doorman won't let him in - and he's already late for his shift.
Will "Em", as he calls himself, find the pass and manage not getting fired?
