Description
Human Resource Machine is a puzzle game. In each level, your boss gives you a job. Automate it by programming your little office worker! If you succeed, you'll be promoted up to the next level for another year of work in the vast office building. Congratulations!
Don't worry if you've never programmed before - programming is just puzzle solving. If you strip away all the 1's and 0's and scary squiggly brackets, programming is actually simple, logical, beautiful, and something that anyone can understand and have fun with!

Quotes (from this video)
- The iconography on this game you got to learn and have the manual right there with you because even though it seems pretty straightforward it took us a while to get a grasp of it.
- It is ingenious how they did that but it's somewhat confusing because I kept had to get my mind wrapped around it.
- However way you plan your tactics will tell you whether you want or lose.
- It's teaching you computer programming is what it's doing.
- It's just a fun little stupid game but it's challenging in that you're having to make sure that your program works and I never feel like you're being penalized when you screw up you just have to figure it out.
