  • Updated title: Wandering People → Pardon Me?
  • Updated description: Wandering People is a third-person walking simulation game that captures the lives of drifting young people. Through the process of wandering for extended periods, players will directly experience the agony and deep contemplation of youth. → Pardon Me? is a customer service game where you use your mic to talk to customers. Try saying, "I'm so sorry, but I can't help you." But don't just use your voice—keep your hands busy with your mouse and keyboard to give them the best support possible.
  • Updated long description: <!--textBlock--> <!--title--> # Just wander. There could be many reasons why, but maybe the reason doesn't matter all that much. <!--text--> The goal is simply to spend time in different places, drifting along. But as always, time feels incredibly slow in moments like these. Keep this in mind: one second, one minute, and one hour in reality is exactly the same as one second, one minute, and one hour in this game. Wander for as long as you can. Going straight back home would only feel lonely. <!--textBlock--> <!--title--> # Wandering People is a simulation game where you can experience the emotions of young people drifting without a fixed destination. <!--text--> Key Features: - The Flow of Time : Time in the game flows exactly the same as in reality. For example, 8 hours must pass in real life for 8 hours to pass in the game. - Boredom : Time doesn't pass as quickly as you think, and it can be boring. You will realize that reality is much the same. - Gameplay : There are no complex controls. You simply walk or sit on a bench. - Confined Space : Currently, the wandering begins in the isolated space of a subway. Experience the aimless journey amidst repetitive scenery. - Expanding Journey (Early Access Plan) : While it is currently set in subway stations and trains, we plan to gradually expand the locations for wandering as development progresses. <!--textBlock--> <!--title--> # Caution <!--text--> This game explores themes of depression and isolation. Please be advised that you may encounter heavy emotional portrayals during gameplay. → <!--textBlock--> <!--title--> # "Emergency: I'm broke." Which means no matter how toxic, exhausting, or unfair this job gets... quitting is a luxury I cannot afford. <!--text--> Welcome to the front lines of customer service hell. In Pardon Me?, you must use your actual microphone to talk to customers and gather the crucial information needed to handle their requests. But you’d better watch your step! I have zero dollars to my name, and getting fired would mean absolute ruin. Please, I need this job. Keep your temper under lock and key, absolutely no cursing, and treat every customer with the utmost respect. If only this were some grand fantasy world filled with monsters... but no. These are painfully ordinary people making "perfectly reasonable" requests that will slowly drive you crazy. You can't just use your mouth either—you must keep your hands busy, racing against the clock using your mouse and keyboard to look up data and log complaints while maintaining a polite voice. Oh, and one more thing: need a bathroom break? Got a real-life emergency? Too bad. In the real world of live customer service, there is no pause button. Once you log in, the calls keep coming, and you are locked into this unforgiving real-time chaos until your shift ends. So, go to the bathroom beforehand. Keep a glass of water next to your desk, and test your mic. Are you ready? Good. Now put on your headset and get to work. Chop chop! <!--textBlock--> <!--title--> # Notice <!--text--> A microphone is strictly required to play this game. Please prepare one!
