Well for one, keeping track of when the fake-out "I'm coming over" message comes in, and getting the right timing for clothes removal/dressing. The skirt is more important to keep on than the shirt, as shirtless vs shirted has a lower productivity debuff than skirtless vs skirt on.
Awesome game, dude. Been playing this and excited for the updates. Awesome art and sex scenes, waiting for more. Maybe some sort of progression system could work (days of work, etc.)
it would be pretty cool to see some things to do after work like go to the store or maybe she can go to the conference room if the play feels bold enough to take the risk of loosing alot of time
I agree with one of the comments below that customization could be fun in the future.. My biggest request would be either dialogue variations or just more dialogue scenarios. Like the interns are nice to Candace if she's nice to Steve (or whatever the first intern's name was), or that guy who wants to book you for a conference room next week, maybe if you're really rude to him he comes to Candace and is rough. Maybe Candace can respond to the things people are saying while she's being used!
I don't know how complex adding new dialogue branches is but I think that would be really fun.
Of course finished art would be nice but I know that's already part of the plan. Keep up the great work, loving the game!
In the previous versions I imagined her being a brunette with a blue dress.
Add that, and a horny meter that detracts from her productivity unless kept low, then you have yourself a great game.
ps. Adding rounds/days and more/different tasks to be done in time would spice up gameplay. But tweak the difficulty a bit so it doesn't become impossible to beat.
for next lvls I think more things to juggle would be nice, like she gets an arousal bar that affects her performance. or the company has a busy day and nobody comes to visit, which sucks for morale, so she has to send messages out to entice them to visit her
one of the messages she got wanted a foto of her and she declined, and i think stuff like that could make nice quick time events
the way you answear messages leads to different interactions, which is nice, more of that plz
the folks visiting seem all to be faceless/random people. giving them names and different preferences could add depth. if you know mike is coming over and he's a boob guy you can take of the shirt before he arrives, giving you a head start on him etc.
I prefer the old Candace because of the art work and design but I do love it plss don't push yourself too hard we'll wait for the next update of your game keep it up bruv
I'm inclined to agree. It's hard to explain, but for me it's to do with how her face and hair are done. Her expressions were more "professional" which went well with the whole "getting railed while also trying to focus on getting work done". Also a bit more nitpicky but the desk feels way higher. It kinda gives me the impression that she's well under 5 feet. All that being said, the game is still great and it's obviously up to you what you do with it.
The old one has a colder facial expression and makes it great for ignore sex and stealth sex fetish.
Remaining her professionalism so hard, if nobody sees her naked body, nobody knows she's actually a company's meat toilet. This is what makes her sexier.
For Example,
Here's more examples with bukkakes,
Her getting fucked with calm expression makes her looks like she's a natural free use meat toilet.
To add on to all that, it'd be a nice feature within customization settings to be able to switch to older versions of artwork even if they're incomplete sets or from unfinished stages. It could be included as separate DLC if it triples the game's file size, or it could just be files we can manually replace. I don't know what sort of things might make it difficult to implement, but I'm loving the game either way it goes.
This is a great take and I can see why it's hot. To offer another perspective, I love the new character design for Candace because it's the opposite/complement to what's described here.
That Candace seems like a perfect businesswoman that happens to be a slut and is adept at ignoring the lewd.
But the current Candace is like the perfect slut who has found a way to hack in it corporate life. I love the vibe of her trying to keep composure and generally not being good at it. Her productivity problems might annoy people but no one can really be mad at their employer-provided cumdump for long. (see: the "mistakes in your report" dialogue)
The feeling of sluttiness endearing you to a community or allowing them to gloss over flaws/mistakes is a powerful fantasy this game captures perfectly.
Decided to check this out after playing the demo for Queen's Brothel and subbing to Patreon for the game. This one was pretty neat, got kind of exciting as the timer got down to the wire and Candace completed the report with 2 seconds left!
This game is amazing, its so simple yet one of my favorites! The free use concept is really fun and i cant wait till the next update. Will there ever be a version which you are the colleague instead who gets to use Candace
We're working on new pics right now and then we'll have an update. My January is busy, but I will hopefully make it happen this week. Making games has two difficulties. The first being coming up with ideas that you can realistically do. The second is knowing how to use a game engine and creating art assets.
The current concept is standard office work, add break room, meetings, the bosses office, work from home, etc. Get your work done, to earn money to pay your bills, dont get work done and you could get fired. Could totally be a huge game.
It's surprisingly quite cool and even fun outside of the sexual aspects, the management of time and quick presses do make for an almost addictive game-play loop. The sketch art almost turned me off it initially but now I really kind of dig the style, it's quite nice.
Free use & management gameplay mix really well! Don't care that the art is all sketches, because it is still very aesthetically pleasing. This is going to sound insane, but it kind of reminds me of the original FNAF's gameplay loop xD If you want ideas maybe you could use games like that for inspiration? Maybe an energy meter as Candace gets tired? You do you.
You are actually correct. This game was an offset of a different idea where I was copying the FNAF gameplay loop.
It was about hiding from your manager while you have sex with customers in a restaurant so you would have to look left and right and manage your clothing, trying not to get caught. Very similar to FNAF. I ended up taking the clothing idea of that game out and turning it into this game instead.
Wow, did not expect that, but that's really cool! Thanks for giving me that insight into your process, and I hope it goes well. I enjoyed the game on offer so I think you're in a good place. :)
If I may slide into the conversation, that first idea about the restaurant sounds damn good. Any chances to see this come back as a full game later on ? Or is the idea fully scrapped ? I really enjoyed "Barely Working" so far! But if I can play as a waitress in a restaurant, it's even better ;P
Take all the time you need. I'll make sure to enjoy all that Barely Working can provide while i wait for the restaurant game :D And thanks for your hard work with it all.
FNAF is short for Five Nights at Freddie's, a horror game known for it's hiding mechanics. You have to survive 5 nights with a bunch of hostile animatronics, and your only real option would be to hide from them when you know they're coming.
By far one of the best concepts I've seen. As a giant fan of free use stuff this definitely peaked my interest. The gameplay is simple, lewd drawings are decent and really just needs some polish. Excited to see how this continues. 6/10
Awesome concept. Any plans to expand on the video stuff? Like one guy asks for a picture and another one asks for a video - but you can only say no to either. An option to have Candace flash her tits or something would be cool!
I won't be adding multiple views per pose. I am choosing to have different sex scenes per level which will eventually fill the game with hundreds of poses.
Hey friend. You didn't put the messages and the guys in inherit mode, to pause with the time. I knew I was knowing this buttons. I'm a godot dev too lol xD
This is awesome. I love QB and this concept is even better for my personal tastes. Can't wait to see the final art and have sfx/music added. I'll re-up my Patreon sub in hopes that this game gets more support! Love your work.
As far as suggestions, it would be cool to give Candace response dialogue for the guys who are currently using her as well as IMs. Persistent cum like in QB would be great too, like on the shirt if Candace doesn't take off any clothes, etc. I'll also never complain about things getting rougher for Candace if she's into that!
Editing to add another thought: The "booked you for a conference room next week" message brought up multiple partners, so maybe at some point more than one person at once if they are after different things?
I really love the concept of the game, are you planning to add some animation into the game? If you do then a gallery is absolutely needed, love the art style as well!
I love the game! I was just thinking how most games here are Visual Novels, so there's nothing to just pick up and play, but this covers that niche perfectly!

Great game!!! Can't wait to see the full game from you guys!
I'm leaving a comment to say the game is great.
Can't wait for more updates.
I can't believe how amazing this game is just on the premise and gameplay alone. Once there's some finished art on it and it's easily one of the goats
Finished with a PB of 41 seconds
Well for one, keeping track of when the fake-out "I'm coming over" message comes in, and getting the right timing for clothes removal/dressing. The skirt is more important to keep on than the shirt, as shirtless vs shirted has a lower productivity debuff than skirtless vs skirt on.
mans speed running
Surprisingly difficult! I finished the report with a second to spare, but that might just be my shoddy time management
This is FANTASTIC! Unique premise, great art even if they're just sketches atm.
You perfectly capture the "free use slut" fantasy in a setting I've not seen done in a game yet.
Love the interactions and the multi- micro-managing of clothes/texting/fucking.
If you ever want additional help with writing, I'd happily volunteer. This genre of sluttiness is my JAM!!
Is this a maegan hall simulator
Man, this is really coming together now! Good job!
Awesome game, dude. Been playing this and excited for the updates. Awesome art and sex scenes, waiting for more. Maybe some sort of progression system could work (days of work, etc.)
OMG this is god game
it would be pretty cool to see some things to do after work like go to the store or maybe she can go to the conference room if the play feels bold enough to take the risk of loosing alot of time
New art is great!

Would be fun if players could customize the girl.
In the previous versions I imagined her being a brunette with a blue dress.
Add that, and a horny meter that detracts from her productivity unless kept low, then you have yourself a great game.
ps. Adding rounds/days and more/different tasks to be done in time would spice up gameplay. But tweak the difficulty a bit so it doesn't become impossible to beat.
the juggling of clothes and work/fuck is fun
for next lvls I think more things to juggle would be nice, like she gets an arousal bar that affects her performance. or the company has a busy day and nobody comes to visit, which sucks for morale, so she has to send messages out to entice them to visit her

hey mate can i have the sources for the gifs ?

Thank you. I would like to stick with the player being Candace. Although your idea does sound like a cool idea for a separate game.
I understand. You did a really good job with the facial expressions also, keep it up! do you have any estimate for when the next update will be?
If you dont mind me asking, how hard is it to make these types of games? ( i always contemplated attempting to make one)
We're working on new pics right now and then we'll have an update. My January is busy, but I will hopefully make it happen this week.
Making games has two difficulties. The first being coming up with ideas that you can realistically do. The second is knowing how to use a game engine and creating art assets.
can you make 32bit version for windows?
I believe this version should work on both 64 and 32, have you tried?
this is a really well done game so far!
really enjoyed the game, would be fun to see a whole office management game built around this concept.
that would be epic!
The current concept is standard office work, add break room, meetings, the bosses office, work from home, etc. Get your work done, to earn money to pay your bills, dont get work done and you could get fired. Could totally be a huge game.

Yes, I do plan on finishing the restaurant idea. It is a difficult game to execute, so Barely Working is helping me buy time to flesh it out.
Take all the time you need. I'll make sure to enjoy all that Barely Working can provide while i wait for the restaurant game :D
And thanks for your hard work with it all.
*GASP!!* You could play as Queen before she gets fired!
Hahaha yes, it was going to be the prequel to Queen's Brothel.
what is fnaf a game or mechanics and if game can you give the full name
FNAF is short for Five Nights at Freddie's, a horror game known for it's hiding mechanics. You have to survive 5 nights with a bunch of hostile animatronics, and your only real option would be to hide from them when you know they're coming.
Great game, cant wait for further updates!
By far one of the best concepts I've seen. As a giant fan of free use stuff this definitely peaked my interest. The gameplay is simple, lewd drawings are decent and really just needs some polish. Excited to see how this continues. 6/10
I'd like to see better quality as well. This is a great game though.
Awesome concept. Any plans to expand on the video stuff? Like one guy asks for a picture and another one asks for a video - but you can only say no to either. An option to have Candace flash her tits or something would be cool!
But great game either way.
Agreed

Hey friend. You didn't put the messages and the guys in inherit mode, to pause with the time. I knew I was knowing this buttons. I'm a godot dev too lol xD
Hahaha yes, you are correct. I have fixed this in my current development build so it will be patched in the next update 👍👍👍
Thank you my fellow Godot dev.
I never thought of doing some “simple” and good game like this, you gave me ideas.. Now I just need to try
This is awesome. I love QB and this concept is even better for my personal tastes. Can't wait to see the final art and have sfx/music added. I'll re-up my Patreon sub in hopes that this game gets more support! Love your work.
As far as suggestions, it would be cool to give Candace response dialogue for the guys who are currently using her as well as IMs. Persistent cum like in QB would be great too, like on the shirt if Candace doesn't take off any clothes, etc. I'll also never complain about things getting rougher for Candace if she's into that!

Cheers mate, glad you enjoy the game.
I might be able to add in-person colleague responses, I think that might be pretty cool.
I'll also add gangbang scenes, they are already in the works.
would love some sort of expansion to this game later down the line, actually a great concept
Thank you, I am planning on adding more levels once the first one is completely polished.
I really love the concept of the game, are you planning to add some animation into the game? If you do then a gallery is absolutely needed, love the art style as well!
We will not be adding animations, we will have unique poses for every single state for Candace.
You had me at Office uniform, nice game!
Is there another update coming soon?
Yes, I'm waiting for some sfx and music commissions.
Always good to see more Godot games out there. Keep it up!
I love the game! I was just thinking how most games here are Visual Novels, so there's nothing to just pick up and play, but this covers that niche perfectly!
Looking forward if you add more content.
Thank you very much!
A lot better that what I thought.
Don't remember seeing something like this before. Hope see more soon.
More expressions would be nice. I kind-of like the rough line art.
there aren't enough freeuse games out there so i hope you continue this game. its already really good
in the middle of my gameplay i was like ''WRITE THAT DOWN B*TCH, WRITE THAT DOWN''
it was a very lol moment
btw i lost
jk i won :D
great game, simple and fun.
would love to see more poses and special events maybe?
even more specific preferences for the coworkers that visit to give it a bit of strategy.
also obviously color, sounds and animations but i guess thats already being worked on if this is getting updated (i hope it is cuz i liked this)
