Short description
Maximize profit. Minimize humanity. In Downsizing.exe, you are a cog in the dark corporate machine. Approve terminations, automate the grind, and slash costs. How much will you sacrifice for the firm?
About this game
You're not the villain. You're just doing your job. DOWNSIZING.EXE puts you in the chair of a corporate cost-cutter with one objective, save the company $300,000. Process employee reviews, approve terminations, and reinvest your savings into a growing suite of automation upgrades that keep the machine running with or without you. But the machine has teeth. Risk climbs with every decision you make. The board sends ultimatums with countdown timers and zero tolerance for failure. Employees fight back, filing appeals that force you to weigh cost against consequence. Whistleblowers emerge from the shadows. Legal cases pile up faster than you can settle them. Emergency board meetings demand snap decisions that ripple across your entire operation. The further you push, the more the system pushes back. Maximize the Workflow Start small, manually reviewing employees one by one. Reinvest your savings into upgrades that automate, accelerate and amplify your output. By the time you reach full automation, the company runs itself. The question is whether you can survive long enough to get there. Features: Corporate management with deep upgrade systems and full automation Employee appeals, board ultimatums and emergency board meetings Whistleblower investigations and escalating legal cases Built-in Snake and Minesweeper mini-games Authentic Win98 aesthetic with CRT filter 40+ challenges, 5 restructuring rounds and multiple game modes Auto-save every 15 seconds, your progress is never lost The Cost of Slacking When the pressure gets too heavy, the office has its distractions. Built-in Snake and Minesweeper are there for the slow hours, but every second away from the queue is a second the board notices. Distraction is a luxury you can barely afford. Can you reach the goal without breaking the machine?
