A downloadable game


HAPPINESS MANAGER™ is a construction and puzzle game inspired by the aesthetics of the 1960s-70s. As the newly hired Happiness Manager of the WorkBuddies company, you will be entrusted with pushing the limits of gravity in the office space, in order to increase their employees' well-being and of course their performances.

After all, gravity shouldn't be an obstacle to productivity!


To solve a puzzle, you need to assemble blocks to form a solid and stable structure under the employees!

- When you arrive in a level, the employees are already placed where they wish to work 

- Starting from the yellow blocks, use the left click to assemble blocks to create a solid-looking structure

- Press the spacebar to physicalize the structure!

Loved the game, had a blast solving the puzzles and enjoyed a lot all the little narration trick you used. 

The art direction is really well done too !

really fun take on the physics builder genre. Would have loved to be able to stay with the company longer, so I could bring maximum happiness and efficency to our employees, but i guess I was just dead weight in some eyes...
Who manages the happiness manager's happiness ? :-(

An amazing puzzle game, with a stunning artistic direction!! congrats (-:

Very fun puzzle game ! The dialogue and narration is fun and the art direction is very nice, the 60s aesthetic was really nailed here. The puzzles were fun and challenging if you tried to maximize your profit

I spent my afternoon solving all those puzzles (yeah maybe I suck a bit at this kind of game) and I really enjoyed it. It was quite funny to see the evolution of the mood through the levels, and each level appeared unique to me. Good managing of the difficulty progression !

The game is really fun and challenging, I had a good time solving the puzzles! The world surrounding them is so appealing, from the music to the characters' designs and personnalities. Everytime you go downstairs to another floor, you get some additional lore and dialogue from the Boss that keep you wanting more. Great game, congrats to the team!
