Kongregate & FoxNext Games Launch ‘Office Space: Idle Profits’ Mobile Game
April 19 2017 - 2:08PM
FoxNext Games and Kongregate, a leading publisher of mobile, PC,
and web games, today launched Office Space: Idle
Profits for free on iOS & Android devices to save you from
suffering through another “case of the Mondays.” Ultrabit, a
Kongregate subsidiary known for their work on the hit mobile
titles Pocket Politics and Raid Brigade, developed
the idle mobile game based on the cult film.
Based on Mike Judge’s cult classic about office culture and
“sticking it to the man,” Office Space: Idle Profits takes players
back to the era of Y2K, cubicles, and TPS reports. It combines the
popular characters from the film including Michael Bolton,
Lumbergh, and of course Milton and his red swingline stapler with a
traditional idle, or clicker, game.
Players will start the game as a lowly Initech corporate drone
that's about to be replaced by a recent college graduate. They’ll
team up with fellow disgruntled workers Peter, Samir, & Michael
Bolton to install a virus on Initech’s mainframe that siphons
undetectable pennies from each department. As players make money
they will unlock new departments within Initech and classic
characters from the cult film.
“Everyone, at least once, has felt underappreciated at their
job,” said Cooper Bachman, General Manager at Ultrabit. “When we
started working on Office Space, everyone on the development team
knew we were onto something special. Even 18 years later, the
film’s themes are still relatable to all ages. And when we paired
the film’s story and hilarious cast of characters with idle
mechanics, it fit incredibly well.”
Get ready to “Jump to Conclusions” today in Office Space: Idle
Profits on iPhone, iPad, & Android. You can get the latest news
about the game on the official Twitter and Facebook accounts.
