About the Game

It’s your first day as the new intern at the Star Cut Magazine company and you notice very early that something is off: all the employees talk about hair, they have the same haircut, and no one is friendly to you. Moreover, they seem to have forgotten what innovation and originality are, together with the old spirit of the company. It’s time to step up and find out what the hair happened to the company…

Explore the story of the company

You need to understand what is going on in the office and most importantly understand why you were hired if everyone treats you badly. Get to know the company’s story by talking to your colleagues and by exploring an office filled with environmental storytelling elements, combs, brushes, scissors, and “fishy” stuff…

Bring back the originality

Your colleagues seem to have lost their sense of initiative. There’s no better way to solve the issue than by showing your willingness and think out of the hair - pardon - out of the box. Complete the tasks you are assigned by solving fetch quests and environmental puzzles.

Who we are

Corporate Cut is a small indie game made by 7 students coming together for the Game World Design course at ITU Copenhagen. We presented the game at TAGS, during the Copenhagen Gaming Week 2024, and won the award for “Best Student Game”. We also showcased the game at the Nordic Game Conference 2024 Malmö, Sweden. We are happy to share this little design experiment with you. If you wish to contact us directly, feel free to reach out via social media!

Thank you very much for playing!
