Hey folks! It’s the first Monday of the month and you know what that means! It’s mini game jam time! This week the theme for our theme is **corporations**! Wait, what? What kind _bzzt_ theme is that? Wait, _bzzzzzzzzzzt_ what’s _bzzzzzt_ happening? It _bzzzzzzzzzt_ like we’re getting some kind of incoming transmissi- ```auto MKCD INDUSTRIES EMPLOYEE ORIENTATION VIDEO FINAL DRAFT FADE IN: EXT. OFFICE BUILDING COURTYARD, DAY The camera centers on a beautiful flowing fountain. Various employees are walking around in the background carrying papers, having conversations, laughing. Two people in hazmat suits are giving each other high fives. Uplifting string music swells in the background. A large PIGEON in a hat and suit enters STAGE RIGHT. PIGEON Hello there! My name is Rick Kuh-null and I'm vice president of Teambuilding and Dream Ideation here at MKCD Industries. The PIGEON walks over and sits casually at the edge of the fountain. He looks directly at the camera. PIGEON If you're watching this video, that means you've been selected to become a part of the MKCD Industries team. We're happy to have you! The PIGEON raises his wing in greeting. PIGEON Now, before you get started, we want to make sure you understand our company culture and what it means to be a part of the MKCD family. The PIGEON stands up and beckons the camera to follow him. PIGEON Come with me, won't you? The music swells as the PIGEON walks off screen. The camera pans up towards the blue sky. As it does, we see the gigantic nuclear cooling towers that loom above the MKCD Industries headquarters. The MKCD Industries logo animates onto the screen. Music fades out. FADE OUT. FADE IN: EXT. A STATIC IMAGE OF A BEAUTIFUL SUNSET OVER A TROPICAL OCEAN Exciting music swells in the background. PIGEON (V.O.) Here at MKCD Industries, we have four main principles that guide our company culture. In fact, they're so important to us that they're in our company name! Let's take a look! An animated M pixellates onto the screen, followed by a K, C, and D arranged vertically. PIGEON (V.O.) The first letter, M, stands for "Make." We make things here at MKCD Industries. We make technology, we make products, and most of all we make dreams come true! The rest of the word "Make" animates onto the screen in a fun, playful font. PIGEON (V.O.) The second letter, K, stands for "Kinetic." The working world is fast-paced and ever-changing, and here at MKCD Industries, we embrace that. We are always moving forward and meeting challenges head-on. The rest of the word "Kinetic" animates onto the screen. It leans to the right with a dust cloud forming behind it, as if moving quickly. PIGEON (V.O.) The third letter, C, stands for "Cloning". We believe that cloning tech is the future. Imagine a world where you could be at two, three, or even four places all at once! The very concept of death will no longer hold any sway over us as eternal life is simply a cloning pod away! Here at MKCD Industries, we are working hard to make that vision a reality. The rest of the word "Cloning" animates onto the screen. The letters are playfully made up of various pieces of lab equipment, like wires, circuit boards, and vats of various chemicals. PIGEON (V.O.) The fourth and final letter, D, stands for "Dream". If you can dream it, we can make it! Here at MKCD Industries, we believe that the only limits to what we can achieve are the limits of our imagination. The rest of the word "Dream" animates onto the screen. The letters are made up of various clouds and stars. PIGEON (V.O.) These four principles form the foundation of our company and guide us in everything we do. We hope that you will embrace them as well and help us continue to make MKCD Industries a place where dreams come true! FADE OUT. FADE IN: INT. MKCD INDUSTRIES OFFICE, DAY Energetic music plays slowly fades in from the background. The camera slowly pans across a busy office. Employees are working at their desks, behind them we see a conference room where an animated meeting is taking place. A whiteboard is filled with a chart showing growth and success. We continue to pan across the office, passing by a window to a science lab covered in glass that is marked with radiation warning signs. Inside, we see occasional flashes of light and sparks as scientists work on various experiments. The camera continues until it settles on the PIGEON who is standing in front of a large window overlooking the city in his office. The PIGEON turns to face the camera. PIGEON Here at MKCD Industries, we aren't just a company, we're a family. A knock is heard at the door to the office. The camera pans over to an opening door where a CORGI in a suit and hat is leaning into the room. He shoots a casual finger gun at the pigeon. CORGI Hey Rick, we're still on for squash tomorrow, right? The PIGEON laughs. PIGEON You bet! But don't think you're going to beat me this time. I've been practicing my backhand! The CORGI joins the laugh and closes the door. He calls out after the pigeon. CORGI We'll see about that! The PIGEON turns back to the camera. PIGEON We only choose the best and brightest to join our team, if you're here, it's because we expect great things from you. I can't wait to see what you can accomplish! In the corner of the screen outside the PIGEON's office, we see a bright red warning light begin to flash and a klaxon blares to life. The windows shake violently as a dull pink gas begins to fill the hallway. PIGEON Remember, you can't spell magic without MKCD! Welcome aboard! The PIGEON waves at the camera and fades away as if by magic. The camera tracks forward through the outside window towards the city skyline. Once again we pan upwards towards a blue cloudless sky. The MKCD Industries logo animates onto the screen. Music swells. FADE OUT. ``` ## Rules 1. Games should be built in MakeCode Arcade 2.

I am quite sad about the lack of jerboa in this jam, but the theme is quite interesting. I really do love the sketchy experimental corporation vibes. ---
