Tips and Tricks for I Don't Do Overtime

The whole game is geometry with a punch card. Bullets shove, obstacles kill, and quitting time is the quest — eight tips, community guidance on official mechanics. (Rule: Steam store page)

1. Aim at Walls, Not People

Knockback is the weapon — the target is the obstacle behind the target. See our combat guide.

2. Herd Before You Slam

Non-lethal shoves still move people — chain small knockbacks toward the big hazard first. (rule official; herding community)

3. Save the Environment

A hazard used is a hazard gone — splatter the crowd on the wall you will need for the boss.

4. Fight in Hallways

Geometry is your teammate — corners do what bullets officially cannot.

5. Scan Rooms Like Sightlines

Furniture is ammunition; walk-ins should read the room before the first shot. (community)

6. Chase the Secrets

“Uncover corporate secrets” is official — the best jokes and lore are off the main path. (content official; habit community)

7. Respect the Org Chart

Coworkers herd, leaders resist, bosses are arenas — escalate your geometry with their titles. See enemies.

8. Eyes on the Bonus

The attendance bonus is the official quest item — every fight is a commute, not a war. (goal official; attitude community)
