About the game
DUE TONIGHT is an incremental game about a rubber stamp, a desk and a building that never stops sending you paperwork. All of it has googly eyes. All of it is due tonight.
You start as the night-shift intern in the basement Mailroom. Memos, envelopes and sticky notes crawl across the desk. Slide the stamp over them and it comes down on its own. Every approved form pays a fee. The clock on the wall is your shift, and at midnight it's over.
Pay enough quotas and you get promoted. Every floor is a new desk, new paperwork, a new stamp and a new job title, all the way up to the Galactic Registry, where the paperwork is planets and the fees have a lot of zeros.
How a night goes
Clock in
Paperwork crawls in from the inbox. Hover the stamp over it and keep the streak going.
Pay the quota
Your supervisor wants a number by the deadline. Pay it and you keep the desk. Miss it and you're fired.
Spend it
A bigger pad, darker ink, faster hands, a longer shift, a better stamp. Adopt an office policy. Pick up the phone.
Double or nothing
After a good night, call heads or tails on a coin toss and double the take, or lose it.
Getting fired is part of the job. Every career leaves you References, and References buy enamel pins that stay with you for good. The next career starts faster.
The building
Seven floors, each with its own desk, paperwork, stamp and a Performance Review: a boss, like the Shredder or the Triplicate Titan, that walks across your desk and has to be stamped out before the clock runs down. From the third floor on you run a team of clerks who stamp alongside you.

At the very top of the building there is one last form. Somebody has to stamp it.
