We're building a social video chat for workplaces. It's got games, music, and a playful UI.

The idea is to stand in for the breakroom and the happy hour.

Only works if your company somehow already had the culture of actually using the breakroom or happy hour. If you're at a workaholic workplace where everyone already ate at their desk, or left the building to avoid everyone, a product like this has a real uphill battle.

Maybe you can find a way to break into this kind of mindset / market. Kongregate had a lot of great content, this implies you have a good team. I really wish you luck, we need things like this.

Better than nothing I suppose but I'm afraid it's not even close to the real thing (for me)
I'm really excited to try this out. We try to have happy hours every few weeks but when there's 20 people in one meeting it's unwieldy.
