Ochakumi
Description
Play as Ooe Rumiko, bored and hungry secretary, in this arcade-style game from Japan. Ooe must navigate through eight different office levels, propelling herself in her rolling office chair, and we all now how much fun rolling about in those chairs is!
First you will have to find a bit of Ice Cream or Cake in the area. And well the perfect thing to wash down such a rich snack is a little tea. You will have to get to the tea ingredients after which the tea itself will appear in the office. Once you down the tea the level is over. However your co-workers and bosses want to see you being productive (What Rubbish!) If they run into you Ooe will lose one of three lives.
Seeing as you are in your chair pushing the up arrow key will cause you to move in which ever way your back is facing via the pushing actions of your legs. When facing a wall you may press the space bar to quickly launch yourself backward, if you hit anyone they will be momentarily stunned.

*Rolls backwards in chair* Whee!
The Good
Well the concept of this game strikes home... Rolling about on a office chair while work should be getting done. Ochakumi takes time wasting chair rolling to a new level of action and suspense. The feel is light, the characters entertaining, the goal whimsical.
The Bad
Well I know I said I liked the music above but well... Hearing that one track over and, over @_@
Apart from that all I can say is that the controls can be tricky at first. It's also not always easy to tell if your against a wall and you can use your space bar boost.
The Bottom Line
A fun little game with almost no need for strategy. It can be downloaded for free from its website, which is in the links for this game.
