The game is simple, but I really liked the room and day elements, it turned out really cool.
This game is cool. I like the style and the burn out concept. Very creative. I also appreciate the controls allowing me to use multiple ways to move around. Well done.
neat little game. i like the added aspect of timing with the lightbulb, its a fun take on this type of game
I like the look of the game- the artstyle and player movement feel retro. I think the gameplay loop is fun, and I like the way lightbulbs give more points when they're collected when they're on. I think the game feels like it needs a clearer endgoal. Giving the player a set amount of points they need to earn every day or a total they need to reach before the end of a week or something would give a goal for the player to reach.
Interesting and relatable concept, I think adding the extra portion where you can move about your room helps turn a simple game into something more interesting. I also think the timing aspect of the ship game was a nice addition, rather than just rushing every bulb you see, it forces you to wait for it to light up, which can sometimes put you in a difficult situation, I like it. Would be nice to have some sort of rewards for doing well, even if it's something as simple as cosmetic additions to your room based on your best score.
This is an interesting game. I laughed at the logo at the beginning, but I didn't expect to have to dodge it later! Hah! This is a fun game. I liked it.
The game achieves its objective in making me burn out. And really has a good use of limitation.
Very simple but fun game. I felt I wasn't progressing at all, but I guess that's the point.
Thanks. You can try to score high. But yes, the meaning is in the same days. Every time you fail and continue the next day. This is a metaphor for the state of flow and the work of a freelance programmer, I seriously live like this.
Pretty simple, but the execution is very clean and the presentation looks great. Found it difficult to figure out how the game works but after walking about I figured it out. Might be worth making you sleep whenever you're in the bed, not just at the bottom of the sheet, similar with the chair as you have to be in a specific spot to have it work. Nice work!!
Thanks a lot. This is a small piece of the puzzle. I actually didn't have enough time to draw a nice clue. So, I'm a little worried that not all players have figured out the second part of the game (reading the description sucks).
Nice! I really like the lightning effect on the rocket
Interesting game about being a gamedev!
thats cool!
Very cool, simple game :) Why does the new day start at the window instead of in bed? It would make more sense to me if you went to sleep when you lost :)
Funny character :)
Thanks. Do you mean a counter? When you lost, you need to go bed for start a next day.
Catchy chiptune and great SFX!
The lighting effect off the window is a nice touch.
The gameplay is a bit simple but executed flawlessly.
Repetitive game, but i feel like that's what you were going for.
Nice game! The development sometimes is like that...
