Exploring the word of this game was really fun. The minigame are a fun addition, tho the duck game was a bit to clunky for me. Depicting light and dark as mental state was an creative way to fit the jams theme. 

I like the concept of the game, but i feel like working is just not an option in your gameplay and you only get punished for it. I think you could have tried to balance earning money and watching mental health in a way where the player would need to do trade offs. Hopefully I didnt miss anything regarding that :D Because I didnt know if I saw all the content while playing. 

For me this is a cool entry especially for the first gamejam. Well done!

Get rich or die trading!

You're a successful daytrader with a job at wallstreet.

Your biggest goal in life has always been to get rich - and you've reached it.

Now that you've got your cybertruck and your promotion, what will you do with your life?

Will you trade your days for money, or will you explore what other joys life has to offer? 

This game was created as a submission for the KIT clementinenjam with the theme dark and light.

Theme - Dark and Light 

This game explores how the world can be viewed through different lenses. When you focus too much on tasks that dont bring you happiness, the world appears more grey.

If you focus on and appreciate the small things, the same day can appear more beautiful and bright.

 In our game, this is symbolified by a shader which modifies object saturation depending on your happiness level.

When you work too hard, the world literally turns more gray.

When you choose to interact with your environment in a way that brings you meaning, the world turns more light and colourful.
