Interesting concept. I realised mid-way through playing that it's essentially the Sims with only UI. 

Developer

I agree with you that this game has a lot of similarities to the Sims. But where the Sims is more micromanagement game, this is more about general chooses in your life.

Cool Jam Game.  It made me wonder what I've been doing wrong all my life.  I'm not making it count very well. HA!

Really nice concept! Now i feel like I wasted my time, I didn't know that to become a president is a matter of good resource management!

This is a clever little idea! I think the pace could be picked up a bit, it's kind of like a clicker game that's designed to give you anxiety instead of positive reinforcement which is a cool use of really minimal mechanical storytelling. I like it :)

Developer

Thank you for playing my game, and I am happy you liked it. I agree that the pacing could need to pick up even more then it does now.

I think you made good use of the theme, one thing I would have liked is a downgrade button for the housing if it get´s to expensive, rather then going straight to beeing homeless :P

Developer

Thank you for playing my game. It was actually  my idea to have a downgrade button, but I ran out of time.

I played your game, It's very interesting and this game really fits the theme of the jam. It gave some meanings to me. I pressed button Play the game so much as I did adolescence.
