How does your game represent "Power"?
The game is about trying to take the longest power naps you can take in the office without getting caught. Long power naps reward you with lots of energy to spend on working your job and points to spend on power-ups in the form of gacha game pulls.

That was fantastic. I really liked the cutscene images and the "legally distinct" characters. Wasn't able to last too long but the gacha addiction eventually claims all.
The only thing I would've changed is the coworkers. I feel like they shouldn't just snap to look at you, it made losing life feel instant. A head turning animation or a small window of time where you could stop sleeping could've gone a long way.
Other than that this was a fun and humorous experience and that game over screen will stick with me for a while. Nice work.
Thanks for playing and thanks for the feedback!
Yeah that's a good point about the coworker mechanic. There are a lot of things I would add with more time and resources, and more fleshing out of that coworker mechanic is near the top of the ToDo list.
I would be sleeping on the job too, if my office played smooth tunes like that :D. Really fun game, at first I was like "I just try one gameplay-loop". But then I got addicted and had to getcha all the gachas. Excellent work!
Alas, the dangers of gachas! Pray you do not end up like Tony... xD
Thanks for playing and I am happy you enjoyed it! :)
okey that was more difficult than expected, but really enjoyed it over all. Had a colleague who’s workday was just like this
Such is life... 😔
Thanks for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
Insanely well done and fun game :) Definitely going to be my go to game for restful Tuesdays
Thanks for the kind words and thank you even more for playing! :)
In power napping, the game really makes you FEEL like you’re addicted to gacha games. After completing my daily 999 quota, I couldn’t help myself but rest a little while longer. I craved sleep. I had only pulled in a measly 275000 for the day, but my forehead was craving the cold hard surface of my desk. Suddenly I had three pairs of eyes looking down upon me. I was done for.
As I packed my belongings I had to ask myself: Was I doing this for her, or was I doing this for me?
That was deep...
The artwork of this game perfectly matches the theme. The introduction to Tony is fantastic, and so is the lose screen. Not going to lie, I got jump scared by some of the coworker reactions to your character sleeping. Well done!
Thanks for playing!! I am so happy you like the artwork :')
You know, I was wondering what a perfect game looks like. 10/10. Absolutely peak. My wife and I love it.
Haha, thanks for the kind words! I am happy you and your wife enjoyed it :)
Hey this is a really fun game, and boy how you incorporate the theme to the game is very clever hahaha. Cheers on your submission.
Thank you for the kind words! I am glad you enjoyed it :)
Also like crazy that we made the same game except you have northern lion so yours is better
Lol it was 3am and I couldn't think of what to draw for one of the coworkers so I just drew a bald guy and thought, "Hmmmm... Northernlion" and then colored it in after him xD
And you're right it's hecka crazy we ended up with such similar gameplay mechanics o_o
But idk, when I was playing your teams' Power Nap, I thought I saw Rodrick from Diary of a Wimpy Kid on the computer screen 🤷♂️your game is pretty good!
IS THAT NORTHERN LION
Clever gameplay loop.
Thought it wasn't as fun until I realized you could press more then one key at a time haha (previously I was just using the spacebar, got past quota 10)
A very fun, but difficult game.
I got up to the day with the 37 quota, and wasn't sure when I could upgrade my buffs.
The game seems to give you the same amount of time each day, which meant for me that completing each day seemed less possible each time.
One suggestion I have is to make it so that any leftover work you complete after you finish each quota, carries over to the next day.
The art is epic.
Overall, I enjoyed this game quite a bit! Hope to see a full release in the future.
Thanks for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it :')
You upgrade your buffs just by pulling on the gacha (each banner upgrades a specific buff, listed on the top left corner of the gacha screen) from the results screen, and you get currency for pulling on the gacha by sleeping past the energy cap. If I had more time, I would have improved the tutorial, among many other things ^-^"
Nonetheless, I'm really happy you liked the art!!
so much fun, great take on the theme
Thanks for playing! I'm glad you enjoyed it :)
super clever and really fun to play! Great function!
Thanks for playing and for the kind words! :)
