Pretty fun game. Was nice to play the different minigames with the fishing, sleeping, etc. as well as using what I get to manage the sleep & food. The controls were a lot to throw at the player all at once with the different minigames + inputs. If you continue post jam something that could improve that is to move the tutorial to be shown right before the user doesnt the minigame or integrated it into the game while theyre playing so theyre gradually introduced to it and it sticks better. The art looked good and the addition for effects when youve almost lost was good

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! The training was conducted an hour before the birth, so it turned out like this :( I wanted to do interactive learning, but I wouldn't have had time.

Liked the concept with minigames, nice fishing haha !

I had an issue where I couldnt see the bottom of the game nor could I sleep tho :(

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! perhaps this is due to the button "TAB"/You can only sleep after 50%

Cool concept. Spent too much time fishing though lol

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I hope it was interesting to spend time :)

I'm impressed by what you were able to make in a week! My game ended up being so buggy!!!! (hehe) .I love that you were able to make the game this polished. The art and the music seem great.

Great job with the game! :)

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I did it in 5 days, another 2 days and I would have made more content, about 2 times :)

i fish

Developer

I hope the catch is good :)

Submitted(+1)

I like the fishing minigame and the idea to make a lot of games inside a game.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted(+1)

Your game has a really interesting concept! I was a little overwhelmed by the amount of instructions at the beginning, but I found it easy to navigate once I started playing around with it. Well done!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted(+1)

It was fine but also very confusing! Maybe try to make the tutotreal more easy to digest.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I agree with you, I need to facilitate the learning process :)

Submitted(+1)

The idea sounds nice, but there is much to do on the implementation part. It is kinda hard to understand how to gain money aside from "skeleton" minigame. I couldn't figure out how to sell fish from the "fishing" minigame. Also, background sprites look a bit blurry compared to player's sprite.

P.S I love skeleton minigame, it is exciting to play

Thanks for the feedback! Blur, in the launch room ?Fish sell for shop

Submitted(+1)

Yes! Player looks sharp and crispy as it should, while all the other stuff in the room is a bit blurry (maybe it is not blur, just low contrast compared to the player sprite, but it doesn't feel consistent)

Submitted(+1)

quite confusing but once you get a hang of it its a fun way to spend your time :0

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!I should have spent more time learning :)

Submitted(+1)

I'm confused on what to do. I wandered the room, checked my phone, checked the computer. It wasn't clear to me on what to press or do or what. Sorry :(

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! My bad,learning in the beginning was a mistake

Submitted(+1)

Don't feel bad. What I love about these is it gives you awesome feedback on what people understand and not. I don't know if you were trying to avoid words, but I had no idea what the phone was and how it was linked to the computer (if it was). I'm sure if there were some instructions, that I hopefully didn't miss, that would help even. I usually make time to read the page before playing the game just in case. Art looks awesome btw!

Submitted

 i love the visuals and sounds! wished for a bit more story this would have fit very well... i loveee the fishing part!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!You are right, there is not enough history :)

Submitted

The sound effects were awesome! The bubble popping was especially satisfying. I loved the ambience as well! I wasn't sure how to start, the scrolling tutorial is a little weird and slow, but once you are past it, you forget about it! I wasn't sure how to buy more food, but then that's probably because I didn't see the last part of the tutorial (I was still trying to figure out where the start button was.) 

Really fun over all and relaxing! Great job!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! The training was not submitted correctly at the beginning, my bad

Cool game and idea! 

I unfortunately had some problems playing on browser if you had an version for download would make my experience a little bit better.

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback! This problem is related to the button "TAB" ?

Submitted

Yes, I don't know exactly what was causing it, but tab was probably being used outside of the game somehow

Developer

the focus is not only on the game, but also on the browser. :(

Very ambitious project with the minigames and all. My favorite was the fighting skeletons thingy when you went to sleep. I feel like that could be the game on its own, maybe with a few difficulty tweaks. 

I like the loop of earning money to survive, buying  groceries, and going back to the grind. With some polish and UI adjustments this could be a very addicting game.

Some things were a bit confusing (UI and objectives mainly), but other than that, it was a fun game to play.

Good job!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

I like the game! Fishing is just satisfying. Try out my game, will ya?

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Okey :)

Submitted

You are welcome! Don't forget to rate my game!

Very nice 5 stars for everthing

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

Submitted

No problem bro!

Submitted(+1)

The tutorial was very ...innovative. The transitions alltogether were well made, the minigames themselves were a little more confusing. Took me a while to actually get to sleep.

Was fun!!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! :D Get a good night's sleep while playing:D
