The PC simulation looks fun and derpy. All of those popups really made me fell like I lost control over it. Had some fun playing through it :)

Your cat is cute btw :)

I loved the flavor of the popups in this! The OS recreation was really cute too.

Here's my two cents: If you wanted to iterate on this game, maybe you could add different types of pop-ups that require different types of interactions to close?
For example, different "x" placements, moving ads, captchas, or a window that requires that you slide a bar to close out. In other words, you make all the pop-ups into tiny minigames, which would shift the game into more of a WarioWare-type minigame barrage. I think that might be a cool take on that genre!

That's a really fair point and I definitely think I would have moved onto doing something like that if I had the time! Thank you~

That's a really charming game. Gameplay is simple, but it got out of control pretty quickly :D

Nice Intro, fun concept. It works well. Very difficult.

If you get a chance you should try our little train game.
