Creative concept, not that much enjoyable for me, also the dialogue are too big. However i did enjoy flying using the chair, maybe this could have been the key mechanic.

Haha this was both fun and funny, good job on making a whole 3D game in 2 days!

Original idea

it's pretty fun that you can fly grabbing the chair and spamming right click.
depsite the funny bugs, the game is great

It's amazing you made a whole 3D by yourself during the weekend. Good job there!

Developer

Thank you so much! Though I have to admit that I would have never gotten as far as I have without the help of all the talented people at PolyPizza.

Not sure if this was meant to represent a funny or a realistic (i.e. abusive) situation, but the parentification, the impossible demands and the harsh judgments certainly make it feel like the latter. Thought-provoking and a good portrayal of those home situations. Some bugs/issues make it a bit hard to play though; control of the broom was difficult as it kind of rotated constantly or lay flat on the floor (would seem better to lock the position once grabbed, with perhaps an animation rather than physics) and it wasn't visually clear what needed sweeping, but it didn't subtract from the overall experience I took from the game.

I love taking the chair and constantly sitting on it to fly

Fr tho, it has potential

Although the graphics and house are, well, a little bit too basic in my opinion, I think if there were clearer instructions (on how to do things) and more things to do (or maybe events that occurred that would slow you down (e.g. you need to answer a phone, etc.)), as well as make the player move a little faster, this could be a pretty good game, which you could easily add levels to

I feel bad leaving such a review after basically not playing it, but it was rendered impossible for me due to the bug with the mouse/looking around

Developer

I'm so sorry! Could you describe the bug? I just played it and it works as intended.

Submitted

I could only look around a little bit, because the mouse would leave the window
