Love your game, I guess Groundhog day was an inspiration? :D

Really nice little game! I liked it because it almost felt like a digital escape room :D great work!!

Thank you for playing! That's the type of feeling I was looking for in this game, glad I was able to covey it :)

Really cool short game, I enjoyed the twist at the end too! Great work!

Very cool, love me an interactive narrative, and the environment staying the same is quite an attractive concept, though I feel the energy system more often than not impeded my desire to explore and made the game pretty repetitive. Overall, it felt worth getting through, and it'd be a really cool experience with some streamlining.

Thanks for playing! I thought of making the energy system so the player is forced to go to sleep and loop through the same day, helping the game stay within the theme. I plan on making the loops less tedious in the next update!
