We really liked the concept, and enjoyed having the ImGui dev settings too! Nice

Kind of reminds me of the mechanic in Stardew Valley where you have to get back before bed time or lose some resources. Although here it's the fail state. It's certainly a jumping off point for a wider resource gathering game, would probably need the resource collection to feed back into the availability and the player's ability to gather more as they level up - along with a goal to drive the plans you mentioned regarding upgrading your home.

I picked stuff up for several days.

I'm taking a nap now.

This was fun! It would have been interesting if there was a mechanic that required a minimum amount of resources each day. But it was a fulfilling game nonetheless

For some reason, this reminds me of one of the first “game” i wrote in C++, at least the one i remember as the first. It was just about collection wheat and planting it again, also with a similar art-style.
