Love the music and ambiance! Felt really chill and at peace while playing! Definitely keep at it!

I like the music! Wasn't quite sure what the goal was regarding the balance... Are you able to fail? I got a message saying everyone was happy and I just kind of moved the sliders all the way to the right. I like this 8bit aesthetic though, big fan of the retro style!

Thank you!  There is no fail state or win state at the moment, it's kind of self directed for whatever balance makes you happy, but we'll keep working on it to include some objectives.
