This is reminding me a lot about day-to-day life in New Zealand right now.
Really depressing game, but the art style is cute and message is powerful.
I used choices that played it safe (don't buy a snack), opportunistic (taking $10 from grandma), honest (telling friends i couldn't go) but also bought joy (being shouted food by friends) without spending money.
These are the choices I have to make every day here and it's hard out there.
