Good game, I died of hunger and my cat ate my body
Good idea (I was thinking about something like this, so it MUS T be good idea :D), but whatever I've done, I wasn't able to finish... when sometimes bugs occur every two seconds and I just don't have anything else to remove them...
Fun game! :D Managed to win by cycling production -> eating -> sleeping and using the consumables only when necessary.
LOL, perfect! I was thinking just about this idea midway through my game. Glad to see that someone else thought and went through with it!
And it was a fun game too. I had to try 4 or 5 times, but I finally managed to finish my game (and with 30 hours to spare too!) I was a bit sad that you didn't put a win screen in :-)
Oh, you can go out, I'm not sure you intended that to happen. But nothing happens. And the music got annoying on my third way through the game.
You should definitely expand on this! More items/interactions. A motivation level separate from productivity. Maybe some choices like ambitious/simple game in the beginning affect the difficulty. And an ending! :-)
I finally figured it out and was able to make a game with 32 hours to spare. What a hoss. This is a neat idea, but the audio makes me want to split my body in half with a rusty shovel. No offense. I dig the hilarious ways to die and the overall concept. It was confusing, however, that just standing at the fridge is what refills your hunger bar. I thought I had to use the 'powerups' so I died of hunger 4 times before actually realizing what was happening.
hahaha!
OMG I so enjoyed this game! No winning screen? Cause the game just went back to main menu when I beat it.
Bugs killed me most of the time ^^
Thanks for the comments guys and I'm glad you enjoyed it even though I didn't quite finish and polish as I was hoping :)
It crashes for me directly after starting the game with the following error:

It's near-on impossible to determine what the problem is from that information alone unfortunately. It's possibly video card related; even though it's a simple 2D game, it's utilising XNA for all the hardware stuff and if you have a very old video card outside of XNA's supported profile it may well be the cause.
These are just guesses though as I never once encountered that exception during development :(
