I love how the Janitor is grumbling under his voice whenever you do anything.

I was a little confused at first because he didn't seem to want to perform actions until I figured out where I needed to stand in relation to them.

I didn't realise how lucrative a business chopping down trees to save cats was, I will have to do this in real life!

Super cute stuff, love the little space suit, oh and the Harvest Moon style inventory system!

another great game :D excellent work! I lasted 9 years! I lived to a ripe old age and I did ok I guess ;) I liked the space bus. I wanted to save up for the train but I accidentally bought chicken when trying to pickup a tool :D

Very funny game. I liked the sound effects, and though the graphics were humorous.

It's fun but didnt like the graphics.

Haha, this is a funny one. I especially like the pixel art graphics and the janitor's grumbling sounds. :D

Sleeping takes a bit too long, and it would be nice if you could interrupt sleeping. (If you keep pressing the arrow keys while sleeping, you can actually sleepwalk, which is great, but I assume it's a bug.)

After a while the tiredness and hunger bars stopped going down, I don't know why. And then the game suddenly ended. Is it possible that the bars weren't updating?

Anyway, I enjoyed playing this game! Well done!

It was a little tricky getting the janitor to use things sometimes, but the idea is good and has amusing graphics.

Great sounds! I played most of my game while sleepwalking which was a bit weird...

really interesting.. and fun kind of :)
had troubles to trigger the job sometimes.. tricky collisions?

The game was pretty good, I liked the how the janitor grumbled when he was doing something! The collision detection wasn't the best though, sometimes it wouldn't work.

Really liked the idea of the game. Two small issues 1) when playing on widescreen laptop, don't see lower part of game window and cannot make it smaller 2) it is often difficult to predict, where exactly I should stand to interact with particular object.
