Nice little life-sim. I liked how I only left my room for food and sunlight.

Nice little life-sim. I liked how I only left my room for food and sunlight.
Awesome feel!
Nice approach! I really like
haha this was pretty fun :D
I love how this looks, and the sim aspect approach of moving to the different rooms is very original, too!
What a nice little game! The concept is simple but the execution is great, music and graphics are very nice. It seems after going to the beach my interest is just fixed at 100 and I only need to eat and work. Quite scary if it is in real life :p. One thing though, since I kept on pressing the space key till the end, I accidentally skipped the ending multiple times so I didn't know if I won or lost, would be nice if it is a different key to skip the ending screen. Overall it is pretty fun, Nice work!
That was quite amusing. Loved your art, very charming. Sorry man, you made $-8701.44! That's some serious debt. Why did you get so wasted and complete three times the required work? Must have caused a catastrophic failure when it was implemented.
This turned out really cool. Especially the art.
508$
I got $998.40 on my third try. Nice graphics, the sound fit, and liked the lighting effect when walking on the tiles.
Interesting concept. Lots of done for 48h, good job.

Just like IRL. :(
Great entry.
I'm liking the art!
Great art, interesting idea and pretty fun! My best try was $721.44 :D
A neat little games. I especially like the graphics and how the "worlds" are connected. It could be harder though. Getting work to 100 was piece of cake
Fun entry. I liked how it was I bet there will be lots of people that identify with your sim. Good work.
cool game. liked the art and concept. plus i got to freeze to death, which was cool as well.
super game! awesome idea. :) got 60$ i think
I liked your game, the story behind it adds a lot to it. The visuals are great and you used the theme in an interesting way, very good job sir ! (just one thing though, I didn't understand the winning condition, I thought I would have to complete my work but I won just by making enough money)
:)
Very good game. Really liked the concept.I hope you a lot of 5 star rates! (I left you an answer on my games page.)
Made me laugh. Cool game.
really pleasant game! It was a good idea to "connect" different parts of somebody's life :)up for the graphics!
$501.60
I love everything about this game. Awesome use of theme, great graphics and interacting with the environment. Nice job.
Sorry for the lack of response. LD happened a week before I quit my job in the Ice Box (in real life) and have since moved into a teaching role :D
I'd like to thank everyone whose played and rated the game. It means a lot to me to see people enjoying something I built, especially something that's based on a mindset I was in for the last 8 months.
I didn't consider it, but its interesting to see how many other people relate to this type of scenario. We all live in our little worlds, one of them an Ice Box.
So what's the deal with the 100% work completed thing? Well its not stated anywhere, but basically as long as you don't freeze to death, you win. That's because you're still alive technically to work another day. The work completed is used to calculate how much you earned that day and comes from the notion of 'I plan to get X Y and Z done today', which doesn't always pan out. I didn't mean for it to be so easy to get ahead on your work, but it happens haha.
So winning is not freezing to death, with the money earned more or less to work out your score. I'd like to see a super low negative number come up soon haha (hint; much bourbon, much negligent work)
Very cool idea, The concept of the game is what makes it such a moving piece.
