Very cool concept haha. Fun to move around the person to the pillow. Maybe make a clear objective for this game would be great. I think this is a very neat idea

Happy birthday!
Really love this one! I followed it since I saw some posts during Compo and imidiately went to check it now. Was not disappointed :)
This game is hilarious, depicting how an exhausted person slowly walks his/her way to the door. The setting is a bit surreal - There are random pillows everywhere for no reason. and a person can move along the wall like a gecko (or even attach himself to a flying cabinet). But these just make the game more amusing. The mechanism reminds me of the parking part of a road test. When I had a hard time beating the game, I seemed to understand why it was so hard for me to get a driver license :)
The movement is just hilarious.
After that first impression I got the feeling it was a bit too easy. I definitely changed my mind at the 90° curve level. I appreciated the change of perspective in the flying cabinet level, it added some variation. Nice ending too.
This game is amazing, really interesting concept. Everything in this little game is brilliant. Humor, visuals, gameplay, audio, and feeling is just great. Nice work.
I love it. Even before trying out the game, just seeing the gifs I knew this was going to be fun and hilarious. Great job.
That was hilarious :laughing:
This game was very funny and I loved how the audio fit so well.
Pretty weird and funny, loved it, good job!
I enjoyed that. Great atmosphere!
It's amazing! Nice design, good sound effects. Enjoyed!
I laughed so much when I've played this game. Really like the idea, keep on it !
So simple, so beautiful. Nice one!
Ok, an instant favourite for that movement style alone, man that was hilarious. Very well done, especially as a Compo entry!
I loved it, hilarious! The whole game is genius. :D
This was weirdly addicting for me,loved the game and the theme,level desing was simple but in 2 days there isnt a lot you can do,great job.
Totally simulates my usual morning :). Absence of moving backwards adds lot of hardcore to this game.
Oh my god, this game is hilarious. Great job! =)
I love your character !
Wow, this is the real life of spiderman or something like that ?
Or maybe be tired give super powers ! :smile:
Ludum Dare participant simulator on the next day after submission closed :sleeping:
I might find myself playing this game again! It was hilarious!
Pretty interesting game! I would've loved to see the more interesting level mechanics such as moving closets and opening doorhandles a lot earlier in the levels. With a game speed like this definitely! What could possibly tie into it is that you're still dreaming and thus can do all kinds of fun things in the levels that would otherwise not make sense.
Good job overall though, nice take on the theme.
Olala it's awesome ! I relate to this a lot =.= zzz. It was super funny I got so much laughs for the firsts pillow jumps, and the animation and wall climbing, that was amazing. And there is serious level design and cinematographic good stuff involved. And the graphics are simple but so clean, this is a very good job, seriously I'm in love with this !! My favorite jam entry so far, it rocks !!!
nothing to say...I love this game!!
Great Game! pretty interesting design. Thank you!
Very funny! Nice fun game. I'm also like this in the mornin' :rofl:
Plagiarism this game was stolen from events from my actual life Very funny and a unique take on the theme of running out of power 10/10
Very cool idea! Well executed as well!
Wow! I love the design and theme, this was a really fun game!
So glad I saw your recent blog post, pulling me in to check this out.
Obviously very out of the box interruption of the theme, but most importantly the animations really struck a chord with my sense of humor. Great job on this one, really!
Fantastic work. Had me laughing hard. That one 90 degree turn was a b****. Congratulations on making a great game for the compo. Best of luck!
Awesome little game. The humor in the game is what earns my heart. I laughed so hard when the guy start crawling in the wall.
- The game is fun to play and ituitive. - The concept of the game is really nice. - It's really funny.
- The character glitch out sometimes. - It doesn't quite fit the theme of the jam.
Great Job!!!
Nice job, it's simple, but super well made, and hard, i love it xD
Funny game, I liked it!
i ran into a glitch so i couldnt continue, and i had no idea what i was doing or how i got restarted or was able to continue. i know pillows are bad but how was i staying alive? anyway, i liked it xD my review may sound bad but actually this game is too silly and awesome not to like
I'm glad someone finally made a game about my life. A nice controls-based puzzle game, funny concept. I found the game's constant unfocusing and then snapping back to focus distracting, though.
I want to tell you that this game is sh*t, but I love it. Best humor score on Ludum Dare forever. Suddenly, the Macbook cooler turned on like hell. Now that i finished the game he can sleep in peace.
I found the layout of the house to be oddly similar to mine.
having flashbacks..
This was great, such a hilarious take on the theme!
Great job on the animation as well, perfectly sells how much it sucks to get out of bed in the middle of the night!
Spider-Man~ Spider-Man~ Does whatever a spiZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Funny game, with a really interesting movement mechanic, I like it! It could have done with some more complex environments but given this is a comp I understand it might not have been possible. Good job!
Haha :D Great game! It's hilarious :D Every asset of the game fits just right :D
Good job! I was curious to see how this game would turn out since day 1 when I saw the gif of the main character. I really like it how original and simple yet working concept this is.
A bit disappointed by the ending really. It should have been something trivial or useless to make it all *worth while*!
I love bizarre ideas so great job!
Ahahah nice!
Buhahaha, I wasn't sure I can finish this but the curiosity fueled me to see who's knocking! Hilarious! I love your bizarre game :D
5/5 stars humor haha this is hilarious, so creative, a great approach to the theme "running out of power" .
Great work, I loved !
Fun little game, definitely a 5/5 in humor. The movement worked out well, although I wasn't really sure what caused the screen to go blurry and snap back? I assume it's just to add flavor but initially I thought I was causing it by doing something wrong.
although it was hilarious, I wasn't a huge fan of my legs also causing a sleep state, not a big deal though. The walla climbing was hilarious as well. Excellent work!
Very funny game! The humor and the graphics are amazing. Good job to the team
I have just one word for you: LOL :D
Oh my hat didn't expect it to be that fun! Well done!!!
A very funny game with a great immersive feel.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!
Please play, rate and comment our game aswell: https://ldjam.com/events/ludum-dare/39/disaster-on-nebula-one
Very funny idea for a game! Can definitely relate to your character's struggle. The blurring screen effect kind of confused me to begin with, until I realized it was the character falling asleep and getting snapped out of it when there was a knock on the door. Overall a lot of fun!
Happy birthday!
It was not a good idea to play this game early morning. Now, I need to go back to bed. I guess you'll get the top pirze for mood and maybe humour because it simply beats every other game in those categories.
Good: * I loved the opening scene where he just slams into the bed * The knocks that got progressively louder with each level * The mood was well set
To work on: * That 90 degree level was brutal. I couldn't get past it
Well done!
Very cleaver and fun idea that meets perfectly with the jam theme! Love the animations of the character and the possibility to climb over objects. Great work!
really funny idea and animations! Was this intentional: it periodically blurs and sounds like someone's knocking on the door? It would be cool to expand this to a larger game, include an alarm/late-to-work system. Would be cool to have sleepy music and growning/guy talking in his sleep.
The level design and gravity (or lack of) felt dream-like
Hilarious game! I guess there will be a sequel or a full version available in the future? :smile: I have seen this game in the early phase of the LD and since then i was so curious about your game. You did not let me down - great work. The "L"- level was very unforgiving, but i made it after a couple of tries :smile:
Haha was pretty funny, he moved to slow for me and the blur got annoying but was still kinda fun!
The end is brillant x). I love the idea of the game, I just found one level frustrating because it was really hard to know if we were exiting the exit from the wall, adding a shadow could have helped.
Great job!
This game is awesome! I liked that this game is challenging and addicting. I also thought the game was funny as the main character literally has to drag himself out of bed to go towards the door. Though the sound effects were great, this game lacked some soft background music that could have even added more flavor to the audio. In conclusion, this is a fun and funny game but it could have used some music.
Absolutely genius! This was so much fun to play. I saw it on a lets play on YouTube and had to play it right away hahaha. The only qualm I would have is that the timed camera blur is a bit off putting. I mean I get it, he's tired and his vision is blurred but at least have an option to turn it off. All the mechanics and everything else though 100% solid, kudos mate!
Great idea! I like how you manage to use the concept "Run out of power", fits great!
Lol this is great. Some of those levels are suuuuuuper tight to get through. Nice work!
This game was amazing! Easy 5/5 score on humour. Other than the 90 degree level which was a little too tough, I found the difficulty of the other levels to be just right. Good job!
This...was actually brilliant, lol. But I have to wonder, how does that guy usually open the front door (where the handle is higher than his standing height)...?
The knocking sound and small screen shake were actually perfect.
A very interesting idea. The movement is very well designed.
Just thought I would post a link here to a let's play video I did with Exhausted Day included! :D https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUQ2VgrmLuM&t=676s
@gao-ming You inspired me to revive my port to MacOS! So, see link of the port in description. Hope you will have fun :)

WOW! It made me sleepy. Nice job. That was fun.
Hehe, I want to sleep now.. Good job, that was fun!
Maybe the box collisions are a bit big on the feets, some passages are a bit too tricky.
Awesome COMPO entry. I love this game! It's a clever concept, really smartly put together, and fun to play. Great job with the graphics and sound too.
I am definitely not on board with the post-processing focus effect. It game a bit of a headache to be honest, but I applaud you for trying something new that fits with your game's overall aesthetic.
The best I've played from this jam. The idea, the implementation, the mood! Everything is just great in the funniest way :)) I guess I'll go take a nap... Zzzz
Amazing idea for a game! It's fun and challenging at the same time. Please make more levels! Great work!
Nice and original. That 90 degree turn defeated me. In fact, I took so long trying to beat that level that Mrs Columbo decided it would be a good idea to start playing Peppa Pig singing [I'm a Wiggly Worm](https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=5&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwiCyZz289TVAhUCOsAKHd1hBusQtwIIPTAE&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DhLaV6H0kwuk&usg=AFQjCNGG73Dt0hz698Je50E0rqg64t7GGg) to help me get into character.
Love the animation to the guy's body! Awesome concept. I like the slow-down and fuzz-out effect. However, it was frustrating when you'd get your feet caught up on a pillow and that would knock you out. Otherwise, great entry!
Great entry for running out of power! I liked it
Awesome rag doll game ! Very smart and funny exploitation of the theme ! The difficulty is very well balanced, yet quite hard to master near the end. Visuals are simple and good looking, this worm-like state moves are very expressive and fun :) I wish the die/retry could be accelerated a little bit when raging :D It took me a lot of tries to reach this door :D Cool and quiet sfx, the "huh..." voice made me mimic and laughing ... Extra great entry !
Really nice take on the theme!
Very nice game. It was very fun to play.
