I died of physical pain. I love it!

Really liked the excel idea :)

Really unique idea :) Good job!

fantastic game, hint: copy the stats provided in the screenshot if you want to survive a year. + works in excel on macOS

Gotta say, props on using Excel VBA to make a game! Brings me back memories of my old job, hahaha!

This gets points just for being a game on M I C R O S O F T E X C E L!!! I love it!

Original idea, but sadly it requires a $100 software to play. No thanks.

I can't unfortunately play it as I have no Excel, but I want to give you a million zillion points for making a game in Excel! :)

Great idea

I like the idea pretty much! Both using excel and the theme(life sim)

"To play this game you’ll need to download it, open it in Excel" 5/5 :D

Very innovative, I love the idea! I died of physical pain repeatedly changing values slightly until I finally just survived with a score of 2.51. One issue is that it is extremely finicky, changing one value by 0.5 adjusts the whole outcome by a considerable amount. Overall good idea.

Sadly doesn't work in LibreCalc (I'm trying to figure out the vb errors it's throwing - but my excel skills are low ;) )... Great idea though!

I like it! It's the best Excel game I saw (It is first one, but it's not important) Balance for me is one of most difficult challenges (programming is on the first place), So, I enjoyed. And I died of physical pain :)

Death caused by mental pain. Day 359. Its interesting approach, reminded mme of old text games.

Dude, you are getting maximum scores from me, hands down. This is just so genius, though I'll admit to being an excel geek to begin with. It's what games jams should be all about, unexpected, outside-the-box experiences that make you think and see the world in a new light.

I did manage to reach 365 days finally. Looks like I'm not spending nearly enough hours per day working out in real life!!

Did i just play a spreadsheet....10/10

Maybe this is the starting of a new genre...
