Cute and simple game! Love it!
I did not think I'd enjoy a game about work/plant balance at all, but this game low-key bops. I like the music choice and absolutely adore the in-game music playing keyboard.
I loved the idea and it's very relatable! For some reason it wasn't accepting an apostrophe as input?
Typing seems to be broken on non-US key layouts.
The game is really cool, a bit stress during work part, relaxing in singing one. Well done !
very cute!! love the graphics and sound design
"Please CC Raymond"
Woah I gotta take a break
Lovely game!! There's so much to like about it, but my favorite thing is probably the dynamic music. I really enjoyed how it changes based on what you're doing, nice touch! I wish the anxiety meter would pause during the transition animations, but then again anxiety doesn't stop for anything :laughing: Overall excellent!
Didnt work in chrome, but in firefox played well. Lovable graphics, only problem is that my keyboard "?" simbol didnt appear in the game, so everytime i encountered a "?" i lost.
Very polished for a jam game, the graphics are good, and the concept is fun, I normally don't enjoy games like these, but I enjoyed this one.
So weird but cool or perhaps its just me xD I think I found a bug or "problem"
I was writing the emails and one of them had a question mark at the end which I didn't seem to be able to apply (possibly because of my keyboard layout? idk)
This got me stuck
This was fun! If you type too fast, some of your inputs get dropped.
I loved how I could play some simple piano songs while singing hahhaha. It's a really nice game, I liked it
everytime that appears a ' was an instant loss, but i find this game very original and cute :3
Big animal crossing vibes, in the best way possible! Very charming and polished. Good job!
Really fun. I had a little bit of lag so it was really hard to type. The bunny is super cute.
@mattkuroshi @ayced @silverice @wittycognomen @equivocator We pushed a fix so that everyone can play the game! It's 100% less questionmarks and apostrophes! Obviously can't have an unintentional game-breaking bug like that laying around!! Sorry about that.
Super cute!
Nice game, love the visual!!
The piano was the icing on the cake!
I felt really bad for the bunny whenever they had to work! Good job overall! <3
love me a good typing test! artstyle is ouii nice
Everything about this game is great, it looks nice, sounds nice and plays nice. The emails were funny too, I really loved it ! I also counldn't get past emails with "-" in them
Ohhh this was so pretty and nice idea of writing and singing! I loved to sing! Yeees! :rabbit2:
I love the artwork and the concept is great, but I feel it's a bit too difficult for how it feels otherwise (or I'm just a really bad at typing). Amazing work nonetheless!
@arzi Trying to balance the game was definitely more guessing than science for me. As a stop gap, we included a difficulty slider in the options menu, though nothing really mentions that it exists (I added it with about 30 minutes until the deadline haha).
@fishmasterino Glad you enjoyed, but sorry to hear people are still having issues with getting certain keys registered. I was more than a little naive for trying to parse typing out of keypresses instead of reading an actual text input, but you live and you learn. Hopefully I'll be able to get a quick fix out sometime soon.
Super cute game, very well made with great graphics and fun gameplay!
haha oh boy that whole scrum things gave me PTSD.. I'm not at work anymore, man! :P jk. cool and funny game, the graphics were beautiful and i have the utmost respect for anybody who does rigging for a gamejam ^^ congrats on finsihing your game :)
really fun game! awesome art, congratulations!
lol that animation when you click on the computer to work. liked that i got to play my own tunes when singing to the plants.
Tried it, loved it. It looks so nice and polished for a Jam game ! Everything fits perfectly. I just couldn't get my anxiety down, as I didn't understand how to properly sing it seems ? Amazing job !
Incredibly adorable game! Really novel use of a typing game mechanic. The general theme of the game feels very relatable right now! Overall, a really fun and polished entry :)
I like the mood and the cute aesthetics. got bored half way through but I finished all the planets. wasn't hard.
I like typing so I liked that part. but the balancing act got boring fast.
all in all it was a nice experience. my baby daughter loved watching me playin' :tongue:
Great graphics! The gameplay wasn't very immersive, but I guess that's how work is
As a sidenote, the notes on the piano are in incorrect positions (the group of two black keys is above CDE, not ABC)
@motley We initially had it on the C-scale, so we made the art for that. But then our audio guy made the music in A, so we switched around the letters but didn't bother updating the black keys (oversight!).
@trmrddr Oh, I see
Fun game! I realized that the more e-mails you had the highest the anxiety went, and the more plants you owned, the more it helps lower it.

My favourite aspect was probably the option to sing different notes. Not limiting the player was more fun, by having us choose what notes to sing~
Thanks for submitting your game for me to play on my livestream!
