@brenan hahah thank you man! it was an amazing experience, and got a lot of ideas to make it better :) that's an amazing game level you got there, i cannot believe you played my stuff xD thanks!
So strange but very captivating. The artwork is very good :)
@orsi thank you for playing my game :D
Very unique style, felt like I was in a fever dream. Ended up letting the dog starve to stop it's whining. 10/10 abuse simulator.
@incinious thank you for playing!
Love the creepy art style - wish I was better at this game so I could see if I can get the secret ending and wonder if it somehow ties / elaborates on the art style. Overall, a really great horroresque take on Papers, Please that I wish I had more time to master.
@injured the main feature is missing :( i did'nt have time to implement the stats of the day, which show you the overall progress. It will have more endings as soon as i can grab it again :D
Muy bueno che, me gustó, me mantuvo varios intentos de tratar de mantener vivo a todo el mundo. Me Gustó mucho el concepto y el arte! El humor está muy piola también. Solo le sumaría algún OST para acompañar un poco el mood.
Todavía no pude sacar el final secrto, pero ya saldrá!
Felicitaciones!
@leogroia gracias Leo! jajaj es para hardcore gamers por el momento.. hay que estar un rato ya voy a meter mas coasas pronto gracias por jugar!
Like the art style.The story is interesting too.But I'm really bad at it as I keep forgetting to feed the dog lol.
The art is gorgi! Love the whole feel- I don't know how to feed the dog- I could only get 1/3 and 2/3- I thought I was about to get there- and then Max died again. :( can't wait to see where you go with this. Thanks for the game!

It made me laugh a lot, good idea, execution and art. I would have made the stats numbers more visible, because it was a bit difficult to keep track of them. Very nice overall, thanks for the game :D
@pauarrhi thank you for your feedback, i'll try to fix it! i'm glad it made you laugh haha and thank you for playing!
@joemid this is so sad :'c can we get 3 likes?
thank you for your feedback and specially the screenshot xd, i'm very happy people found it fun. today i added 1 more ending and sounds at the begining and every ending, which was really lacking at first build i'll keep it updated on my itch.io!
@nightvision65 lol it's still unbalanced/lacking visual feedback of the current stats :c soon i'll fix that!
I really like the art style and how the game is designed for multiple playthroughs! I found it really challenging to keep everything in balance but it felt fair which kept it enjoyable! Now to try get the 'good ending'. Great job!!
@tom-stephenson thank you! more endings are comming up :D im glad you like it
I love the graphics! This art style is very sick! you're a badass. I will check out your page on linkedin.. If you ever need some OST, please contact me, i'd love to make soundtrack for games like yours. My name is Pedro Kozovits, DM wherever you find me hahaha
i'm not speaking lies here, this kind of graphics is what i imagine in my mind when i am making some of my music hahaha i also see the world like that my friend
@d1str4kt0r dude! that's awesome, i'll check out your profile, i'd love to work together!
Original art and mood ! I like the multiple endings :D
Como me ceba el mood y el estilo de arte!
Me reí mucho con el secret ending de los clicks,
Le compré una silla a bobby pero no le gustó ):

@crisfalcon quedó pasado de felicidad despues del ending de clicker y lo hiciste entrar en crisis :( gracias por jugar, me alegro mucho ! genial esa foto jajaj ni habia pensado que se podia hacer eso xD
@kayacarlton thank you for playing!
Very unique and really cool art. How to play was a little unclear at first but I like the narrative wrapping around the management game! Good Work :D
Cool and funny game, nice art (reminds me of troll face look and feel) Keep it up!!
Haha, what an unique game you've did there and it's so insane - I love it. first of all the art was splendid - it has this trashy but you can see the artist has a skill and a certain understanding of light vibe. good choice of colours - they looked really good together! and the weird drawing stlye is awesome, kind of like salad fingers or something ^^ on to the gameplay, that was cool! Sort of like 120 seconds, papers please or this war of mine, I like decision making games. I sadly wasn't able to figure out the 3rd ending, so if someone could provide a walkthrough for me that would be awesome ;) congrats in finishing this bad boy all by yourself!
@fakefrogsonly thank you for playing! tomorrow i will be posting an update with the new gameplay system! hope you find it more clear, i've tried to make it a little more easy to see progress and understanding when a day passes
@ancientfall thanks Alex! i will :D
@fatpenguin thank you for the kind words :) you made me smile haha the game will be a little more close to papers please as it will have different random events every day forcing the player to pay taxes once a week, rewards and cash/health penalizations for making it a little more complete The art is still so rough because i was getting out of time when i had to do the intro slides, i'll be fixing some drawings after i got a more presentable gameplay
thank you all for your comments and playing it!
@fatpenguin the 'greed ending' comes when you purchase all the furniture and spend a couple more bucks buying invisible shit xD i need to get the dialog system polished and it'll be more clear
thanks!
I liked the story and disturbing artstyle, and music. I agree with one of the comments, that was like a fever dream that has its place in a poor communist town. Like 1984 by Orwell or smth. Sad life story. At the end I actually didn't like this dog.
Bugs that I've noticed:
What the hell is going on, how to feed the dog? I'm clicking Feed but nothing happens (I bought the food for 50$).
Maybe the case is, first bag of food doesn't dissapear when it's empty?
Also, when I'm buying medicine when my child is looking like a skeleton, he dosn't go back to "before" version, but his health is 100%.
Clicking Esc crashes the game and you have to restart the tab. If you're using Application.Quit in WebGl version, this will happen.
Also, what does Pet button?
Once you get the rules, It's pretty easy to be able to play long. Unfortunately, I've seen only two endings :cry:
Great work!
@sandra-jasionowska If you’re using Application.Quit in WebGl version, this will happen. * i didn't know this! thank you, i'll fix it, it was a placeholder for the menu with a quit button i didn't implement and i didn't test it on web * The pet button does the same that clicking the dog; it increases happyness of all the entities (it has to do with secret endings and probably day stats in the future)
the other stuff is fixed and will be uploaded along with the "End day" mechanic! thank you for all your feedback, i apreciate it! thank you for playing, i'll share a next build, i hope you can replay it and find it better :D i'll test your game when i finish my work!
Pretty interesting! I like the weird/creepy style.
I was able to get 2/3 endings. I'm not sure if there's a "true ending" that has to do with going shopping a certain number of times?
Fun, strange entry!
Oh man, thats absolutely the most weird game that I played in this jam, but also one of the highest rate, well done!
@arden thanks for your feedback! there is an ending related to buying all the furniture for the house and a secret ending related to happyness level of the dog
@rafa-braga haha thank you :) it was meant to be weird, it could have been even weirder with more time xD
You should have released more games because this is great art work and playability. Focusing on story for first games is a good path but try things with more mechanics next time and try to release somethings even they won't be noticed by anybody, it is great to have a game stays in a store.
@despdair thank you for your comment, i will, i have some more projects lying around that i want to publish but they're lacking some stuff yet
i think i'll port this to mobile and move on to another thing after finishing some more details
thank you!
really like your art style an this color palette, the mood of the game is on point, the idea is simple but work perfectly, its a good entry, good job!
Nice game!!!! I like the art style a lot, i found the infinite food exploit but i had fun anyway!
Genial me agrado los gráficos y dificultad, buen trabajo.
Finally got the time to test your game. Great job! Loved the art style and simple gameplay and that you included story elements. Definately helps to get you in the right mood. Keep it on! Bobby should do more sports.
I like how you used the art style to give the game such a mood that fit the story. I'm realized that I'm not that good at keeping everybody happy :P I keep losing haha. Great work :)
I know i already left a comment but dude, YOU DA BOMB, this is my personal favorite, graphicwise. Seriously this is awesome, looks like it was made by Adult Swim
@d1str4kt0r <3 thank you
