It felt a bit unrefined, but I can see where this was headed. Nice work.

Nice and short game. Also I'm surprised how well you managed to balance it in 72h. I found it very calm and relaxing. There is really nothing bad to say about this game. You set yourselves a goal and captured it perfectly.

Eating a pickle... funniest shit i have ever done!

Idea is nice. But preferred WASD-controls, because I'm righthanded.

Quite tricky to avoid wetting yourself! Funny game although I kept on accidentally missing the text because I would click too quickly on the wife, so they didn't feel like proper events. I enjoyed the weird look and you can see how it could be developed to become a full sims-inspired game with some more narrative. Cool stuff!

Interesting premise and as mentioned by @ion-programming, feels unrefined but I could see the intention. Good job overall :)

My love has been recovered :heart_eyes: I think I went a couple days without sleeping just talking with my wife for hours then running to eat and immediately go to the washroom and then eat again and shower and then more wife talking. Very frantic, but very good!

I thought it was especially clever how you used the background to communicate the game state.

I really really loved this, the fine balance between needs feels to close to what taking care of yourself in real life is like hahaha

Great direction for the theme, the art style was cohesive and interesting, and I loved the music choice! Great work all around.

"I can't be with a man that pees his pants." I laughed HARD at this hehehe Good job, guys, fun game! UI could be better, though

Great idea, fun implementation, loved the game over messages!

Found the controls a little difficult.

Cool little game. I peed my pants and died of starvation in my first two attempts, lol. keep it up

The gameplay is simple but works pretty well. It fits the theme right. I liked that there was a specific message for each game over, some of which were funny :) Maybe I would make the description of the action to be shown above the yellow circle, that way we don't have to glance at the bottom right corner to see what we the action is. Keep up the good work !
