Oh, boy, I really needed an existential crisis today. For anyone else playing, Audio is definitely a necessary part of the experience. Thoughts: gameplay is fairly easy to grasp, and seems to sync up with the audio fine most of the time. The simplicity and lack of challenge in the game actually served to help me focus more on the auditory narration. I *did* think the writing made me go, "who thinks like that? Using 'bored' in place of, 'unmotivated,' 'fatigued,' depressed?'" but I guess that means I'm not the one the message of the game is targeting. I do, however, strongly relate to the conundrum the monster is facing.

Other notes: I can't figure out a way to escape the Credits screen.

Thanks for the feedback @omiya-games! Whoops! I forgot to program an exit to the Credits screen!

Nice take on the theme! I wish I could shoot weird paper balls at my tedious tasks irl.
