Nice game!
The mix of story and mini games is a good idea, even if I guess doing this in a game jam makes it hard to nicely balance things out. I felt that movement and actions where a bit slow, and games could give more feedback.
I liked the art and the voices.
Thanks for the game 💕

Good work! Dialogs display and pauses was quite broken for me, some shown super fast, some forces me to wait a lot Overall speed seems a few slow Thanks for the game! Check mine, if you don`t mind
I like the simple style! The ending was almost sad if the end screen wasn't so blunt, not that that's a problem. Like the other comment said, the minigames could give more feedback, like a sound on success. The first minigame confused me since it kept giving me the same block and seemed like I wasn't actually doing anything. Overall, pretty cool game.

Nice game, maybe not very "loopy" ^^ I liked the way it was made, like other comments, lacks a bit of feedback, also rythm. Overall a nice entry ! :smile:

Hey, I played your game on stream! It was a ton of fun, here's the vod if you'd like to rewatch; https://www.twitch.tv/videos/780254814
Thanks for submitting your game!
Good work, however it would be better to have some borders preventing from getting outside of the house. Also it would probably be better if the screenshot was on this page instead of itch.io.
"He is dumb" - definitely not the nominees in the best parents category, especially after having it going going to the kindergarden by himself. That congratulation at the end, though :laughing:
I really liked the voxel-esque characters and that you eat pizza? all day. On my first day i crawled outside the door and tried to find something. anything. but the outside world is bleak. The minigames are all nice ideas, but there is unfortunately no feedback or animation. That was super strange when I was at work, where the animation plays while the color already changed or it didnt. Maybe you need some blinks to indicate pressing and changing the colors. With the toddler game aswell, it needs some in between feedback step to show what you are doing. Eg floating the block in place or some particles The hopping movement and character growth was super cute and good, aswell as the dialogues.
I enjoyed the voxel graphics and the sound for the dialogs made me chuckle. I do agree that some of the mini games need more feedback, maybe sounds or something from Unity's Particle System. I also thought the bouncing movement was pretty cute, although movement could be a bit faster in my opinion.
The "work" minigame would also be extremely difficult if not impossible for someone who is colorblind, as according to color-blindness.com, "More than 99% of all color blind people are suffering from a red-green color vision deficiency." Just something to keep in mind for the future to make your games more accessible to everyone!
Overall, great job though!
Nice game, definitely fits the theme well. The talking audio was good but felt a bit out of place as the rest of the game was silent. Definitely needed more feedback on the mini-games, especially the work one. The abrupt "Congratulations" at the end was pretty funny.

Broooooo you gotta try to get the 20 ratings!! I really hope this get's rated cause this is hilarious lmao.
The ending... I felt that.
The mini games are cool. I'm not a good cheater, I think the explanation for some of the mini games could be better, like cheating on the test and sorting the contracts.
The dialog is funny and entertaining, but it stays up for too long, I feel like the game should move a little faster.
Overall good job, congrats.

This was pretty funny actually and i genuinely enjoyed it. Unlucky you couldnt rate games for the past while though cause this deserves to be played. Well done
