Submitting this game to a dyslexic stream is evil - that said, you requested feedback on the concept and game play features!

I think The core idea fits, however I think a little more clarification on what the tasks will entail (especially when mistakes ADD stress) would be an immediate boon - However given you have effectively made 5 games in 1 jam makes fitting any level of polish really difficult! 

I think this nails the feeling of stress tho - especially given the misery and length of the sentences you are requested to type, combined with how little the minigames relax you and deminish over time, demanding you earn more money is really clever. Especially for me, who can't spell. you bastards ♥

Developer

thank you for your extensive feedback! I am wondering how you feel if I told you I am also both dyslexic and have ADD o/\o. Let me try your game as well right before the deathline

I hvaen't gotten this stressed playting a game since slender man, the peer pressure was driving me crazy, I understand the time limit we are fighting but it was so limiting thatI could barely explore the enviroment around to and strategize so most of the time I found myself typing and then going to bed and theyping in a loopp ... hmmm maybe that is the loop

any ways great submission man <3 

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! There is a satisfaction degrade build inside it, which means that furniture are less effective at reducing stress the more you use it in a short time. So for optimal stress release, you have to rotate the activities you do. So thank you for the valuable feedback on it and if I continue working on it, I will try to resolve it to not become too frustrating. Also thank you for the compliment!

Very interesting game, well made and good ideas.

Interesting narrative! Simple but addictive gameplay, I think I made it to day 13. Good job!

Wow! you did better then me! Too bad I was not able to implement the highscore system yet, because you will probably be on top. Thank you for playing.

Developer

Adding a whole extra layer to getting stressed. I admire you for trying still! Thank you.

Man I have never been so stressed for typing something on a computer. Very cool concept, I counted like 100 sheeps before I could buy something else as I am so bad at typing. Cool game!

Developer

thank you for pushing through then! I am considering a full release with a different type of minigame on the pc.

Great work!

Submitted

Really interesting concept.

The different colors for the typing minigame helped me understand if I was on the right track or not.

Good job!

Developer

thank you for checking out my game!

They took me bed away! A very nice idea and a truth not many of us realize in life : ) 

Developer

Thank you so much! Very happy to get the point across. Thank you for your time and feedback.

Submitted

Very good, very Orwellian! I like the idea a lot, I really enjoyed how the different interactions were different minigames like Warioware or Jackbox games. Very cool!

Developer

Thank you for the review! glad you noticed my inspiration from Warioware! I hope to polish the game soon with a highscore system and solve the bugs that where caused by last minute spaghetti coding stress.

Developer

oh! yes ofcourse! :')

10/10 capitalism horror. Some guy came into my house and stole my shower

Developer

Rated.

very polished. 

Stress in life just got more real. haha

Developer

thank you very much! Stress was on multiple fronts a very big part of this game. That extended deadline saved my butt!

Submitted

Gave some live feedback, but I love this conceptually, I think its an excellent execution of a topic that would otherwise be kinda hard to tackle in a playable way

Submitted

11/10. I wish I had a better set of hands for my keyboard. *I'm not an alien who will steal your stuff.*

It's a pretty good game. Let's review each other's work!
