I wish the sound and UI were better but the idea behind this is really cool. Kudos!
At first I thought you were using actual speed recognition technology but then I tried the game and was surprized it wasn't the case, and I had fun anyways ! You've got some good base idea for something more elaborated man.
In my game I use the player's microphone as a weapon, I thought I wouldn't be the only one but maybe i'll be haha. If you want to take a look at it, it's there:

(it's not as elaborated as your game but pretty fun with a bit of imagination :D)
Cheers man
I think the audio could be improved, most of the game feels like being subjected to ear worm from all the WABOO WABBOOO that goes on whenever you speak.
Really Clear UI, I could pick up pretty quickly what I had to do and what everything meant.
Loved the sound!
A really awesome Idea, that was quick to pick up.
I AM THE KING OF VOICE! OHHHh-WHaaa!

I loved the gameplay mechanics, they were quite neat and easy to understand. However, I felt the game was quite short (understandable) and could be really improved in the graphics area. Great job!
Great idea, executed simply and well.
I guess it kind of works as life simulator.
