Jamception by Crocanti de Pollo
Jamception is a game about making a jam game about making a jam game set entirely in one screen inside of a screen in the game of the game for a game jam.
Story: this game is about you! It's the last day of your favourite game jam and you haven't finished. What do you do? You code like a maniac that's what.
Instructions:
Bless that yummy coffee... You have to type, or click, fast. You can drink coffee to get a boost, but watch out for your motivation levels. Maybe your friends on the Internet can help with that :D
You can click on the coffee cup to refill it.
To check your messages click on the phone. You can drag or scroll up and down to see more.

Anyways, this was quite fun (and lifelike), nice work!
I didn't know I could scroll down to check more messages on the phone, some players might miss it, which could be fixed with a quick tip.
Simple and fun.
PS: GO SPANISH JAMMERS!

I'm better at actually making games than I'm at play making them, though.
The phone vibrated too much, I seemed to end up smashing the keys without order, the coffee mug was always empty and I didn't feel like I'd drunk it... yup, this is a pretty realistic game.
@Ludipe, thanks for the hint! I just edited the description to add a little more info on that.
@Rodaja, seems Ludipe was right and it was not clear enough in the instructions. You can click on the coffee and phone (and scroll & click in it) to get some boost. It was a bit of an oversight for my part not making that clear enough. Sorry :/
Eventually I had to settle on something simpler to be able to finish it.
I'm actually a little surprised with all the positive reception. It's nice to see you are having fun!
Thank you people!
I'm probably overthinking it. :P
Coffee will make you progress faster, but that implies bugs will appear quicker. Also, using coffee too quickly many times will generate tolerance to it reducing it's boost. (you can know if you are having too much coffee if the screen starts to tremble :P)
I had lots of fun with this, I wish it was so easy in reality ^-^
