The choice of graphics was absolutely correct, and while the music was strange, I still liked it. \n\n-Someone else mentioned that it would be a good idea to have an 'interact' button so you don't accidentally use something you didn't mean to.\n\n-Maybe make interactable objects glow when you're near them so you know what you're using (or able to use).\n\n-I never did figure out how to make the progress bar fill up. I kept using the computer and it kept giving me the dialogue about writing if-statements. It also mentioned 4 hours passing in that dialogue, but that didn't actually happen - not sure if it's meant to. I was assuming using the computer a lot would increase your progress, but that didn't happen for me.\n\n-I'm assuming that you go to sleep automatically when you don't have any coffee for a while? Maybe add a sleep meter or some other kind of feedback to let you know how long you have until you need to sleep.\n\nI think you nailed the humour of the game jam experience though.

Gameplay wise, I wasn't sure what I was supposed to be doing, but I got everything crossed off. But nothing seemed to fill up in the progress boxes, and the ending screen was \"What were you doing\".\n\nIf anyone needs a walkthrough or tips, this is what I did:\n\n1. Check Theme is straightfoward, just check the computer\n2. Eat anything that spawns on the bench, then fast forward the timer. You can use the gamepad for this, just walk back and forth over the controller, it jumps time forward by 1hr \n3. Just keep doing this and eventually you'll get Eat\\*9 and Play\\*5. While you're doing this, do not drink any coffee. You'll eventually Sleep\\*2 as well.\n4. I'm not sure about brainstorming, just check everything after you're done with everything else, including drinking the coffee. Note that there's an interactable next to the bed hidden behind the checklist. Then a sign appears behind the computer and you can start coding.\n\nAnyway, good job!

The text 'progress' was also over the game area and I wondered why you didn't have some type of contrasting border around your text so I could read it clearly. But that's okay, I see that you intended to have those UI elements outside of the playable area. So I won't take off points given its a jam.\n\nBesides those things, I managed to complete the checklist, but didn't know what to do afterwards. So I played games till I exhausted the timer. I didn't know I was supposed to program a game! lol. I would have included that in your checklist, instead of having to explain it in the game controls.\n\nThe music was nice, but didn't really fit the mood. And it continued to play during my game over screen, which leads me to believe that it was just tacked on.\n\nThat said, the game looks great, plays quite well. I didn't like that I couldn't walk between the game console and that table. But everything is executed well, and was an interesting take on the theme. +1 that you did it all solo.","likes":1,"format":"md"}],"format":"md","images":["ld39\/39458-e9708609b903bf3ec3a3315ed5a72925.png"],"links":[{"url":"https:\/\/thatguyty.itch.io\/coffee-is-power","text":"HTML5 (web)"},{"url":"https:\/\/thatguyty.itch.io\/coffee-is-power","text":"Windows"},{"url":"https:\/\/thatguyty.itch.io\/coffee-is-power","text":"macOS"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"47894","g_author":"1039369","g_event":"LD39","g_eventkey":"74","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"230708","g_title":"Coffee is Power","g_status":"USEAR3","g_place":"639","g_commentcount":"60","g_site2_node_id":"39458","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":{"n_key":"39458","n_urlkey":"230708","n_parent":"32802","n_path":"\/events\/ludum-dare\/39\/coffee-is-power","n_slug":"coffee-is-power","n_type":"item","n_subtype":"game","n_subsubtype":"jam","n_author":"39369","n_created":"1501269169","n_modified":"1502216319","n_version":"138590","n_status":"COMMIT"},"node":{"id":39458,"parent":32802,"superparent":9,"author":39369,"type":"item","subtype":"game","subsubtype":"jam","published":"2017-08-01T00:30:18Z","created":"2017-07-28T19:12:49Z","modified":"2017-08-08T18:18:39Z","version":138590,"slug":"coffee-is-power","name":"Coffee is Power","body":"![Screen Shot 2017-08-02 at 6.05.06 PM.png](\/\/\/raw\/9c9\/9\/z\/87aa.png)\n\nThis is my very first game jam, I would really appreciate any feedback that you have! \n\n**Objective**\n\n   - Balance your time during a game jam and make the best game you can! \n\n**Controls**\n\n   - Press Spacebar to bring up initial dialogue.
