Wow. I've never felt more physically and symbolically trapped in a year.

Although there's a solution above, I think the real answer is to wait a few months. :smile:

Neat entry!

lmao, once I got it, I laughed really hard. This one really got me.

Like the commenters above said, it was a really hilarious and timely take on the theme, good job, love it. Let's hope we all make it out of that loop.

I got spoiled by comments above before I truly tried :( There is no winning screen right?

Interesting concept. I uh solved the puzzle by changing my system clock? I was hoping for some more escalation after that.

Nice concept. Messed with my LDJAM login and I had to restart my browser, but it was worth it. Well done! :-)

Great concept, I loved how it tried to mess with my mind. I dont really know if this is a good game, but who cares? It was a fun little experience.

I once made a cheeky game where the only thing you can do is wait literally hundreds of days for a door to open in-game. My friends asked what was behind the door and I answered, "I don't know, it hasn't opened yet." I don't think they liked my game very much...

This is a similar concept. Nice to know there are other brilliant minds making masterpieces out there. :wink:
