I love the concept of the game, but there were a few issues. The game does not load unless I press the skip intro button and when I restart the game, the angry father is still present on screen. The intro scene was really entertaining though.

I have played the webgl version, but the bugs somehow added to the bizarre experience this game was.

I don't know what to think of the game. But I had a nice laugh, so that's something.

Either way, nice voice acting.

I didn't really mind the small issues here and there. Everyone has them :P It was really fun and chaotic which promoted the feeling of fun and stressful gameplay!

I don't know if it's a bug or an intended game mechanic, but when my milk meter went all the way down, and health started draining, milk restoration stopped, even after I fixed all of the pipes and enabled the pumps. Thankfully that was not been a big problem and I managed to finish the game. Other than that, pretty solid and fun game!

I love your cover art- def reminiscent of Atari box art! I ran into a few bugs- at least perceived, but maybe I was missing with the button presses? Would love a different layout button layout to make play a little easier. Love the graphics in general and funny voice work! Thanks for the game!

I liked the original concept of keeping a baby fed. It took me a while to figure out how to work the items and keys but once I did it was frantic good fun. I'm not sure why but the milk meter went to zero even though all the milk was pumping and there was no leak. But yeah, nice job!

@reallyqbert and @annie-owl I must've missed that bug with the milk. Glad you all enjoyed the game!

Quite funny little entry. Voice acting was great! Took me a bit to understand what was going on but I got it in the end. I know that the milk spills slow you down but I found that jumping over them instead was faster than switching out for the mop and then switching back to the hammer. But I had a good time and had some laughs

I like the idea of having a big baby in the background of a game! It would be cool with some more obstacles, like having the baby throw toy blocks towards the player!

Funny game, but why can't I play with arrow keys? There also seems to be a bug where the milk doesn't fill anymore? Unless I'm missing something. At first I didn't notice the leaks in the pipes either, so I might be missing something else. Good job on completing a game!

Hm... LD page says this a web game but the linked page says there is no web version and there is only a windows version available... What about changing the LD page instead and replace "HTML5 (web)" with "Windows"? That would prevent some confusion and frustration.

This game is hilarious xD For acutal gameplay I was confused and it's quite a basic bar management, but the theme and voice acting makes it all worth it. Also the first game where I want to show others the losing screen xD

The intro and the voice over is really funny. I am not sure how I am suppose to give the baby the milk, I tried to repair the pumps, but it did not seemed to do anything.

I really enjoyed this one. Simple and funny. I noticed that when the milk meter ran out the baby kept losing health even after I fixed the pumps. I'm not sure if that was intended. Still fun, either way. I loved the creepy baby.

The voice over and both endings were pretty funny, of course I had to cheat to get the good ending (thanks for putting that in!) Well done, enjoyed!

It was challenging to manage this task! :baby: Great that you made intro and endings, fun idea and story here.

I'm not sure this is how baby sitting works.
I may be wrong though..

Good job on your entry! Haha I did like the voice acting, even if you opted out of the audio it's good for humor!

I wasn't to sure why the health bar started to go down though, I had to cheat to get the good ending.
