About

You are stuck in the loop of life and clock is your navigation. But there's is something reassuring in the daily routine. It helps to keep you sane, you know?

📒 RULES

  • Draw two cards and choose which one to use (left mouse button) or to exchange (right mouse button).
  • Each card uses up energy and gains or subtracts other stats.
  • Make correct choices and keep the character safe and happy.
  • Stick to routine: go to work during day and sleep during night. Not sticking to the routine causes stress and nobody likes stress.

I don't know if it's the music or the ambience but this game was very relaxing lol. I thought the animations were funny.

Great game! I can definitely see some parallels to the real world (especially during this lockdown).

And I really like the aesthetic here, reminds me of an old school computer game!

Loving all the subtle polish in this game, the cards that shine at just the right angle, the really slight 3d tilt when you move your mouse, the speed-up of the loop... This game is simple but time was invested in the right places. Very satisfying to play!

I really liked this game. The graphics and humor are on point but I think the chance related mechanic limits the game, as you are punished with a lot of stress because a lot of turns went by with no "Go To Work" card. The fast forward button was a nice addition. Well done!

I like the art it is just simple, but yet makes the game unique and distinguishable. Animations are well done made. Good job on them! The gameplay is repetitive though , but you already know this. I liked that I managed to lose the game because I thought I can't. Overall, I can't say that the game feels like a video game it feels more like an interactive experience though it has some stats of the character to manage. Nice done!

This is very good! I love that every time you do an action the time goes faster, and you can hear the little squeaks, art is simple but great, gameplay is awesome and this is the game that made me feel the MOST stuck in a loop! Awesome work! :heart:

Very good entry, very good idea for the theme (I proposed routine to my team but they did not liked the idea, I'll link them your game :wink:). Graphics are good (except the personage who is... interesting but efficient). I like the gameplay but I think that dying of starvation just because I didn't make him eat for one day is unfair :stuck_out_tongue:

**Bug report:** One day, just after wake up animation the character was flip 90 degrees on Z-axis.

Hope you liked doing your game, I liked to play it.
