A Stable Job by UCSBDad
A life simulator. This is what life is like. You have a stable job. Bring home the bacon and brace yourself for another day. NOTE There is no WebGL version on Itch because I learned after exporting it that videos don't work with it. This is my first jam (and second game in Unity) so we'll chalk it up to a learning experience. Sorry everyone.

Harsh story, good work nevertheless!
The mood is really spooky, with the audio and the long eventless walk. Keep at it!
Also, I think the player is a bit too slow
Thinking there was more to it, maybe something I missed, I played again, lasting 6-7 days (I lost count, just like in real life). This was not fun, even while drunk. YOU NAILED IT.
Still, the audio was cool (But I guess you opted out of audio ratings?), and the character animation was cool. The "cutscene video" is morbid as hell, and really ups the "mood" factor.
I'm not quite clear on the character's "job", though. Pick up a package and take it home? Is he a drug dealer? Ironically, the game is every bit stable, but made me feel mentally UNstable as a result. Kudos.
but I think the proposition when you go home is quite brutal, hope it is not the real reflection of life :O
But anyway, thank you for your game :)
