Every day would consist of time you spend at home and time you spend at your workplace. You can do different actions at both places. You get your salary at the beginning of each month, and then you can spend it for bills and repay some of the loan. Actions would cost time, and the time you&#8217;ve left for the actual day is affected by your <em>demotivation<\/em>, <em>depression<\/em> and <em>hunger<\/em> levels. If these levels are high, you&#8217;ll have less time, but if you manage to take them low, you win some additional time.<\/p>","time":"September 23rd, 2012 2:20 pm","title":"The end of the second day with an incomplete game"}
