As a person who lived the classic chronic-undiagnosed-invisible illness life day-in, day-out for four years, this game felt so important to me - and SO realistic with the struggles, the uncertainty of energy levels from day to day, and the small things that just throw you off or upset you.
But you know what felt really good? I actually used all the life lessons & spoonie tactics learned from my IRL chronic illness, to ace this game! I guess I really learned how to take care of myself all those years and conserve that precious energy and wellness, just like the game teaches. :)
Ran into a bug on Windows - after talking to a coworker about her project the Work Break dialog area was just blank and I couldn't progress...but didn't find anything else.
Well done, this is a brilliant way of showing what it's like living with "spoon management"... (Also you reminded me to take my medication, so thank you!)
Not currently. The overall game concept had plans for various relationship options (including closer platonic, romantic, etc.) but it's out of the scope of this version.

Great game, guys.
Bravo. Thank y'all for your work spreading awareness. I feel a little more understanding after playing the vertical slice.

Is there romance?
