Really cool game! Loved the super chaotic ending paired with super chill music

This game is really well done. The first two days being calm and teaching you how to take care of the house only for the third day to be chaos was really fun. The dialogue was well written and it was fun interacting with different things in the house. Great job!

This is insanely well polished for a game jam game! The writing is fantastic and all the visuals and music fit together very well. Very well designed gameplay loop and tutorial.

This was very well done, I liked that the first two days were a sort of tutorial for the last day when things get real intense (and that you had an option to just retry day 3 at the end). The dialogue for the various things around the house and the phone calls was a great touch as well. Would be nice to see a bit more variety in the activities, but I like the ones you added. Good job!

Thanks! My original idea was to have a different little Dave the Diver style timing/movement mini game for each task, but I didn't have time to do that justice.

Makes sense, I had a similar problem with my jam entry where I had a minigame concept but not enough time to add the variation to the minigames and the number of minigames I wanted

Very cute and cozy experience, until for the chaotic day 3 ahah

The interactions are entertaining too! Great job, I had a lot of fun!

Thanks! I was a bit worried about going from such a relaxed pace for most of the game to the rush at the end, but I think it's in line with the theme.

Great and cute little game I enjoyed it, well done! I liked how the first two days prepare the player for the real challenge of the third day, that is a good design choice.  The dialogue is funny too.
