This is one of my favorites of ones I've tried so far. It looks and plays well with what mechanics you have implemented. Maybe instead only being able to use the bucket you could just use the sink directly?
I appreciate your comment and feedback.
Wouldn't be a problem to implement, I just have the feeling it could end up not mattering much with the current game balance . It could shift the strategy to first focus the wall in front of the sink and maybe something else, which is interesting, but would need some planning.
Nice concept. It's like power wash simulator, but darker.
Thanks for the comment. If you don't mind: what makes you feel like it's a bit dark?
I had some other day life game mechanics ideas to mix with that could reinforce a feeling of "sadness" depending on the angle you view them, which is sort of what I was going for, but I didn't have the time to think better and implement.
They are very similar conceptually, make dirty stuff clean. But where simulator has a cheery and cartoonish tone, there's something more human about mold. Mold, especially in an apartment, is something people really battle with and fear. There's a constant need to keep vigilant lest you be consumed by death and decay.
Thanks for the reply. I see it as a battle against the mold itself, against time and against the lack of disposition/energy. It's a quite frustrating aspect of (my) routine (and it also applies to other things) and also a bit comic.
Thanks again. Cheers.
