BUT WHAT HAPPENED TO MR. BEANS?!

Phew, had a double-click focus issue there for a minute and nearly stopped playing. I'm glad I didn't! Very fun, beautiful and just great audio. The artwork must have taken quite awhile, especially for all the animated poses. Very simple controls and relaxing atmosphere. Well done!

The visual style and no-words approach to storytelling are both striking and effective; I particularly appreciate how the increasing disorder in the protagonist's world is represented not only through the visual representation of her material conditions but also through the "breaking" of the to-do list and selectable object mechanics. A smart, remarkable submission!
