I'm happy you enjoyed it! Just so you know, the full game is a few years away <3
Earning money shouldn't be in the demo, it's only available in the paid Patreon version.
And yes, there is a deadline. But every episode is 1 week in the game, so you can replay a week over and over until you decide to move on to the next episode. Making money matters but I don't want people to grind.
