Haven't read the comic this was based on before; it's an interesting one.  Let's see your spin on it.

The game is way too big to fit in my browser window, and it makes it difficult to play and I can't see half the screen.  Please scale it down.  I had to zoom out significantly in order to play the game properly.

"If Boredom Reaches 100; you know what happens."

No, I don't.  And there is no meter/counter that shows the boredom going up, so I have no idea exactly when it reaches 100; I just get a game over (so nothing really happens).

I shouldn't be able to jump in this game.  It only hinders my ability to interact with things using E.  Please disable the jump.

There are two things to do in this game: dream of books or read books.  Neither reduces the boredom meter for too long, and there's nothing else to do in this game.  It doesn't really approach the original comic's ideas, and playing this game is, well, boring.  If there was more things to do then it would be better, but as is I didn't have much fun with this.

Edit: While I was writing this, you updated the game to include a counter, so that's good.  I can still jump, though.

  Let's see your spin on it.

I don't know the in depth meaning of the comic beyond the context, so i am mostly doing a literally interpretation.

Yeah, i haven't learn how to scale the game proportion to user screen size.

"If Boredom Reaches 100; you know what happens."
No, I don't.  

In games you either win or lose, but meh i won't change how i word my instructions.

And there is no meter/counter that shows the boredom going up, so I have no idea exactly when it reaches 100; I just get a game over (so nothing really happens).

i notice the number for that font doesn't seem to work on other users. Not sure why.

I shouldn't be able to jump in this game.  It only hinders my ability to interact with things using E.  Please disable the jump.

I thought the game is already as boring as it is, so i just allow the player to do whatever.

But i remember watching a video about valve testing there Game Portal, that they added unnecessary cubes or objects, the player was trying to use all the objects to solve the puzzle.

I think this is exactly what is happening right now as well, that the moment they could jump, they are trying to jump on places like the book shelves to see if there is any hidden items or stuff. ( i will take this into account when i make puzzle games)

There are two things to do in this game: dream of books or read books.  Neither reduces the boredom meter for too long, 

I was trying to do a literally interpretation of the comic, sitting on the chair being bored and fantasize stuff. 

If the boredom meter rises to slowly, it will be to easy i presumed.

 and there's nothing else to do in this game.  It doesn't really approach the original comic's ideas, and playing this game is, well, boring.  If there was more things to do then it would be better, but as is I didn't have much fun with this.

After reading this, i had achieved exactly what i was looking for.

Nothing to do, and is boring. 

If it was fun, it wouldn't had been a literately representation of the comic.

While I was writing this, you updated the game to include a counter, so that's good.  I can still jump, though.

I updated the game before i read this.


THANKS FOR PLAYING!
