What a creative idea! Never seen a game with such an interesting premise before.
My main criticism of the game is that it's fun to play until it really isn't. Got to year 12, and by then I was a bit bored with the core gameplay loop. Maybe you can add something to spice things up in the future?
The interface, while fully functional, looks a little bare. Though it was really nice to have a fast-forward button, wish more games would do that.
The main theme is nice, but it does get repetitive after a while.
Overall, a nice game! Good job.
