Oh, that’s what that chime is around 45 minutes! Good idea including a little break reminder.
Regarding the battery, I did not see drain yesterday, so I think it was just me not paying attention. You can disregard. 

My friend and I were just talking about a productivity app where you keep an animal alive by finishing tasks. The rabbit burrow is a lower stakes version of that, which is honestly probably a healthier approach 😆

I’ll be using it today while I work. Looking forward to trying it out!

UPDATE after a day of use - I love this! Very easy to use and the timer is legible. Also, it's nice to see a timer counting up as opposed to my pomodoro timers always counting down.

Some initial thoughts:

• Down the road, would it be possible to do custom activities?  
• When the timer isn't running and the playdate is sleeping, I think it's still running as my battery had dropped quite a bit from when I turned it off to when I turned it on a few hours later. Again, this is when I had no timers running.
• I don't see money earned on the report screen. Will you be showing this on the burrow screen when that gets developed?
• Timer appears to automatically stop and go back to the task selection screen after a certain length of time. Not sure exactly how long. It will go past 60 minutes is all I know.

New game plus?!? YESSSSSS! Can't get enough!

The only bug I had was the first time I went back to the spaceship/RV, I saved and then couldn't leave the spaceship. I had to close and re-open from the save. I have not been able to recreate it, though. Other than that, I noticed a lot more slowdown and stuttering the longer I was in the game.

---UPDATE---

After reading your devlog, I may have had the crank out. Just noticed the staircase disappears when the crank is out. Nice touch!

I love the demo so far! I've been holding my breath for a turn-based RPG on Playdate. And it being a light-hearted game about cooking with Earthbound vibes is all the better!

I did find some bugs and have some comments. What's a good way to get them to you? Just post em here?

Clever puzzles and fun writing! 

Wow this game is addictive! Reached 436 on hard mode. If only I could focus this hard on my work. 

No less comfortable than how I hold it the other way. And there’s enough of a border that nothing gets covered by my thumb. I will admit, though, I’m 6’ tall so people with smaller hand may have a different experience. After playing for 2 days, this game would feel way too cramped on the screen in normal orientation. 

Once I found a comfortable hand position, it played great! Pressing the B button with my d-pad thumb is what really makes it work.

That was fun! I’m Looking forward to watching the story progress!

Easily worth the $10! I’m engaged in the characters and the flower business aspect is enjoyable. It’s just positive and chill, exactly what I want when I pull out the playdate for a quick 5 minute break. 

I'm so looking forward to this one!
