A downloadable game

A life simulation for the sim jam. The theme 'a matter of degree' fits because the job you can get is a matter of which degrees you have.

Right now the game is talking to people, earning degrees and building stats for no reason, since I haven't added the endings.

The final version will be out in four weeks starting after next week. So five weeks from now. In the meantime I'll be taking a break.

What I'll be adding:
Introduction, so you're not just thrown into the game.
Replace sketch sprites and add expressions.
Add endings.
Gift giving, because having everyone love you is needed for one of the endings. Right now the only way to gain affection is to talk to them once a day.
Consequences to having low stats, currently you can ignore your happiness as much as you want with nothing happening.

I'm heavily considering not adding dating. I wanted it because I had an idea for the dating system, but marriage wont be a thing in this game and if feels unnecessary when you can just give gifts with no limit.

Some of this stuff is drawn and written but I didn't have time to add it to the game, of course, you never have enough time in a game jam right? This alone wont take the entire month but I'll be working on another game along side it.


*I forgot to remove a temporary bg, I'm fixing it now.
