Hobolution by lonehangman
Basically a slimmed down version of my main game that I'm making. I must admit that this was rather rushed, since I have other commitments to attend to (study, work, etc).
Personally I don't like some aspects of it, but I won't talk about them in case I'll infect your mineset and have a different view on the game.
Anyway...controls: Arrow keys and the occasional Z button.
You can play this game on any platform that supports HTML5 which means you can play on your touch device (because I added touch screen support)
Ok since I was too tired to make a help page I'll make it here.
You are a homeless guy and you want to get back up to the top. You collect bottles and try to get a job and buy a house (to rent off).
Collect bottles and hand them in at the bottle shop (not hard to miss)
After you get past $500, you'll (mentally) evolve into a worker, where you can get the ability to work (you'll need a resume, so go to the library)
Past this point you evolve by gaining money from working (one of the black buildings will give you a job, just walk up to it).
Unfortunately I was unable to implement the leaderboard and save features, along with other stuff like the insides of buildings, different cloths, npc, other art stuff. :(
Hopefully my second LD will be better.

Gameplay feels kinda clunky and there doesn't seem to be many things to do.
However the art is really quite wonderful, keep it up with your main game.
