The most "sacrificial" part of my game is the amount of sleep sacrificed lmao.

Fun concept and good jokes ( I thought the same thing about the stinger haha). Was a little slow though, it didnt get to a point where I couldnt keep up

** most “sacrificial” part of my game is the amount of sleep sacrifice <--- cute! haha
I really adore the art style you chose, and the idea/story for the game is fun and endearing! If you could find and download some different fonts, it might help the aesthetic even more!

Very cute and fun game! :) Love the little jokes.

Really entretaining game, even though is a very simple concept :) i don't see how this relates to the sacrifice theme lol but overall is pretty great i wish characters would've moved a bit faster

This is legit funny :D but it starts off a bit too slow... there's no challenge at all in the beginning

Linux version worked good, thanks for providing one :)
While the game worked good, I can't really say I enjoyed it.
I played for 5 minutes, reaching an income of $30 or something, and from what I can tell there's no end game or any challenge really, but maybe I am missing something vital? :P
Anyway, graphics were cute and pleasant to look at and the game played good.

@memoryleek Thanks for playing, there isn't really any end goal. I was pretty busy on LD weekend so I didn't get much time to work on it, so that's pretty much it.

The amount of dialogue and unique lines and clients is pretty impressive! I played it for awhile just to see how much there is but the simple gameplay isn't enough. It's a shame you weren't able to link the game to the theme, but still for what it is, it's pretty good.

Fun art and fun writing! But why does the bee not have wings?

Lovely game you've got here ;)
I like the art style, and the amount of content in the dialogues, they seem to never end!
