While the game itself was a bit hard for me (too lazy to take notes, but my memory isn't good enough to remember the baby info), I really liked the underlying message where it's like, yeah, that's the point. At first I was carefully reading the info about the baby and trying to store them in a way I'd remember, but as the time kept going on and the deliveries kept coming, eventually I just clicked through the message and stored the babies anywhere, and just gave whoever whatever baby looked kind close. Although like in a game my attention span is shorter than if I was actually in charge of human babies, I can see why this is called \"Burnout\" since the burn out happened very quickly for me in game.\n\nOther than the messaging, the graphics and design of the hospital are excellent! The music was a little annoying at first, but I didn't notice it after things started picking up haha. And even though I was too lazy to use it, the ability to take notes and see how others took notes was a really nice touch.

We mostly associate it with pressure, fatigue & stress. The game perfectly illustrates a few of these points as you work as an intern to receive the baby to later return it. There be unrealistic expectations by many. Often, a doctor knows who you are and your concerns before you met him or her. They are expected to remember an incredible amount of information or at least the most important parts. As you play the game you can be quickly overwhelmed by the amount of information given, having to learn what details to remember in the words (text) and how the parents look like. You are on many jobs expected to somehow to administration, and tools are offered that might help you- partly. Using them costs time which is not taken within expectations. Running around, you are also being tested on your mental defenses. Some of the information might make one question if it is right to give this child to the parents... Or give them to someone else who will raise them, perhaps love. The pressure of delivering the right child is inmense. Then there be the issue of having limited space in a hospital, you being forced to take steps you would not like and feeling bad on it even if it was not your call.\n\nAnd all this as a darn intern! Deep respect, jeez.\n\nOf course, we exaggerated it in the game. If you remain calm and keep focus, it should be doable within a few tries to get the good score by using the tool, book on the desk within the hallway, effectively and take a breather when the story opens as all timers freeze.\n\nDo be advised to use the sounds, and know the pager their buttons work but you need them seldom to recheck a message.\n\nAnynoodle, Mr Smith is calling now. Make sure you are well rested and seated before trying. Yet again, use the book- especially (tip) when only having to pick a child up. Just don't be too late... To either pick up or deliver.\n\n**Are you able to get a perfect 20 out of 20? Or are you morally\nchallenged\u2026 Maybe overworked? Enjoy! After delivering 20 baby's the game ends. There is a good and less good ending. Both are different. Curious if you see the connections in the\u00a0good\u00a0ending!**\n\n\n\n### Trivia:\n- When timer for baby collection runs out, the baby is stored automaticly.

We mostly associate it with pressure, fatigue & stress. The game perfectly illustrates a few of these points as you work as an intern to receive the baby to later return it. There be unrealistic expectations by many. Often, a doctor knows who you are and your concerns before you met him or her. They are expected to remember an incredible amount of information or at least the most important parts. As you play the game you can be quickly overwhelmed by the amount of information given, having to learn what details to remember in the words (text) and how the parents look like. You are on many jobs expected to somehow to administration, and tools are offered that might help you- partly. Using them costs time which is not taken within expectations. Running around, you are also being tested on your mental defenses. Some of the information might make one question if it is right to give this child to the parents... Or give them to someone else who will raise them, perhaps love. The pressure of delivering the right child is inmense. Then there be the issue of having limited space in a hospital, you being forced to take steps you would not like and feeling bad on it even if it was not your call.\n\nAnd all this as a darn intern! Deep respect, jeez.\n\nOf course, we exaggerated it in the game. If you remain calm and keep focus, it should be doable within a few tries to get the good score by using the tool, book on the desk within the hallway, effectively and take a breather when the story opens as all timers freeze.\n\nDo be advised to use the sounds, and know the pager their buttons work but you need them seldom to recheck a message.\n\nAnynoodle, Mr Smith is calling now. Make sure you are well rested and seated before trying. Yet again, use the book- especially (tip) when only having to pick a child up. Just don't be too late... To either pick up or deliver.\n\n**Are you able to get a perfect 20 out of 20? Or are you morally\nchallenged\u2026 Maybe overworked? Enjoy! After delivering 20 baby's the game ends. There is a good and less good ending. Both are different. Curious if you see the connections in the\u00a0good\u00a0ending!**\n\n\n\n### Trivia:\n- When timer for baby collection runs out, the baby is stored automaticly. You won't have their information though...\n- When there is no more unoccupied incubators left, you have to give the baby to one of the people in the waiting room to get your hands free.\n- When timer for baby delivery runs out, their parents will leave without the baby.\n- Pay attention to the information given when collecting the child. **All counters will be paused during the conversations, so take your time!** This information will be used later to reference which parents are waiting to receive their baby.\n- You do not get feedback in-game when a baby is mixed up. After delivering the 20th baby, the game will end and present your score. If you did a good job, you'll be in the papers!\n\n\n\n### Version control\n- 1.1: fixed small bug where player's name is randomly printed on the screen\n\n\n","title":"BURNOUT","wayback_recovered":true,"wayback_source":{"capture":{"original":"https:\/\/api-jam.ludumdare.com\/vx\/node2\/get\/363501+363502+363503+363504+363505+363506+363507+363508+363509+363510+363511+363512+363513+363514+363515+363516+363517+363518+363519+363520+363521+363522+363523+363524+363525+363526+363527+363528+363529+363530+363531+363532+363533+363534+363535+363536+363537+363538+363539+363540+363541+363542+363543+363544+363545+363546+363547+363548+363549+363550+363551+363552+363553+363554+363555+363556+363557+363558+363559+363560+363561+363562+363563+363564+363565+363566+363567+363568+363569+363570+363571+363572+363573+363574+363575+363576+363577+363578+363579+363580+363581+363582+363583+363584+363585+363586+363587+363588+363589+363590+363591+363592+363593+363594+363595+363596+363597+363598+363599+363600+363601+363602+363603+363604+363605+363606+363607+363608+363609+363610+363611+363612+363613+363614+363615+363616+363617+363618+363619+363620+363621+363622+363623+363624+363625+363626+363627+363628+363629+363630+363631+363632+363633+363634+363635+363636+363637+363638+363639+363640+363641+363642+363643+363644+363645+363646+363647+363648+363649+363650+363651+363652+363653+363654+363655+363656+363657+363658+363659+363660+363661+363662+363663+363664+363665+363666+363667+363668+363669+363670+363671+363672+363673+363674+363675+363676+363677+363678+363679+363680+363681+363682+363683+363684+363685+363686+363687+363688+363689+363690+363691+363692+363693+363694+363695+363696+363697+363698+363699+363700+363701+363702+363703+363704+363705+363706+363707+363708+363709+363710+363711+363712+363713+363714+363715+363716+363717+363718+363719+363720+363721+363722+363723+363724+363725+363726+363727+363728+363729+363730+363731+363732+363733+363734+363735+363736+363737+363738+363739+363740+363741+363742+363743+363744+363745+363746+363747+363748+363749+363750+363751+363752+363753+363754+363755+363756+363757+363758+363759+363760+363761+363762+363763+363764+363765+363766+363767+363768+363769+363770+363771+363772+363773+363774+363775+363776+363777+363778+363779+363780+363781+363782+363783+363784+363785+363786+363787+363788+363789+363790+363791+363792+363793+363794+363795+363796+363797+363798+363799+363800+363801+363802+363803+363804+363805+363806+363807+363808+363809+363810+363811+363812+363813+363814+363815+363816+363817+363818+363819+363820+363821+363822+363823+363824+363825+363826+363827+363828+363829+363830+363831+363832+363833+363834+363835+363836+363837+363838+363839+363840+363841+363842+363843+363844+363845+363846+363847+363848+363849+363850+363851+363852+363853+363854+363855+363856+363857+363858+363859+363860+363861+363862+363863+363864+363865+363866+363867+363868+363869+363870+363871+363872+363873+363874+363875+363876+363877+363878+363879+363880+363881+363882+363883+363884+363885+363886+363887+363888+363889+363890+363891+363892+363893+363894+363895+363896+363897+363898+363899+363900+363901+363902+363903+363904+363905+363906+363907+363908+363909+363910+363911+363912+363913+363914+363915+363916+363917+363918+363919+363920+363921+363922+363923+363924+363925+363926+363927+363928+363929+363930+363931+363932+363933+363934+363935+363936+363937+363938+363939+363940+363941+363942+363943+363944+363945+363946+363947+363948+363949+363950+363951+363952+363953+363954+363955+363956+363957+363958+363959+363960+363961+363962+363963+363964+363965+363966+363967+363968+363969+363970+363971+363972+363973+363974+363975+363976+363977+363978+363979+363980+363981+363982+363983+363984+363985+363986+363987+363988+363989+363990+363991+363992+363993+363994+363995+363996+363997+363998+363999+364000?authors&parents&superparent"},"object":"objects\/sha256\/18\/185e29c4987ce69c81144d6a102fe341cd49345e467894f47cb991b63bbd7a25","record":"shard-0\/json-live-urgent-v3\/records\/39aafe0303f3924803f2e4ca974afb9c0e27e8ca85507a06ac725f758168e535.json","sha256":"185e29c4987ce69c81144d6a102fe341cd49345e467894f47cb991b63bbd7a25","source":"https","stored_at":1784022481}}
