About This Game

You wake up. You're in a bed.
It's your bed. That's good.
Next to you is another bed. It's really small.
The small bed is not your bed. It's a crib, and in it is your child.
That's right...

... You're a dad!

This is your child. It is your job to make sure it thrives, or at least make it through the day. You can go skating, imaginary monster hunting, or just sleep the day away in this text based adventure. I mean, the game reacts to your actions, so it really is possible. But should you?

(No, you shouldn't. Make good choices, okay?)

Navigate through all the endings!

Oh, and your family is coming for dinner. So not only do you have to be a dad - you also need to make food. You can make food. It's not that hard. Don't get lost in day dreams, going camping or starting a cat café. If your child starts reading philosophy, nip that in the bud before they get a PHD.

(Just be a responsible adult, please?)

Explore a really small world!

You can stay in your apartment. But if you need to make dinner, you might want to go to the store. In fact you should do that, buy groceries and make dinner. Don't get sidetracked. Everything is fine. I trust you.
