You're a dad

You're a dad!

You have a 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.

Play the demo!

• A lovely story based on the maker's experience of becoming a dad
  
• A non-linear narrative. You go where you like
  
• Different options based on what you've done in the past
  
• A repeating day where you can collect 15+ endings
  
• Short playthroughs of roughly 3-20 minutes per ending
  
• Buy food, make food
  
• Unravel the family dynamic
  
• Everything is fine, nothing is wrong, there's certainly no monster in the fridge. (Wait, what?)
  
• Pet the cat, capture the cat in a ball, fight challengers. (No, don't! Just take care of your child!)

The full version will have more: more polish, more complete narrative, more everything. If you like what you see, I'd really appreciate a wishlist on Steam.

A note on the browser version

I highly recommend downloading the game to play it - it will give you the best experience. If you want to tes the demo out you can play it directly in your browser, but I've removed music and other assets to keep the file size down. The finished version will only be released as a download.

Thanks for taking the time to check out the game!
