i find it ironically hilarious that the best way to get fun is the agonize over which deodorant to pick all day long. you can get over 50,000 fun easily.

From the source I don’t think there’s an explicit ending.

Linda’s arc has closure with an intentionally tone-deaf quest to leave condolences in exchange for Fun. The other two patrons fizzle out with a prolonged anticlimax, either eternally waiting for a social media response from a date or talking about quitting Fun altogether. There’s code in there for an indie coffee shop that can’t afford to bribe its patrons with Fun, but I didn’t see any hooks to enable it in the release build.

Dev says it was a college project, so it’s likely the dev lowered the scope due to time constraints. Still, I liked the constant presence of corporate gamification systems all competing to monopolize your time and the impact that has on your play style and the characters enough to post.

The trick is to never use the phone, ignore points in all things and type words into the text parser response box to get out-of-sequence conversations. Theres gotta be a secret ending lurking in that text parser somewhere!

Same here. Only got four or five days in before I just couldn’t take the pressure.

I too can’t bear to play this for long… but I can tell it’s great in at least as many respects as it is terrible.

Clearly I don’t want to live in that future. Couldn’t stand playing more than 5 minutes.
