Oh, hi there! Your friendly neighborhood dad Linus here. I just wanted to let you know that I've just finished the major narrative arc that I want to include in the game, and I'm pretty proud of it! It was the most important thing that I wanted to make for the full version, so it was real good getting it done. Now I just need to get to the one million other things I also want to include. With that out of the way I decided to revisit the UI. It didn't feel quite right, so I...
- Made the buttons bigger
- Increased the contrast of some elements
- Made it work better on different screen resolutions
- Adjusted some font sizes
- And made the game work waaaay better with controllers and keyboard
You're a dad

You're a dad is a text adventure about becoming a father. Get up, take care of your child, buy groceries, prepare dinner. Do nothing else. Repeat every day, because...
... You're a dad!
This is your child. It is your job to make sure he thrives, or at least makes it through the day. You can go skating, imaginary monster hunting, or just sleep the day away. 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!
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.
Key features
A lovely story based on the maker's experience of becoming a dad
A non-linear narrative in a sandbox. You go where you like

Pet the cat, capture the cat in a ball, fight challengers (No, don't! Just take care of your child!)
