Description
Letters fall endlessly from above. Ignore them for too long, and they begin merging into larger, heavier stacks i.e. problems for your future self.
What starts as a simple typing game slowly turns into a fight against overwhelming accumulation, as the screen fills with your unfinished backlog.
Built around the theme “Everything Has a Cost”, every power-up & neglect affects the flow of the game. It also featuring multiple game modes and lo-fi music to keep you company during coding/work sessions.
Small problems become bigger ones.
Delayed problems become overwhelming ones.
