a lot of the time I just felt like 'personal time'

Really well implemented. A bit too complicated for my casual game nowadays

This was great, could use an easy mode because I'm terrible, but I had great fun.

I liked it, maybe you could make this into a greenlight game with a few upgrades.

Hard, but great idea, could be built upon to make it more complex and bigger. Great job.

Really like the game! Finished 2 times on normal but it's too hard for me on hard difficulty. Well done!

I love it :)

This is the kind of game in which I can see myself getting lost in the mechanics. I was giddy when I found out you had left the Flixel debugging interface on, because I thought I'd get to see some cool stuff like the underlying numbers or something, but you didn't actually write anything to the log.

(I'm totally going to dig through your source code. Hope you don't mind.)

Is that a Box–Muller transform? Nice :)

I have no idea what just happened. Box-Muller.

@monika

I actually just use trace for debugging - I tend to use the flixel debugger mostly for performance monitoring.

Originally I wanted some of the randomness to be in a normal distribution hence that method - but I actually abandoned as the normal randomness was all I needed.

I've updated the source zip to include my version of flixel - I've modified it slightly from the official version but I forgot to include it in the source this time.

Surprising amount of fun for just clicking and watching bars fill up.

I feel dumb for not being able to beat this on normal difficulty after a half-dozen tries. I understand what all the meeting types do, but it seems like no matter what I do, the stats get worse faster than they get better.

Regardless, amazing and unique game!
