Update: Added the link to the post compo version which has major fixes for the bugs like 'Marriage' and 'Gift Planning' keep reappearing. Use the 'Web' version to judge and use the 'Fix' version to enjoy the game :)

Growing up is not easy, as you can see from the life of John.
In the tutorial I said you can hover the stats to see more information. I lied (well, I ran out of time). Here is the list of stats explained:
1. (Card) Number of cards you need to select this turn to advance to the next turn
2. (Cake) John's age
3. (Heart) John's health, when it reaches 0, the game ends
4. (Smiley Face) John's happiness, when it reaches 0, shuffle 'Depression' into the deck
5. (Book) John's knowledge, mostly just affects if you get 'Promotion' or not.
6. (Chat Bubble) John's social stat. Very important stat in the beginning because if your social is less than 5, you would be forever alone in the game (No relationship and marriage cards)
7. (Couple) John's relationship stat. A 'Marriage' card will be shuffled into your deck when it reaches 50. If it is below 0, a 'Breakup' or 'Divorce' card will be shuffled into your deck.
8. (Money) John's financial stat. When your money drop belows 0, a 'In Debt' card will be shuffled into the deck.
