THIS GAME CONTAINS RUDE LANGUAGE FOR THE TRUE LANDLORD EXPERIENCE

A game about building an apartment, going as long as possible without going broke, and keeping your tenants happy.

I didn't know what to make with this theme at first, but this was what I decided on. I figured the more tenants you get, the more complaints you get, and the angrier they get. Eventually, tenants might get pissed and trash the place if you aren't listening to them, and that might drive you to bankruptcy.

This game entirely uses the mouse. If I'd had more time, I would have added more options for interacting with the building. Right now it's nice to look around and see how your tenants have repainted their apartments, but being able to destroy part of the building or build the apartment however you see fit might be interesting. If I were going to add anything like that, I would make the complaints less frequent and more varied. But for now, it stands as an arcade-y game where you try to build up your building and keep people happy!

Music was done by my friend, Matt Greene, and because he made the music, I have to enter this into the Jam. I think it was worth it, even though, due to my own time constraints, I made this game in 48 hours.

The game should be playable on Mac and Linux if you have Mono, but I was not able to test that in time for release.
