Do your best to learn as much as you can, get your parents keys and get out the front door without dying in the process.

Well I enjoyed it enough to keep playing it after a couple of deaths.. though you can get stuck on/behind doors when opening them (I got stuck in the Pizza on the floor room) Nice Work :thumbsup:

I play this game for a few try, and yeah, when i try to open the door and take the key from parent, i always get stucked. About the theme i still can't get the point, But Nice :v:

This was fun. I was intrigued enough to keep going for a while. I don't know what's going on with the keys, but that's the part I couldn't get past. I wish the map and graphics were a little more clear. Great job!

They grow up so fast!

I like the concept, I think there was a classic C64 game that was similar.
The aging seemed to happen randomly. The first time I played I "grew" up almost immediately. The third time it almost didn't happen at all.
Every time I lost, it was unclear what had finished me. The return to the title is a little bit of a jolt.

Getting the paper was cool, but the parent and the dog were relentless.

Not bad. A bit of walking, a bit of collecting, a bit of stealth/evasion. I think the parent could've used something like a vision cone to show when they were going to start tracking you. That part was pretty tough. Could've used a bit more polish on the text, sometimes it appears off screen, and in one place (the closet above the second bathroom) it appears partially behind the sink.
