very fun idea, can confirm the true value of cats. the interface feels a little slow, i would prefer something more in line with the anxiety mechanic :P

I've got a sudden urge to clean up my room, thanks.

Got a good laugh out of this! (real banger that music tho)

Nice game! When I played I was trying to only get good deals, and so I lost due to rising stress in the background instead of running out of space. The only problem I had was that the scrolling in the market felt super slow and hard to control. Adding a scroll bar would probably help fix that. Only other suggestion is to add more variety for pictures and stuffs, but you probably expected that. Love the concept and you had solid execution!

Very fun take on the theme. And a little sad. Scrolling could be faster, and too bad there weren't more items to place. However, I think that buying a cat is never a bad deal! Btw I love very bad quality pictures on the marketplace, it's really like buying used things online from people! Makes sense that I was doing well with monitors!

couldn't go to the end but i was happy to organise so much stuff to optimize space.

The idea fits the theme well, but the game could really use more items. Moving purchases takes way too long.

I love the marketplace photos and descriptions. Definitely do need that 5th synth for my garage.

Poor cats though.
