Happy Life
The theme of LD46 is Keep it alive.
You do your best to keep your digital pet alive, but at what cost? What other aspects of your life need to be kept alive as well?
Everything could hinge on one stressful evening in this point-and-click life management sim. Can you keep your happy life together for another day, or will it all come crashing down?
Pay attention to the important things and take it seriously, but don't forget to live a little!

Great game! This is the best pet game I have played until now, really fun. It is especially nice that you don't just interact with the pet but also with the phone, the girl and wine. Also well balanced.
I also want to give you some feedback on it. The art looks great. But when I played the game for the first time, I was overwhelmed by all the information. If you found a way to communicate all this information in a different or improved way (highlights, outlines around interactable elements etc.), it could have been cleaner.
But that is really some small complaint which is almost negligible. And for a game jam, this game is fantastic .
Btw do you have the url to the Ludum Dare webpage?
