Short and sweet. It was fun finding the second ending!

Searched "zine making" here on itchio and found this zine. While I've never said "I've always wanted to make a zine someday" out loud to someone, I've always *thought* it, and I think this zine has helped me get through my problem–which was, 100%, that I didn't think what I had to write about was worth putting into a zine, lol. really called me out there! I'll definitely send you my first zine once I make it!
Hi! I downloaded this to stop myself from posting passive-aggressive vague posts on social media whenever I saw something that made me angry. It has worked pretty well for that purpose! My next step in using it is to start posting positive notes on there so I can hit the #positive hashtag to see them when I'm done ranting. Thank you for making this!
I really love this, & it's helped me many times over the past years.
I'm mostly writing this comment because I finally figured something out and want to share it with others: one of the tips (the kitchen timer) wasn't helping me consistently, and I didn't know how to fix it. I had a kitchen timer and all, but when I set it, it was mostly just annoying me and I got frequently distracted during the first 20 minutes. it helped enough that i wanted to keep trying it, though, so I was pretty sure I could fix the issue.
finally, I realized two things: for me personally, the kitchen timer wasn't great for less active tasks (writing, for example), but it was fantastic for physical things like Cleaning, etc. second, if I got distracted in the first 20 minutes, I could just set it for 10-15 minutes at a time. the more frequent interruption of resetting the clock was beneficial because it was less an "interruption" and more a reminder to stay on task.
so yeah! sharing that in case it helps anyone else reading the comments.
As a tamagotchi fan whose tamagotchis are currently without batteries, I love this a lot! I misread the instructions, and after doing the lifespan check, I have been taking numerous turns per day. I prefer it this way and will not be playing it correctly. My current C-Pet is named Rockin', is 6 days old, and has 6 traits: Slime Body, Water Affinity, Claws, Compound Eyes, Earth Affinity, and Feathers. I have taped my info card to the laminated (packing tape) C-Pet card for your viewing pleasure.
I finally sat down and started work on my game after coming up with the concept at the beginning of the jam and then doing Nothing.
The concept is a CCG where your to-do list is the deck and each task is a card. I'm still working out the mechanics, but you would write down your task on an index card, write the estimated time it takes to complete it, and then the actual time; cards with an estimated time close to the actual time have a higher attack, and cards that take longer have a higher defense.
Three variants for play: one where you only play with task-cards that are completed, one where you play with a mix of task-cards, but you have to complete the task within 6-12 hours of playing it (or some other time limit agreed on by the players), and one where you only play with task-cards that are not completed, trade decks, and when you play a card, your opponent has to do their task on the card–and vice-versa.
This is my *sixth* to-do list game concept, but the first that involves playing against others, so it's a new and interesting challenge.
