Mechanically the game is excellent, having to complete tasks while keeping the water and food meters up is brilliant. However it is far too short, I bet you could have this become a endless arcade sort of thing. Oh and I couldn't find out how to fill up my hunger bar, maybe clarify that a bit better. Finally, the meters are too forgiving, I think they need to be a bit harder in order add pressure onto the player. Overall, nicely done.
Thank you for your kind words! The idea of making it endless is great, maybe I will work on that, but then first of all I should clean up the project XD. But how would you do that? I mean doing the quests over and over is a bit boring, isn't it? . And you can fill up your hunger bar by going to the person in the house and press space like in the "tutorial".
Ah sorry about the food, didn't notice that. And yes while doing the same quest over and over again would be boring. What would not be boring would be a handful of quests (like 5 different ones) that get harder and harder. A score counter could be added the amount of tasks completed, giving the player something to aim for, to have the highest score possible. With a bit of polish I feel that you could make a really good little arcade game.
