sleep not - demo
A staying up simulator.

In “sleep not”, you have to successfully pull an all nighter, without neither falling asleep, or getting caught past your bedtime.

Movement: Arrow Keys
You have to maximize the time you stay on your phone to maintain your fun, which maintains your energy AND you have to constantly check the doors to hear any sign of someone coming. In that case, pretend to sleep in your bed immediately.
Keep in mind that energy does not increase once it has gone down. So, you must keep an eye on your fun bar, and make sure it goes down as little as possible. Low fun results in energy decreasing extremely fast. To increase your fun, you must be in your bed, and using your phone (by pressing E) You will put down your phone once you get out of the bed.

5 levels centering around the same core mechanics, but with varying difficulty that influences how fast your bars go down, and how likely someone is to come in.
An infinite mode, with the worst difficulty of all. This one brings an arcadey feel to the game, making it so you simply survive as long as you can! I'd love to see the high scores from anyone who plays this.

I will release some updates to this demo to refine and polish it more! I made this in somewhat of a hurry, and I was incredibly stressed about changing anything that might cause it to break. Hopefully releasing it will help me make major changes :D I will consider a full version in the future.
the game also unfortunately lacks a lot of music (and some sound) right now, which is something I plan to improve with time! I was planning to make music for it, but the development of this demo is something I had to get done with to actually progress in developing other aspects, and I didn't want to put terrible or rushed music.
