I'm lost for words for how amazing this game is, and I appreciated that it was free, thank you Calunio I'll be looking forward for more of your creations.
amazing gameplay, I personally loved this so much. it's everything I wanted in a game, the art is supper nice and the story is good. what I love the most is the concept of the game, BUT an issue I personally have is the anxiety levels. everything you do keeps it going up but I understand why. so far AMAZING game. love it.
I'm going to be livestreaming this game tomorrow night! That is, Sunday 26 April, 5pm PT / 8pm ET. Calunio might likely be there himself. Come join us! We hope to see you there.

This game is a lot of fun, but whenever you start to study, a message pops up where it says he wishes he was doing something better with his time, and no progress is made. Besides that, I really like this game and am definitely looking forward to more patches and the full game.
This game is cool! keep it up!
THERAPIST: Mind Manager is a visual novel with simulation elements set on modern times, following the life of an ordinary man working as a psychotherapist.
Your main stats are MOOD, ANXIETY, STAMINA and MONEY. Every action and event affect some or all of those stats. If MOOD is low or ANXIETY is high, there are certain actions your character will not perform. If your stats reach critical levels, the effects are more tragic. Your main goal in the game is to remain sane and balanced throughout the story.
Working as a therapist, you also need to keep your patients sane and balanced. Conducting a therapy session requires multiple skills: maintaining your posture, validating your patient through dialog choices, choosing appropriate intervention approaches and performing skill tests. Session scoring affects feedback from your patients and the game ending.
The story plot focuses on the existential downward spiral of the main character and the moral and ethical challenges posed by one of your patients: an admitted sexual offender.
The topic of rape is addressed through numerous elements of the game. Other socially relevant issues are discussed in a non-manichaean fashion, including mental health, interpersonal relationships, substance abuse and suicide.
 There are three endings in the game.
Cartoon Violence
Sexual Violence
Alcohol Use
Brief Nudity
Sexual Themes
Language

The game is getting close to completion. After finishing, I'll need a couple of weeks for testing, and the release date should be mid-July. It's both exciting and scary to finish a game!
1I'm curious: have you ever been to a therapy session?
Who's in a party mood?
I decided to release a demo version of this game. It contains almost everything the final version of the game will, except it ends after 15 days, instead of the full month of the game original story.
Any sort of feedback is more than welcome!
