DoomScrolling
You ever doomscrolled until you reached the depth of the internet? You know that place, where short videos become extremely weird and you understand it’s time to sleep already. This is the game about that.
How to play
- Your goal is to make your stress level 0 (shown on your watches on the left)
- You replenish stress by watching cat videos and fireplace videos
- For the rest you have to comment. Every such video causes you stress equal to amount of likes. If you get more likes then the post, you replenish equal amount of stress.
- You can swipe away any video except troll. Troll will stay there.
- Clicking “Refresh” causes stress. Your vocabulary is finite per video.
- Once you run out of battery or get your stress to max you reboot the device and get the new OS update. This might make game easier.
- Good luck!

after trying it the second time the feed just stayed black, or i did not understand what i had to do. i also don't understand what the keyboard memory is. and i hate that tutorial style where you get interrupted and can only do what the tutorial wants you to, but that could just be me. took a bit to load as well.
Thanks for the review!
If you remember, could you please share what happened second time? Was it after first loss when the game starts again? Was it black immediately or you were able to play a bit?
Yes it was after the first loss. No I could look at the memory and use the comments button but the feed didn't give me new posts so to say.
Got it, thanks so much for the follow up, I'll try to repro this. Also noted the feedback on tutorial, I think I can replace at least part of it with a more descriptive UI.
