Pressed

Pressed is a life simulator with narrative elements exploring the challenge of finding a job while managing daily stress.  Submit applications and attend interviews to reach your goal of being employed, but don't forget to take care of yourself! If you don't take care of your chores in time, you'll get increasingly stressed out. However, missing out on networking events and job opportunities can be just as stressful.

Each task contains a brief button-pressing minigame during which in-game time will pass. Complete them as quickly as possible so you have enough time to do your other tasks.

 Don't get pressed!
