Self Control
A downloadable game for Android
You have to do something!
Like, anything at all! Get out of bed! Do your work! Get dressed! Move any part of your body! Please. You have so much work to do, and yet you remain in bed, riddled with anxiety and guilt, and unable to a single thing about it.
You'll find a way through somehow. You always do.
Current Development
This game will see additional changes in the next few months, including a few more mini-games, additional music, and some improved graphics + controls. I will make announcement posts when large updates arrive. Follow my twitter for development updates and in progress screenshots as well!
Controls + Accessibility
This game uses touch controls, often requiring only single button presses, and could be played with one hand. Contains some minimal flashing lights.
Contact dvincenz@umich.edu if you are having trouble playing and we can find a way to make it work for you! I will be creating multiple control schemes as I work on the non-mobile versions.
Recommended Specs
Android 7.1 Nougat (Minimum: 4.1 Jelly Bean (untested))

Features
Includes a pdf containing and instruction manual which provides further context and lore behind the game, in the style of an old Gameboy Color manual.
