Work-Life Balance
You juggle two jobs and a whirlwind of daily life tasks. Each day, you must tackle one work task and one life task — simultaneously!
Find your balance and complete all tasks across 4 demanding days to maximize your score and prove you can handle it all.
Can you beat my high score of 30'599?
This is my submission to Gamedev.js Jam 2025! Challenges I participated for this jam:
- Open Source Challenge by GitHub: Code is available on GitHub.
- Build it with Phaser Challenge by Phaser Studio: Phaser framework was used to create this game.

How to Play
For 4 days, you must juggle two roles—Accountant and Editor—while handling daily life tasks: Dancing Class and Lawn Mowing. Each day, complete one work and one life task simultaneously within 60 seconds.
- Life tasks earn you points.
- Work tasks apply a multiplier to those points.
Balance your focus to maximize both!
Work Tasks
- Accountant: Add cash and inventory to calculate total assets. Pick the correct answer from four options.
- Editor: Spot the typo among four words.
Life Tasks
- Dancing Class: Follow your teacher’s moves by raising your left or right hand up or down as shown in the speech bubble.
- Lawn Mowing: Steer your mower through the backyard by turning clockwise or anticlockwise to cut as much grass as possible.
