Weight, when do I Hibernate?

Created for the "Lo-Cal" Gain Jam hosted by for 2023.

The game tasks you to be the character's lil conscious and try to steer them into being able to go into a full hibernation sleep (at least 7 months), but they always seem so petite and can barely get 3 months in. During their wake time you'll try and drive their decisions to help them reach that 7 month long slumber. While during their down time you can subconsciously alter their needs and responses as you'll need them to pack on the weight in the next go so they can sleep longer.

Each "day" you choose an option of what they'll do and see how their stats fluctuate, the stats being Weight, Strength, Income, Happiness, and Willpower. After each run your awarded R(EM) points (permanent points you can collect and redistribute) and Z points (dream points that you can distribute freely and resets on each run).

I didn't get a chance to write the win condition, but I planned to award the player a star on their profile for reaching 570lbs and completing every task there was. So you can consider "beating" the game to be those 2 conditions. I may add this feature in after the jam.
