Description

Soothe the Cycle is a relationship-focused game where the player takes on the role of a supportive partner trying to help their significant other through the ups and downs of their mood swings. The gameplay revolves around completing various tasks and requests assigned by the partner, with the goal of keeping their "Irritability Meter" from reaching 100% and triggering a "Game Over."

The game is an endless experience, with the partner continuously assigning new tasks and requests to the player. Tasks may include bringing specific food or comfort items, helping with chores or errands.

If the player fails to complete the task as soon as possible, the partner's "Irritability Meter" will rise, indicating their growing frustration.

As the Irritability Meter fills, the partner's mood and dialogue will become more volatile, making it increasingly difficult to keep them calm and satisfied.

The goal is to keep the partner's Irritability Meter as low as possible for as long as possible, earning points for successful task completion and maintaining a calm, supportive environment.
