A Meme Clicker game gone wrong. How long can you survive?

Lean Simulator: Desperation is a fusion of the Clicker and Survival genres.
At a surface level this is a meme game but under that unfunny purple coating, you'll find this is a (relatively tame) horror game.
There are monsters after you. You need to click fast and be prepared to adapt to new situations to survive as long as possible.

The Lean Monsters seek 1 thing: Lean.
That's all, provide them Lean and they'll leave you alone.
To acquire Lean, simply provide fuel to the Lean Machean by spamming the button attached to it and you will start acquiring Lean over time.
Just make sure to keep the Lean Machean fueled and Stabilised.

Feeling thirsty? There's a Cuboid of Lean in the room with you that will never run out.
Drink from it whenever your vision starts blurring. Difficulty to focus is a sign of Dehydration.
Make sure not to drink too much though as Lean is highly addictive.

Thankfully, you aren't doing this for free. The Lean Monsters will pay you in Bread for giving them Lean.
You can use Bread to Upgrade your Lean Quality, or Output Quantity.
You can also use it to re-stabilise the Lean Machean in the event it destabilises too far.
You could also re-stabilise the Lean Machean manually by accessing a hatch next to it but it's recommended to save that for emergencies as you cannot defend yourself while performing Maintenance.

PTSD is an acronym for Potential to Stack Dough, it represents how far you've come since the beginning of the game.
The better you perform in a single run, the more PTSD you will earn to spend on making future runs easier.
It is essential that you make full use of your PTSD, as you'll need to be prepared for whatever the next run might throw at you.
