So even though there's not much here at the moment, I really like the game and where it looks like it's going!
As far as balancing issues go, I have two thoughts:
First, concerning the energy consumption. I think that having fitness decrease the energy cost of activities instead of increasing your max energy might be a better way to go - I got my max energy around 200, but sleep only gives 70 max, and the shower only gives 25, so you can't even store 200 energy unless you shower, eat, go to bed, and then do that again, leaving you doing nothing except possibly shopping for 2 days out of the week. If fitness instead reduced the amount of energy each task required (down to a minimum of some sort), then that would be one fix. The other thing would be to have sleep (when hunger > 0) restore 70% of energy instead of a flat 70 energy, and same with showering (25% instead of a flat 25).
My second thought is this: if we are a handy man, and we are increasing our repair skill/knowledge, shouldn't that also reduce the cost of our repairs for the apartment? If we are getting better/more efficient/etc. at repairing things, then it would make sense to me that the total cost of repairs should go down as well.
Anyway, as I said I'm enjoying the game so far and look forward to where it's going! (And also to the movie files being fixed for firefox as others have mentioned).
And lastly, here's hoping for some kind of harem/pregnant harem ending!

There already is a porn game called "The Handyman", you can find it here on f95 as well...since you are so early in development, changing the name now could be a good step to avoid future confusion.
Found HERE, so yeah, a name change would probably be a good idea.
When the intro video for Sandra was supposed to play, it would not. Using Win 10 and Google Chrome. No error, just wouldn't play. The game is looking for intro.mp4 within the /data/Sandra folder, which exists as intro.mkv. Edited the html file in Notepad++, and changed to intro.mkv, and it plays.

Greetings,
Love this game, is a totally different type of approaching this games.
The only thing i thing should be rebalance is the grinding, is to much, and reduces the interrest in the story.
Keep up the work.
Looking forward to the update.

You can use Z-archiver for mobile to unzip and zip files for Android. It's really nifty and how I play most of the HTML content I play on my mobile.sorry but it's not made for smartphone use

I think the quickest fix to a lot of the brutal grinding, would be to simply have the energy from sleep rather then being a fixed number, simply scale off of max. (Energy being a bar rather then a number made me at first think this was going to be how it worked to begin with)
Side note, is their anyway to finish the pool, or is that just wear the story ends for now?

How many months does it take to fix the damn pool? lol Is this just the end of content and I'm grinding for nothing? And of course as soon as I type this out the very next time I made him work, he completed it.
I would've felt like a real dummy if I had've posted before I played more lol
