A really cool concept, i love the procedural changing map. The retro style sure add to the mood. It seems a very good idea to develop further. Good job!

PD: The game freezes sometimes on the web browser, maybe because of my computer.

Interesting! This fun game matched your title pretty well I think! I got the feeling that this game is telling us to take opportunities when they arise, because when the moment passes you might miss out forever! But also that you just plain can't have it all so you gotta prioritize. Especially adding time to the clock, always go for the clock! My best score: 3593. Now for some bugs: Retry didn't work for me, it would restart the level but then immediately end and start adding my previous score. When I refreshed the page the audio was missing.

The Atari mood is interesting. The sound when the game ends scared the shit out of me. But after that I couldn`t play anymore because the score keeps adding itself, I don`nt know why.

I like the style and I really enjoyed the map changing around you, and not all at once, but wall by wall... There wasn't much to the gameplay but it was still fun. I like the theme of running out of time and having to choose. And the dog (it was a dog, right?) slowing you down but being cute :)

A good game in a pacman-style ^^

Nice concept !

I think the idea is fine. You can try to polish it more.
Meet the retry bug also (windows ver).
The auto-changeable map is really some work I think?

Cool idea, I like the rearranging mazes.

This is a neat concept, it does a good job of generating a lot of relatable feelings. The mechanics very nicely complement the idea behind it! The only real issue I had with it was a technical one, when I was prompted to play again I pressed a key, a new map loaded in but I just died immediately and my score from the previous round was re-tallied again.
