Nice job on the theme. It would've been interesting to see more visibly change throughout the game -- use that nice interface you made! :)

meskaline 2017-12-04 07:14

@relsqui Thanks for your comment. Didn't had the time, but good point there. ;)

Nice concept and good work on the graphics.

Could have used some more direction during the game.

riemann-integrable 2017-12-04 07:15

Cool idea. It might be interesting if you could go backwards in time... Nice job :)

jani-nykanen 2017-12-04 07:16

I like the idea and the original way to use the theme.

meskaline 2017-12-04 07:34

@lawzy93 : Thanks for the advice. :D @riemann-integrable : Life doesen't work that way. :))) @jani-nykanen : Thanks!

Interesting idea for sure, made me feel bad - but in a honest way - it's hard to see people take the path of self-destruction, good job reflecting that. Interesting concept, but oddly, not moralistic. Good Work!

meskaline 2017-12-04 07:41

@mark-kennedy Thanks for the comment. I went for a deep meaning. I think it is moralistic... you die young if you don't balance yourself, but maybe I didn't express myself well enough. Thanks again!

Interesting concept, would have been nice to have some sfx and music though.

meskaline 2017-12-04 11:35

@sbarrio Thanks! :D I didn't had time for sound. Next time.

tomas-selmeci 2017-12-04 12:03

I really liked this game. I died in 34 but my life was worth it!

meskaline 2017-12-04 12:24

@tomas-selmeci Thanks and I'm glad you liked it. :D

lawrence 2017-12-04 18:24

Quite original. I died at 46 :smile:

Was wondering if I'll see a phaser game. Was not disappointed. :smile:

Good job!

gimbalock 2017-12-04 21:06

Nice idea. Looks nice with the icon built up. I like the character design! Good job!

bookworm31 2017-12-05 08:28

This was a neat game! It felt a bit slow/repetitive at times but I liked the concept. The graphics and interface were really cool; I like how they changed depending on the choices you made.

meskaline 2017-12-05 10:02

@lawrence Thanks for you comment. 46 is a good score as it seams. @gimbalock Thank you very much. @bookworm31 Thanks, I learn a lot from your comments. :)

I liked trying to build up my booze meter. XD This was a good entry for the theme, nice work! It was funny too!

unfinished 2017-12-05 12:09

Nice work! Would be nice if it gets sound effects and illustrations to the texts, but then again: I finished my game last night at 2:55 am and don't have any graphics at all :D.

mighty-chebo 2017-12-05 12:16

Quite enjoyable. Nice, unusual visuals. I don't have much criticism to add that hasn't already been said other than the moving right seems unnecessary and the choices seem maybe a little too random. I had fun playing it and went through a couple of times. I hope you explore these themes further in the future!

davidvallee42 2017-12-05 12:21

Nice ! i think i'm bad at this game My best score is 37 ^^. I need to stop go to the night club... Good Work

tvance 2017-12-05 15:22

LOL @ "life doesn't go backwards" This idea was well executed.

szekeres-szabolcs 2017-12-05 15:28

Drink, drink, drink

steel-dev 2017-12-05 15:33

Nice job! kinda wish the game was a bit faster, though

carraka 2017-12-06 00:27

I played at myself and died at 28 from social media overdose ... seems prescient.

Good job with the theme! I wish there had been a little more variety in the choices, especially later on in the game. It would also have been nice if the game could track whether you had already proposed to your lover, though that would be huge to take on.

If I click outside of the game and then click on the game again I seem to be unable to perform actions (move or 1-3). This happens consistently (on Chrome).

The game is pretty depressing, but I guess that's intentional.

I didn't really understand how the vices affected me. I think I ended up choosing a little of everything. Did I get an illness because of smoking? Did my character feel depressed because I lost a lot of money?

How do you feel about betting? I like to bet on horse races, but I rarely get to win.

2022-11-26 12:05

I've recently placed a few bets on horse racing, and it's pretty enjoyable. I don't have any experience in this field, so it's hard to predict the end of a horse race. However, I love betting in general. It's my hobby. It's exciting for me. I've been betting since I was a kid (my father loved gambling). By the way, what sites do you play on? I know there are many scams nowadays, and I am afraid to lose my money. Because of the extensive choice, it isn't easy to choose a good platform. Now I play on https://parimatch-au.com/. Have you heard anything about it? I want to listen to your opinion.
