This is a really good game, I enjoyed the gameplay!
OMG you can customize your character... best ld ever!!!! nice concept ;) good work
Interesting idea, like this game, great:)
Customizable characters are cool! I like the gameplay. Took me 3 attempts to beat the life. Nice job!
Awesome job guys, can tell you put quite a bit of effort into this, and it shows great job!
That's a good game, loved the idea
Fab game. I got rejected and couldn't cope with it! Great with the character customisation, and the art style was interesting. Theme was top notch as you could gamble your health. Great concept.
<3 @oddsocks
Fun game, love the idea :)
Good interpretation of the theme, and a polished presentation. The gameplay itself (a series of minigames, often based purely on chance) didn't really grab me - don't think there was much to "figure out", more just doing things repeatedly? Great job creating something that feels very complete though!
I had to spend a couple of tries before i figured what i had to do to optimize my life: Such a fun idea! I loved the character creation and the voice acting was a wonderful touch! The graphics were well made and the game was intuitive for the most part. Well done!
An interesting idea, I really liked the game, only I never finished it)
Got sentenced to life for lifting like a beast, glad I dont live in such an anti gains world lul. With some more variety (especially in the dating department) I could see this becoming an interesting experience, but at the moment it feels too repetitive for what it is aiming to be. Very well executed none the less, well done!
Amazing game! How did you get tsois much done in such a short period of time? The amount of activities, customizations and outcomes are mind-boggling!
Brilliant little game! Nice use of a bunch of minigames and nice to see a character creator in there! I think the rejection penalties are a bit harsh in some situations, I mean losing 150HP for getting rejected sucks, especially if you have to go through the character creator again (I just didn't bother after a couple of times). Great graphics and use of the theme, good job!
I have to say this is a really funny game for me! I think the art style needs a little more polisihing, but it could just not really be my taste. I really like the ease of control and the quick explanation at the beginning, that's a plus for me!
@refraction yeah, the ultimate sadness had a 25% chance xD thanks for the review though :D
@raffe 25%?? damn I was unlucky! xD RNG must hate me lol
Lovely Idea, I just think that there should be some sort of indicator that the player will break a machine on the gym, for example, otherwise it's too random (the player won't feel that it was their fault)
@johnnydalvi yeah I get you, the point with this game was to just make it so flippin random and funny that the player doesn't even have to do anything by themselves. And it's just rng, it has a 10% chance to break if it goes to 100 score 10 times.
Haha that was a fun little ride - thanks for that :D :D I love how youre able to bail out of jail for free if you're a guy but not as a woman :up: I feel like textbox choices would've also fit to the game without being too much work :) (like in Faster Than Light for example) Well done! ;)
Just a normal day: I woke up, pumped up my muscles at the gym, broke something, met a cool judge who also hates gyms. After that I won at the casino, drank some alcohol and went back to the gym to flirt a little... As I said, a normal day :grin: I really like the concept behind the game. It feels polished and the artstyle was great. I love that you managed to put in a character creation. really well done!
@daspanjo Ahh feels so good to hear that you enjoyed it.. **JUST A NORMAL DAY**
@fatpenguin Sorry to say this, but the bail out for free are just complete RNG XD I think it’s like 1/4 chance to bail out for free, but I guess you got lucky lol. And thanks for the improvement proposal. Everything is really important to us!
@khamekaze and @xmpted <3<3 And yeah, it can easily feel **A BIT** too repetitive, but sadly there was a danger zone called time limit.. ;_;
@agurcan <3
Very cool game. Although I didn't know it is illegal to date a 16 year old, haha. :D Dating is just dating. But it's all good fun.
@j-c-one-bit-studio Yup, it is illegal to date a 16 year old as an adult in most countries. (Except for something like China where it is goddamn **12**..) <-- We do our research. Thanks for the review doe!
Pretty nice!
Hahahaha, this is so funny :D. And everything works good. Such a nice game.
This game was really really fun. A little too luck based for my taste (got arrested the first time I touched a piece of gym equipment. Nonetheless, it was funny, and the voice acting was icing on the cake.
Untitled.png hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Very cool. Character Customization, music, voice over, humor, theme implementation and graphics all on point. Good job!
I hate gyms... hahaha nice xD
nice game overall very good experience!
So beeing good at live is random, sounds right. But it was a little too random for my taste. But other than that good job.

Great idea, well executed and polished for such a little amount of time :D
An interesting game with character creation. I like the scenes when the police catch you.
@ludwici :DD
A very fun game, super well polished and enjoyable for only 3 days. I would believe (though I am in no way saying that you did) that you made this beforehand and turned it in, it's that good. My favorite game from this LD so far! Hats off to you guys!
So apparently I got really lucky when playing this game according to the dev. I won on my first try using the gym equipment to get all the way to 150. As I understand it, each click (or each time you gain life) it had a 10% chance of breaking the equipment. I manged to avoid that until I beat the game. I had some other dumb luck as well.
@mathstr0fficial Hey, I can gladly tell you we did everything from the start :) No ready asset used, no ready music used, no lines of code ready, everything was done during these 72 hours! Thanks for the review though XD (best compliment we could get :3)
Well, at first i got rejected by Cindy Stone, so I dated an older chick and that went well, then Cindy Stone couldn't keep her hands off me. 10/10 would win at life again. Great job guys!
It was pretty fun to play. The voices are a bit strange ^^ but they give this game a selfmade touch :D and I love how "I don't like the gym" is a valid ecxuse in front of the judge xD
Really fun idea, I like the character creation !
Haha, quite good! Like the idea and the tutorial :) 'I hate gyms'

Quite hard, but has a lot of character customization, good game!
Almost fun! Much RNG, such tragedy. Why does the judge have so many daugthers? :D
Great job! I kept getting arrested for breaking gym equipment, so I gave up and became a gambler and serial dater. I assume you can get arrested for dating, gambling, and/or drinking but I didn't run into any of that. I loved the humor, especially the voice acting! I'm very impressed that this was done in such a short time, especially the character customization! I do wish it was a little less random, like maybe there's a way to tell if someone's going to be down to date or not, but overall it was definitely a fun game!
