Neat game, really enjoy the death messages.

I do have a criticism though. It can be a bit hard to aim without a proper reticule, especially with some of the falling "death causes" being really fast.

I FUCKING LOVE THIS GAME!!!!the graphics are so cooool and the concept so original, just the falling death who are really fast but wow

@hgjake Thank you for the comment! We made some last-minute adjustment for the speed (it is probably still gonna be hard since life is tough^ ^).

I fell in love with this graphics, art is just chic, especially when you lose!!!!

You, sir have a great sense of humor. I am an 8 years old girl and die from sexual transmitted disease :)) Great game.

That was... Dark 😭

"You died of pneumonia at age 12"!

Love the music, and how stressful the bullet mechanic is.

@tano This was not written in the mechanism originally, we will work on this bug. (Perhaps this game is darker than I think.)

I like how societal problems and injuries are red, physical illnesses green, and mental illnesses blue. Game is hard, trying to deal with my depression and bladder infection when all of a sudden a STD comes flying in, gotta react fast! Art is absolutely amazing.

Fix Log:

- fix the problem of not playing audio for one of the endings

The idea is good reminds me of Rainbow game I've made years ago. Unfortunately, the major issue I have is color. It's hard to identify color border when main color of the "cause" is totally different. It would be better if colors are consistent.

I died of cancer at around 70 hahah. Really well thought out, and it has some great art! Nice job

BWAHH THIS HAD ME LAUGHING OUT LOUD WITH THE ENDING CARDS The idea is really good, though perhaps im just really bad at playing it because i did struggle a bit to make it past 10 years old...........the shame. Over all this is a great entry i had lots of fun playing! It also looks and sounds great! Everyone did a wonderful job on it. However i will say that the bullets felt a bit slow/didn't speed up, but maybe its just me being nit-picky and terrible at shooter games

@toto-dawg Thank you for the feedback!!

I died from a gunshot at 14! then from a suicide at 47... Cool, quite dark idea for a game!:) I had some problems with recognizing the colors sometimes. Very interesting music! Congrats!

Nice game! It's a really innovative idea and I had a fun time- my favourite part was balancing the powerups with the death things. I also like that it fit the theme both mechanically and thematically! Not much to critique, good job!
