I'm going to be honest, only the first choice of each day interested me. The idea of ending needless suffering because of age is a hard pill to swallow, but it's a necessary evil.
The other two choices felt way too distant, or at the very least an intentional period piece.
Great concept and you've done a really good job bringing it to life (/death) within the Nokia limitations. Kinda had a bit of a Papers Please feel to it, which is cool. Could definitely see this one being fleshed out more outside of the jam / maybe at a higher resolution. Good work!
Thank you!
Papers Please was definitely my biggest inspiration for the story. And I think I might make it into a bigger project, the dialog at the end of the game hinted at it, "There's an opening for a full time reaper job".
Really different game compared with the others I have played so far, nice narrative and making the decisions resolve to an outcome is really satisfying. Amazing work!
Great game, especially when taking into account the limitations !
MOTHER !
Curious concept! I love games where "choices matter" and this one definitely had some gravity to it!
Come on the old man was gonna die anyways lol. I really liked the grim reaper sprite. I noticed some of the text was hard to read.
Super creative. The text kinda hurt my eyes a little bit.
I really love the idea behind this game but I think it's missing the screen resolution to really make it awesome.
Really well done with the limitations though!
Creative game
Man, I was doing my job and got called a psycho, no one respects service-jobs. Honestly expected better from Satan lol.
The movement speed was bit slow and I'd have loved some more sounds, but still great work. Fun experience, gonna try it out with different choices.
Very nice story and personal vibe as the game mocks you. :D And it makes you think too. I think you should have been able to visit all options before making the decision. The font was a little hard to read also. Anyway I liked it, good job!
Thank you!
I basically spent half of the first day searching for a font that looks somewhat readable in low resolution, this was the best I could find :)
I accidentally chose life for the supreme leader on my first go, which gave me a good laugh. I played this through several times to see the differences, was fun!
I did the same, oops!
