same as a lot of people who have already commented i made an account just to say this game is easily the best game out of all the adult games i’ve seen / played, better than even the $50 ones on steam.
the character development, art, humor, horror blend perfectly together to tell a compelling story that will make you not want to stop playing. I salute you and look forward to the next update. will definitely sub on patreon
Good story Line and good character writing .. EXCEPT for that stupid brother.. he plays as dumb as dumb can be. .. Sorry, love everything else about the game but him.
Hope to see more to come and maybe some improvements on him. Take Care
Out of curiosity, will there be visual interaction between the MC and his child(ren) in the Endings (the Ending?) where they are relevant due to the MC's decisions, or will they be mentioned purely in written form? Or is that still largely a surprise or up in the air?
Also, Stabby Mike, the hero we didn't know we needed but definitely do. Always where you least expect him, like socks. And always with a hilarious escalation in tow to help the player. He is the real hero of this game.
Also, I have to say that I really like Jasmine's development, beause in hindsight it makes sense when you have her story in mind. Likewise, I'm a little concerned about Judie, but since there are no other options there and the path isn't closed, I don't think there's an overly bad turn for her, even if she does have a propensity for getting into trouble, as I'm sure two deceased villains would agree.
And even though I feel 0.9 is a bit weaker than the other updates and I don't know why, it's just a gut feeling, this update is still on a very high level (definitely above average here in terms of quality, quantity and humor). I'm definitely looking forward to the finale and will definitely keep an eye on your follow-up.
It's great game ma dude you did a great job bravo give yourself some pat in the back for a great work you created. I love the jokes it gets me all the time, I love the scenes and character designs Iris is my favorite. The plot is awesome and at some points I tend to cover the my eyes because I thought there's going to be a jumpscare😂😂 but fortunately not. This game is just wow great game. I'll stay tune for the next update keep it up man.
Made my account just to say - Thank You. That's an amazing game, I laughed my ass off with that Stabbin' Mike, thank you again and keep the good work up)
I am beyond speechless, how is this game not on top of the recommended list? I only found it after months of playing other VN games and my, oh my. The flow of the story is super smooth and easy to digest, the story being simple but deep. The creepy atmosphere is spot on, humor scenes kept me laughing for moments and this visual novel is literally more than perfection in my heart. Wish I could support but not really in the correct position atm, but hope comments help and keep the great stuff up!!!
Just made an account to make a comment, the game is REALLY REALLY good. The scripts and dialogue are GOOD. The lighting what I love the game and also the the design. May I ask what benefits does the patreon have?
Thank you very much!! You can get access to exclusive images, wallpapers, polls, early access, character cards, your name in the credits, etc. depending on the tier you subscribe. You can check them out here if you're interested ^^ https://www.patreon.com/onceinalifetime
Wow I see I'm not the only one with this idea. I too just created an acct so I could say what an amazing game/story you've started. Cant wait for all the updates. I hope their is a lot more story to come. Thanks and great work
Same, I just made an acc to praise this game . If only i don't have a tight budget(hs working student) I'd really really like to donate just so you can continue your work. 1000/100 would fucking recommend.
Why is it so quiet? Is there no music in the game? I had to add my own it was really bad playing it with no music. Just glad I have over 500mb of other Visual Novel music I can use! I know there is music in your rpy archive (my bad,) so maybe it is because I have just stared it, (Just got the key from Carla,) but even so. The quietness is killing me!
Yeah, there's not much music at the beginning of the game, I'm trying to improve the early sections of the game a bit every update. I recommend playing the second half of the game with its own music though! It gets much better :P
OK, sorry for the confusion, but wouldn't playing the second half of the game be a little pointless before you play the first? Honestly, I am not being rude or anything, but how does that work exactly? And, having my own backing tracks is fine for me for now. Anyway, the only thing I am not really like very much though (and it is just MY personal preference,) is that there are too many "school" questions, for me. But, hey, I know some people love that. BUT I am really enjoying the game so far though. Just getting to the party. Thank you again for the reply.
Yeah, you obviously have to play the first half of the game first, I meant that the music and sounds get better as the game progresses, since I've learned a lot and improved too :)
I just had to say THANKS! I have only just started it and the intro was amazing! Loving the humour! And, I live very near Birmingham too *and not the one in Alabama!) SO I am guessing this game is made in the U.K? With proper spelling like favoUr and not favor and coloUr not color. Thanks again!
Hey it's cool man. I am really enjoying your effort so far. It's really great. BTW, we say MUM here not mom and mummy not momma, to. If you want to make it authentic, kind of! lol. Thanks again.
Jesus this game was fantastic. I was iffy at first about this game because I wasn't too impressed by the models but I played through the entire thing in basically one sitting because I was so into the story, which I have to say is a first for me for a porn game. You did a really good job of setting up the proper atmosphere for scenes and some of the creepier scenes were VERY unnerving. The funnier scenes had me smiling the whole way through and I definitely laughed out loud at some of the jokes, and yet everything together felt cohesive and tonally appropriate for their scenes. Over time I actually came around to liking how the models looked, especially in motion too. The characters' dialogues being as charming and enjoyable as they were definitely helped too.
I don't know what else to say, I was so in awe of how enjoyable it was to play through this game I had to come back here to leave a comment about it. Fucking fantastic job dude, can't wait to see what your future endeavours hold.
I just made an account to say that I'm a huge fan of your game, ever since I first played it I'm hooked. I love the design of the characters, the lovestory, the comedy,... keep up the good work! Can't wait till 0.10!
I'm a python programmer (still in college) and u've inspired me to make an H game. It will never be as good as this game tho but I'm gonna try to make the best out of it.
I just finished playing it and what can I say? It's fucking amazing! Great job dude! I can't wait for 0.10, I bet it'll be awesome. Also, are you a full time game developer or are you just doing this as a fun project? Either way, you're killing it!
What a game... That twist and all the amazingly lewd shit... Game of the year! (I took the path of Judie[what a hottie] along with the teacher [gorgeous] and Aiko [f*** ya]). Great story line, amazing sex annimations (but my game kept crashing cuz of them) and I just can't wait to play 0.10!!! Great job Caribdis!!! Thanks for the amazing content! Gonna take another path for Lauren and hopefully iris at the same time.( It's like pokemon... Gotta f*** them all)
👍👍👍👍😃😃😃🤩🤩
Btw I literally created an account just to show my appreciation and love for this game! I also found out there's a walkthrough so gonna check that out.
Judie is my fav character btw. She's just so adorable and shy but brave and dirty when it gets to "that" point😏. For real tho great job on the characters personality and figure.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I just finished the game and waiting patiently for the next update. The story was totally incredible, full of plot twists. And also, i love the intensity of the ending! Damn that plot was something else from you!!!!(it almost drive me crazy with the storytelling despite this game got such lewd stuff lol) Keep up the great work :))
The Gamcore version is unofficial, so I can't upload the game there myself, I'd do it if I could, sorry. Try asking the Gamcore's admins to upload to the new version!
Originally I started this game and was just going through it but then I decided to look at how the paths were doing with all the characters and I noticed that I lost the story paths for Judie and Carla, I noticed if super early so I figured I'd start over and follow the walkthrough and holy shit I'm glad I did. First off amazing story with some really good twists and the characters are amazing, and secondly the animations are spectacular. I cannot wait for the next update.
if someone is one the fence about playing the game or not you should and I absolutely recommend using the walkthrough so you can experience ever thing in the game
So i was having a hard time on all my recent choices but then i found the walkthrough guide or something, i started a new a game and it became so much F'ing better dude thanks for the guides rlly helps... My new favorite H game now.. good job dude, hopefully there's bunch of more updates to come i loved it
I’ve been playing the game on gamcore but was wondering if there was any other way to play on mobile so I can play v.09? P.s probably the best mobile game I’ve ever played
Just created an account just to say that you're real good ! The mix of humor, feelings, sex, development, plot, etc is very well designed ! Keep up the good work !
The best visual novel i've ever played, fantastic story, beautiful charter, i really liked all the references, easter eggs and the humorism. When will the 0.10 come out? I can't wait

Mmm I'm not sure yet (about the children) Probably not, but maybe there's some visual reference to it in the final renders of the game 👶
Whats the computer password?
It's one of the following: 140, 215, 280, 370, 595, 655, 710, 770, 940

No release date yet sorry, you can check the progress bar on Discord or Patreon!
Is there a way to beat Tom in the number guessing game at Jasmine's party ?
If you still remember the bodyguard at the entrance, look at his hands in the mini game ps:srry for bad grammar ksks
Yeah, as Acesey said, you have to befriend the guard at the gates, then he tells you the numbers with his hands (2,5,6)
Is the game ended? Or needs still of updates?
There's still 1 more big update to finish it and some epilogue scenes, but there's already a good ammount of content!
Why is it so quiet? Is there no music in the game? I had to add my own it was really bad playing it with no music. Just glad I have over 500mb of other Visual Novel music I can use! I know there is music in your rpy archive (my bad,) so maybe it is because I have just stared it, (Just got the key from Carla,) but even so. The quietness is killing me!

LOL, that's what I thought you meant and I can believe that! The more and I progressing, the better I am loving this! Thank you again!
Such an amazing game. Had a blast with all of it! joy, love, drama, interesting characters, super amazing!
I'm glad to hear that Playan, thanks!
An absolute masterpiece! The pinnacle of every 3d visual novels. The comedy is unparalleled. There was not a time where I wasn't laughing.
Quick question tho, how many updates are yet to come. Maybe you can give us a rough estimation Caribdis-sama?
Looking forward to your growth as a developer and also as a man of culture. May your efforts be fruitful.
Thank you very much!I love the nickname haha
The main story will end with the next update, 0.10.
After that, I'll release a few epilogue H-scenes before giving the game the status of "completed".
Also, after 0.10, I'll start a new game: new story, new girls, but same style and same humor! 😁
HAHA gotta love my boi Jack slaying thots..
And new game too?! ヽ(｡◕o◕｡)ﾉ. Sweet, can't wait to laugh my ass off again (✯ᴗ✯)
I just had to say THANKS! I have only just started it and the intro was amazing! Loving the humour! And, I live very near Birmingham too *and not the one in Alabama!) SO I am guessing this game is made in the U.K? With proper spelling like favoUr and not favor and coloUr not color. Thanks again!
Hey Yuri!
I'm not British, but I decided to set the game there because I thought it was cool 😄( sorry not to have a better story😂)
Hey it's cool man. I am really enjoying your effort so far. It's really great. BTW, we say MUM here not mom and mummy not momma, to. If you want to make it authentic, kind of! lol. Thanks again.

215 is the computer password for anyone stuck
Can someone give me a link to a wall through?
You can download it in the downloads section
I just made an account to say that I'm a huge fan of your game, ever since I first played it I'm hooked. I love the design of the characters, the lovestory, the comedy,... keep up the good work! Can't wait till 0.10!
Thanks buddy! 😍😍😍😍

Best of luck with it!!

There's none
thanks
I just finished playing it and what can I say? It's fucking amazing! Great job dude! I can't wait for 0.10, I bet it'll be awesome. Also, are you a full time game developer or are you just doing this as a fun project? Either way, you're killing it!
Thank you very much! 😍
I was able to go full-time a few weeks ago thanks to the support I received, so yeah, I can say this is my job now 😋
That's great to hear! You deserve the support! And one day if you finish this game, do you plan on making similar or maybe different types of games?
Oh yeah, I have my next game already planned 🤩
I posted some info about it on Patreon recently, but I won't start working on it until 0.10 is finished
Ooo, nice! I wish you the best!
Good luck buddy! Can't wait to see what you can come up with!😄
What a game... That twist and all the amazingly lewd shit... Game of the year! (I took the path of Judie[what a hottie] along with the teacher [gorgeous] and Aiko [f*** ya]).

I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Already!! Hehe i was so excited abt the story so, my bad xD. And please, make the very end of this game more epic!!! 🤧🤧🤧
Haha I'll try 🤩
whens 0.9 going to be on websites like gamecore? im not playing the downloaded version because i dont know what it means by extracting the files
The Gamcore version is unofficial, so I can't upload the game there myself, I'd do it if I could, sorry.
Try asking the Gamcore's admins to upload to the new version!
ok what about extracting files? i dont know what its supposed to do
Just click "extract here", it will create a folder, and an application (OnceinaLifetime.exe) that you can run to play the game
um it doesnt say extract here, it says extract all. its the application, right?
That should work too, yes
Originally I started this game and was just going through it but then I decided to look at how the paths were doing with all the characters and I noticed that I lost the story paths for Judie and Carla, I noticed if super early so I figured I'd start over and follow the walkthrough and holy shit I'm glad I did. First off amazing story with some really good twists and the characters are amazing, and secondly the animations are spectacular. I cannot wait for the next update.
if someone is one the fence about playing the game or not you should and I absolutely recommend using the walkthrough so you can experience ever thing in the game
Thank you very much! 🧡
Are there any downsides to the compressed version vs. the normal one for the APK? Just wanna know
Lower image quality in the compressed one
okay, thank you!
So i was having a hard time on all my recent choices but then i found the walkthrough guide or something, i started a new a game and it became so much F'ing better dude thanks for the guides rlly helps... My new favorite H game now.. good job dude, hopefully there's bunch of more updates to come i loved it
Thank you!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I'll change it 👌
please make the protagonist look better he is so ugly
At a certain point he gets a new haircut and he improves considerably! 🤣
it seems to be a default model from the engine or something because its the same damn ugly guy in all of these renpy games
the character models are honey select. you don't use ren'py to make the models lol, ren'py is just used for the VN side of things.
I’ve been playing the game on gamcore but was wondering if there was any other way to play on mobile so I can play v.09? P.s probably the best mobile game I’ve ever played
Hi Jovert! If you download the Android version (APK) you can play it on mobile!
oh damn I’ve been playing on ios I can’t run apk
Just created an account just to say that you're real good ! The mix of humor, feelings, sex, development, plot, etc is very well designed ! Keep up the good work !
Thank you handker! 😀
Yoooo this game is gooood
I have a question tho.How do i finish lauren path???
Do you know where you lost the path?
Try downloading the walkthrough and looking (Ctrl+F) for "Lauren"!
Im on andriod :(
where can i download the walkthrough?
Well,i lost it at the hotel when you will choose to go inside or not.
But when i choosed go inside, i lost the path. I tried the other one but its still the same.
Thx for replying :P
You can find it in "downloads" in this same page!
The best visual novel i've ever played, fantastic story, beautiful charter, i really liked all the references, easter eggs and the humorism. When will the 0.10 come out? I can't wait
Thank you! There's no date yet, but it's on the way :P
is Judie's cosplay party gonna be added in the next two updtes caribdis? Its my most anticipated final addition tbh.
Yeah, probably as a epilogue scene
