Cool game. I like the graphics. I didn't quite understand how the "see evil spirits" thing helped me, as most of the time I couldn't avoid whatever it was he was doing.

Great concept and I'd like to see more from this.

Good idea for a game, but seeing the evil spirits is pretty pointless if you can't avoid it anyway

The game got really laggy towards the end, framerate dropped to about one or two. Possibly something to do with the GWT build?

Looks good! It would be great to see some finished scenario for this engine

@tigerbyte when there is an evil spirit it's invert the controls, up / down inverted.
Nice game like it, loved your interpretation of the theme, and love/money/health/events make me laugh.

@manabreak Yep, specially bad in Firefox. Didn't have time to fix it. Jar is OK, though.

Hi. Interesting idea, fun gameplay. Was spoilt a bit on Chrome/W8 machine by slowness - I expect that is down to Chrome rather than your game.

Awesome idea! You choose the paths! Check out the updated version of my game, the bugs spoilt it so now now its fixed.

Interresting game about choices in life. It gets a little boring after some minutes of play :\

That was one of more original entries, but got somewhat boring after a life. Also, I don't like how I don't have a definite goal in life, apparently. :<

I really enjoyed this entry. It is a great idea. You choose the path throught your life, you take decisions... It's amazing.

I played, and honestly, I ended up stuck in a situation where all I could get was "Go to Gym" or "Do Drugs", or "Find Lover" or "Call Ex", and it repeated for several looking iterations. I broke out of it, but it'd be nice if there were an extra option, like a neutral path at times.

Very interesting take on the theme. I couldn't quite make out how the demon mechanic worked; after I used it once it seems like I couldn't use it again..

Nice concept! I would like to see something more around it, but it is a good starting point. Keep at it!

A piece of art. Interesting how you show the possible life paths, and how they can lead to pointless death. I like the gameplay, and love the message. Well done!

Cool! The gameplay is very interesting. Took me a while to not die before my 18s hahahah... my best was live 90 years. Good graphics and nice concept about choices ;)

Great idea. The game is pretty good, and I liked the sound effects, but it gets a little repetitive after awhile. Maybe you could add more options, and have them affect the player's options in the future? Either than that good job!
