Moral of the story: work hard, buy discount food and everyone will starve to death.
Great stuff!
Good job.
Thank you for this.
I was digging it back when you released the first progress build, I spent ages as a block running around 'Booting' all the other blocks.
It has such a bleak story, but this game just makes me smile when I play it. That's what a game should do, well done!
My favorite so far !
there's just one mayor flaw how to get through life. after the second day running like a madman like all the other npc's i thought to myself: why work? i used more stamina to work and get food than just standing around doing nothing. so right now while i'm writing these lines jake reached day 9 already without doing/eating anything (and the others all died). if i could apply that to reallife, that would be awesome
1) make the other guys die harder
2) add a constraint that you HAVE to eat something at least every few days ^^
I love the little animation the guy does when you "do stuff".
Great job!
Good presentation and cheerfully cynical.
Overall a brilliant game.
Graphics and sound are awesome, and I love the idea. I'm just not sure it's fun, though.
It's hard to rate the fun, as I understand that the message would not work if it was more fun to play. It's some kind of anti-game not really meant to be fun.
Amazing concept, one of my favourites among this LD.
