I really liked the art style, and the atmosphere, I think great games could be accomplished using this monochrome style. But the other parts were a bit... lacking something.

There's a strange atmosphere in the game, i kinda like it. Black and white glowing looks great.

@tudvari I think I know what you mean. But, oh well, 48 hours are "only" 48 hours^^.

@syrapt0r Am I allowed to make a GIF out of it?

@raphael-maia Appreciate it.

@mia-devs THANK YOU. THIS MEANS A LOT TO ME: BUT WHY ARE WE SCREAMING?

@sebastien-bourgeois I tried really hard to make the game strange and mysterious. That's why the menu looks like a bios. But i eventually ran out of time to make really thick atmosphere.

Extremely innovative. Most interesting interpretation of the theme I've seen so far. _Your life_ is currency. Brilliant. The sound effects and visuals created a great atmosphere, although the walking sound got a bit annoying after a while.

love the onebit style. Reminds me of minit but its lacking in stuff to do. Its clear that most of the time spent was on atmosphere. It shows and really feels like theres something more hidden underneath. Makes me wonder.

I liked the one bit art style, and loved the sound of the waves in the background. It's easy to get lost in the command line if you don't read the instructions like I did the first time around. Once I read the instructions though, it was pretty straight forward. Great execution and interesting take on the theme. Nice work.

Wow! Great idea, reminded me little bit of Mimit. It was really fun to play and answer all kinds of questions. It got emontional at some point. Great job!

Quite unique idea, congrats on making it. It brings me back to the atari and DOS age.

Your take on the theme is very cool! I love the idea of revealing details about someone's life in order to continue in the game. I got to level 11 but I wish there was an ending that I could've reached maybe at 10. It's hard to find enough rabbits to tell secrets to. The art style is great though and I enjoyed playing it, great work!
