This is a really short version of what I had imagined! I wanted to create a game showing how life can change in 10 seconds given a series of events and choices, but finally this looks like some kind of sad story :)
Anyway as always I had a great time working on this. I'll check the time-lapse, bu tI think I could only work 16-18 hours on this one...
Interesting concept, I like where this could go if you had more time.

Very well done on the mood and innovation of bringing me through the choices of life. I did not see any challenge, but liked the concept of choices and life being about those choices.
This game really had an interesting vibe. At it's core, it's just a simple basic platformer, but you added a nice spin with the real world analogy. I think it could have been even better with giving the player more choices that affect the game's outcome. The movement and jumping were a bit wonky, but overall, it was quite nice.
I like the sentiment. It feels a bit like Passage considering how quickly you live through a lifetime (or at least your avatar does). It did feel a bit awkward in that even though I couldn't go back to a younger age, I could go back to get all the gold and all the hearts, maybe that was on purpose to show that it doesn't really affect the outcome? But nice game, I especially enjoyed the end :)
