Life Boat is an Oregon Trail-esque game where you must manage limited resources in an attempt to arrive at your destination alive. After a shipwreck you are stranded on a life boat with two strangers, both of whom have infections and need antibiotics to survive. Luckily you have antibiotics with you, but it may not be enough. You may need to choose one of the two to save, otherwise they both might die. Talk to your companions and make a decision on what to do, but decide fast, or else it might be too late.

The idea is good, the story also kinda of catched me, but could be better

Cool concept, I was tempted to eat all the food.

It started off good, but once I finished the conversation trees I got bored pretty quick.

Had to come back again. So simple, yet so good! More dialog will make it better than it currently is.

After talking to both of them I knew which one I would let die, but when it came to withholding supplies from them I just couldn't do it. I wish there was a little more going on in the boat than just having them sit there. Perhaps having them change based on their thirst,hunger,and sickness levels would be cool. I liked the initial dialog with the characters and would love to see more from each one as the game progresses. Nice job.

Nice take on the theme, some visual feedback on the states of the others would help a bit.

I like the idea very much and the sense of morality it gives. Well done!

Very nice idea. Developing this further, it can be very dramatic. :)

Interesting idea but dialogs with NPC are too short and there's no indicator for time progress. Music is good but a bit to repetitive and it's played too loud. Graphics and UI certainly could use some polish.
