Oh man, I really liked your game - the style, the sound design, everything. I mean it's short and sweet, just how it should be. Although, maybe you should've added more levels or something. I believe our games are very similar in mood and theme - stealing from someone to prolong your life. https://ldj.am/$287038
Your game is one of the most fun games made for this jam that I've seen.

Very nice game. I love how the audio and walking speed depend on your age meter.

Weird game, strange concept. Very funny, both in gameplay and in humor.

Fun game, I didn't manage to finish it (I think?). I tried to reach the gate wight when the clock was indicating the red arrow, but didn't quite make it. The theme is great, the premise is quite funny. Well done!

Fun game! I wasn't able to finish, but I did get to suck the lives out of several people!

Really fun and silly. I like how the game speeds up as you suck up more life from people. Good submission!

I love this! Once I figured out that stealing life force makes you move faster, it became a fun & intense struggle to navigate the environment. The art is so lovely and charming -- I particularly adore the moody lighting, and the bloom VFX on the Avatars of Death. The concept/story is hilarious and awesome, I really like what you did with the theme.

A few points of criticism:

- I wish there was a hotkey to restart the game quickly, like with a hotkey or a menu item. When I was first figuring out how to play, I would often know that my doom was inevitable, but I had to wait 5-6 seconds before I could try again. Somewhat annoying.
- I prefer to use arrow keys for movement, I wish those also worked in addition to WASD
- The ending felt underwhelming. I was hoping for some funny hijinks with the protagonist and her husband.

Overall a very good entry. I had a great time with *On Death's Door*. Thanks for jamming!

Thanks for the game!

Do I have to eat all the children to unlock true ending?

fun idea lol, the concept made me laugh. I was going to say it was too slow until I realized you gained speed with each....dead child?
