At the end of our lives, it is common to think that money will give us a little more time. But is this the right thing to do? Instead, we could try to do the hardest thing: help our similars and forget about greed.

Love the concept, It's hard with or without the money :') God bless you for putting a spawn next to each part, It wouldn't have been a good death otherwise :') great submission!

Good design loved the simplistic style

I liked the minimalistic design and the mechanic! It was difficult and required a good amount of focus to get the "good death." Overall solid entry!

Just because I collected one coin I was the bad guy :cry: But managed to get the good ending in the second try! The graphics are minimal but work. Would have been great if there was some sound when collection a coin or helping someone.

Maybe interesting for you: Here is a game with a similar (but different, it is less about greed) interpretation of the theme.

Simple, but pretty enjoyable gameplay -- the controls are just tight enough for difficult parts to be difficult and easy parts be easy!

It lacked a bit in direction and giving player the reason to do what they do. The morale was also a bit too upfront and oversimplified for my liking. Anyway nice job on finishing the game!

I was streaming my playthrough of your game, here's a recording in case you'd like to see it https://youtu.be/1s0mnrLO_ak
