Time To Die
NOTE: This game runs best when downloaded on Mac or Windows PC. Some graphical issues may occur when playing the embedded version.
Congrats! You've lived a long, fulfilling life and now it's time to die and give that body to another deserving soul.
Time To Die is a short visual novel about choosing your legacy.
In the future, medicine becomes so advanced that human bodies don't die or even deteriorate, so the only sensible way to keep the world in balance is to cycle souls in and out of the same bodies.
Interview three different souls and decide which one you want to "take over" after you're gone. What you say affects whether or not your souls are compatible -- which can lead to either catastrophic failure or incredible success. No pressure!

This was a really unique idea for a story! The conversations with each soul felt very natural and unique. On my first playthrough, Juno convinced me not to choose any one soul over another, so the AI chose Nia (my compatibility with her was nine if I'm remembering correctly, it was her best ending), and I reincarnated into the Spiderman toy.
Thanks for the hard work you put into this game, I really enjoyed it. Best of luck on your future projects, and Merry Christmas!
Thank you so much for playing and for the kind words!
