Life Game is a prototype for a game we worked on around 2015. It was meant to have three parts – child, teen and adult – which would all play in sequence, each section involving different gameplay. (Adulthood will be uploaded separately later) The game can be wholly played with mouse.

Childhood

Play! Run! Roll! Play a microgame for each year of your childhood. As you get older, you'll eventually get to choose which games to play, and be given goals to aim for.

Teenage Years

In this action-adventure, you learn new spells at the Hero Academy, then explore the world during your summer breaks! Make friends, practise, and interact with creatures and objects around you to level up! Mix and match 5 different magic types, each with a distinct play style!

NOTE - The prototype runs from beginning to end, but some features mentioned are not implemented (such as final year exams). There may also be bugs!
