About the Game

A one-minute Life Simulator!

[h3]Birth, Life, Death... in 60 seconds![/h3]

In Life's Too Short!, players will live a life in a minute. Aging every 12 seconds, players will roll, run, climb and clamour through the land of Minutia: a great big world full of opportunity, but not enough time to explore it all.

At the end of their life, players will die and receive a eulogy detailing their accomplishments…

And then they can live again. And again, and again…

[h3]...And again. [/h3]

Armed with the wisdom of the previous lifetime, players begin again, and may explore the world in a new, different way. With each playthrough, players may pick up hints and clues that they put into practice in the next, discovering more and more of the world with each generation.

Change The World!

The presidency might at first seem unattainable, far in the distance protected by a wall built by a previous administration to keep common folk out. But, through generations passing down wisdom and with lifetimes of play and experience, the path to the presidency might just reveal itself.

Or you could just make snails have LOADS of babies and then die in a hole. That's perfectly valid too!
