Features:
Aging system - the core of the game
Achivements - earn achivements and gain multipliers
Ascension - your first reset layer
How to play:
Short:
Click "Start Life" to begin a new life, aging one second every real-life second. Your life span is shown in the 3rd line, with a minimum and maximum limit. Death occurs randomly, and you can choose to instantly end your life by pressing "End life"
Upon death, you receive life points, the main currency. Use them in the "Shop" menu with three options: "Aging speed," "Lifespan," and "Upgrades." Improve aging speed and lifespan in their respective tabs. The "Upgrades" tab offers special upgrades like autoaliver, which revives you with a cooldown, upgradable to decrease the cooldown.
In the "ascend" menu, gain ascension points (AP) to spend on a tree-like upgrade system. Currently, content is a bit limited. Check the descriptions to understand what each upgrade does.
sorry if the guide is long, i couldn't explain it shorter.
Long:
The first thing you will encounter is a button that says "Start Life". When pressing this button, you will start a new life. The default is you age 1 second every irl second. Your life span can be seen in the 3rd line. There is a minimum life span and a maximum. They are pretty self explanatory. You will die randomly inbetween. You can press the "End life" button which will kill you instantly.
When you die, you get life points which is the main currency in the game. You can spend them in the "Shop" menu by clicking on the button in the "Select a menu" screen. In the shop, you will be greeted by 3 buttons, "Aging speed", "Lifespan" and "Upgrades". You can upgrade aging speed in "Aging speed", same for lifespan. In the upgrades tab, you can buy special upgrades. Right now there is only one, autoaliver which will revive you automatically when you die with a cooldown which can be decreased by upgrades. You can use these upgrades to progress through the game.
Achivements are pretty self explanatory.
In the "ascend" menu you can ascend for ascension points, or ap. You can spend this ap on upgrades in a tree-like upgrade system. Right now there is not a lot of content. These upgrades can be bought multiple times with their cost scaling. You can see what an upgrade does by reading its description.
I hope you enjoy this fun little project that i made in my basement!!

Oh good, there's no autosave. Won't be playing this again.
i would maybe add a confirmation button for ascending or block ascension before you get any AP points because i just accidentally ascended without any AP points.
I suggest the game should tell the player about the lifepoint and ascension point formula, so the player could better strategize
i dont see a start life button?
developer response: read the description of the game, because of unity's zooming it gets cut off
It might just be me on the phone, but the end life button gives me no life points, even if I click it at 1min life
developer response: that's supposed to be the point, but I think I'll change it next update

My thoughts:
- achivements is spelled wrong, but that's a minor issue
- not sure why, but it seems like the WebGL player is centered vertically as well, meaning that with my small screen, I couldn't figure out where "Start life" was
- the ui/gameplay is kind of barebones at this point; it's not the largest issue, but maybe pick a different font and change it
- maybe don't use that word after you click on Start Life; it's quite sensitive (and while it doesn't affect me i feel like there's a better way of going about it)
- interesting concept, but the ui needs some major rework

is it theoretically possible to get 71 years of life span?
developer response: no, but will be in the future, I just thought ahead a bit
