Past Live by Ysty

[raw]
made by Ysty for LD36 (COMPO)
​What if you could call the past? What would you tell them? What advice would you give them?

You find yourself with an ancient old phone, filled with a contact list of people in the past. When you call them, they ask your advice. Can you make the future better?

The game is played in loops, unlocking new contacts each time you play through. Keep at it, there is an end (and the game isn't terribly long).

Controlled with arrow keys.

Made with Unity
GIMP
Visual Studio
iFontMaker
Audacity

This is actually really creative and awesome! I spent a lot more time playing this than I thought I would at first. Great job!

I think I found a error:
K.Dara's sentence for getting a salad says she is getting a burger in the first part.
Great game, love the telephone idea

Very good take on the theme, Possibly one of the strangest games I have looked at so far.

Definitely an interesting idea! I like the different takes on the future when things were changed for better or worse.

I wish we could do that in real life, that's one of my fantasies.

This is such a cool idea. Honestly think it would do well ported for iOS or Android.
