About Life is a Roguelike
You will die. A lot.
Luckily, death is basically a free upgrade.
Welcome to Life is a Roguelike, a side-scrolling roguelike where every failed run makes you stronger, every piece of junk might become useful, and bad decisions are sometimes the best strategy.
DIE. GET STRONGER. TRY AGAIN.
Fight through bizarre stages, defeat ridiculous enemies, grab their loot, and keep pushing forward.
When you die, you don’t start from zero. Upgrade your stats, improve your gear, unlock new skills, and come back stronger for the next run.
Failure is progression.
BUILD IT WRONG. WIN ANYWAY.
Choose from different skills and upgrades to create your own build.
Stack damage. Become impossible to kill. Bet everything on one weird skill. Combine things that probably weren’t meant to work together.
If it works, it’s a strategy.
TRASH OR TREASURE?
Collect weapons, clothes, accessories, and plenty of suspicious junk along the way.
Equip the good stuff. Upgrade what you like. Dismantle what you don’t.
Or keep it.
It might become broken later.
EVERY RUN GETS WEIRDER
New loot. New skills. New combinations. New ways to make terrible decisions.
Fight. Loot. Upgrade. Die. Repeat.
Eventually, something has to work.
Die stronger. Loot dumber. Try again.

User reviews
Quirky.
At first I thought it looked stupid. But then the ads kept following me so I took the chance and installed it. The saying is true "Looks can be misleading". It's actually a pretty fun game so give it a shot.
