Hi!

I'm Caribdis and I'm creating Once in a Lifetime, a choice-based visual novel made in Ren'py with tons of romance, mystery, humor, and much more!

_____________________________________________


Plot

You live in Mistbury, an apparently normal town where you live an apparently normal life with your family. However, you'll soon discover that this place hides some deep dark secrets and things can heat up very fast...

From infiltrating into a prison to exploring mysterious mansions and traveling to the other side of the world: embark on an adventure of conspiracies, meeting bizarre characters, living unique experiences, seducing gorgeous girls and, if there's time, saving the world.

If Astaroth seizes power, it will be the end for all of us.
Only you can stop him.

Esse est deus.

Ngl i played the game for the story and it did not dissapoint and the dildo guy sences were funny as fuck i enjoyed the game very much.had to replay it to get the ending where you take everyone on the trip for the endin

I just get shot after the trivia quiz and dont know what to do to survive, is there any way??? Please let me know.

SPOILERS

You must win the gameshow, check the official walkthrough among the game downloads.

(+1)

thank you , i thought i had to go much further back, replayed the whole game up until that point and still got shot. Nevermind, this will help, thanks again.

Это самая лучшая порно игра в которую я играл. Давно я не получал такого наслаждения и веселья от игр. Хотя при первом прохождении я действовал так как действовал бы в реальности и почти не получил никаких секс сцен( 

is it completed or nah?

It's completed

I just finished the game and it is the best adult game I've ever played. Thank you for the creator of this; I love your work, bro- hopefully, you make more games like this. I really love the story, and I'm going to play the Eternum, too. Again, I love your games, bro! Please continue the good work😊

My favorite joke it the first ride in the minibus when you got the music and start driving and then the scene changes.

(+1)

*slow zoom in*   *invert colors*  "will to live -37"    this joke made me laugh harder than most jokes, a porn game made me laugh harder than normal.

it truly is an insanely funny game, compared to most other porn games

(+1)

creator of this game, I want to thank you so much for this game. this is the best (porn) the game I played, I didn’t even want to watch any scenes. I was more immersed in the plot. man this is the best game!

Im stuck in the hospital trying to get past the locked door, i cant remember the color order for the numbers. The numbers are 38024 but what's the order?

You get a hint for that, to see it again try to type in a combination. There's an official walkthrough among the game downloads, it can help you out if you need.

Hi there Caribdis!

First off, your games are amazing. Both this and Eternum are two of my favourites! I just finished playing this one with my partner (2nd time for me!) and I have a BURNING question to ask you!

So the final scene at the hotel.....the TV disappears and the MC comments on it being gone........WHERE DID IT GO? I need to know!

Seriously though, stellar work and much appreciation for it!

Spanish please! I liked the plot, but some things I didn't understand, the game has a lot of potential.

(+1)(-1)

bro this game is finished, 1.0 is the last update 

Are this game and Eternum in the same universe??? 2 of my favourites being connected is goated af

Since Stabby Mike is elected President in Eternum, the answer is yes. I don't think any cross-over is planned though.

Man, absolutely LOVED this game! Full stars, no question. Was putting the end off for some time (stopping just before the threesome with Judie and Lauren) because I didn't want the game to end. Finally saw it through today and, honestly, this may be one of the best endings to a video game, period. (The harem ending, that is.)


Really looking forward to Eternum, once I've gotten over the bittersweet feeling of finishing this. The porn was sexy, the hospital and mansion were actually scary and the humor was always on point. You've set my expectations high!

Absolute highlight where the characters, of course. I can tell I'm gonna miss the girls. And Mike!

(+1)

Thank you so much!!

I hope you like Eternum!

How do I get the teacher to go with me? I'm trying A 100% but the teacher won't come

Follow the official walkthrough! Most people grab the book at the mansion and lose Rebecca's path because  of it.

I am getiing a message saying this title is hosted on an incompatible third party website where do i go to find it

If you're using the itch client you'll have to paste the link into your browser and download the game there.

Deleted 12 days ago

so try to go to the links that i find try to download them but they fail everytime i try 

You ARE downloading via browser, right? The Mediafire one is the one I find to be the most reliable.

Yes but i am useing the one for my phone instead 

Oh, the Android version is hosted on itch itself. Itch should be reliable as well, if it doesn't work you can try downloading with a different browser.

Loved the game. The ending had me dropping tears!

Thank you!

(+2)

Mike man, you really do be the best bro out there. I wish we could have spent more time together, as u always had my back, though I wish I could say the same for me...

girls were fine aswell, i guess.

Will there be a sequel to this specific story? I played Eternum expecting it to be a continuation of this. It was not, though still good.

What can I say, its masterpiece.

Finished it in 1 day, but played it the whole fucking day.

I got emotional, i was happy, laughing, sad, worried and didnt want to do any bad decision. 

I just love it like its just beautiful story game with the best humor i have ever seen and it has some sexual content that makes the game even better.

I would give the game 10/10 but the characters (especially mike, i love him so much, his humor is the best and I was laughing my ass off whenever he showed up)

This game is fucking 420/10. 

cant wait to play Eternum.

***SPOILER***

got the best ending and almost cried.

I dont know how mike could be the best character, he saved me every fucking time and in the end became a fucking president or something.

(+1)

Thank you very much :D

(+1)

na man, this was fuckin perfect, i almost cried with mike. 5 of 5 man, this history is awesome

Thanks!!

为什么我的游戏进行到一个特定的剧情会直接闪退呢😩

Loved it, nice work there!

It was perfect, the character, the plot, the music, everything. As Mike said, that kind of love, you only get it once in a lifetime. Thanks for everything, Caribdis.

Thank you for playing!

Yo guys, is death in episode 0.6(before Japan) canon?

(+1)

I finally finished this game, it was amazing, the characters were perfect. The humor was just funny as hell. Playing this game was such an amazing experience, I can't wait to play eternum, and see how the story develops.  this game deserver a 10/10. Thank you

(+1)

Thank you!

I hope you like Eternum!

In the school part with Lauren (extremely early on in the game) her skirt is inside of her thigh. Nitpicking, I know, but still breaks the immersion (not that there’s really any for me I was literally skipping to the sex parts)

Also all of the skirts have no posing applied to them making every single skirt clip into the characters legs.

(+8)

If you're just looking for a quick dopamine hit, good old internet porn will do the job better than speeding through this game. This game makes a great effort to build likable characters that you will care about. If you invest the time, the erotic scenes will have a different feel to them compared to regular porn. And it's all tied together with a great story and lots of humor! At no point did I feel bored when I played through it.

I'd say that this game is not what you're looking for right now. But if one day you crave something more meaningful, then this game won't disappoint you!

(+5)(-1)

Mate if you here looking for quick fap NSFW games are not for you try using adult videos if that dont help buy yourself a dildo and fuk yourself

(+3)(-2)

I was just reporting a rendering error.

(-11)

Judging by the file size of this game’s zip alone I’m assuming this is another one of your porn games that has 2% porn and 98% someone needs to hire you for something that isn’t a porn game.

this is not a game that prioritizes sex, if you play and understand the story in the game, you will understand, maybe the sex in this game is just a bonus so you don't get bored

Hello guys. Ive been enjoying the game so far but i always seem to lost Laurens path after the massage i even did the right order on the massage and i even checked if i made any mistakes before and i didnt find anything. Is it possible i missed something or i didnt have enough hearts(her love for me)? 

You need at least 8 affection points ("hearts") with Lauren. You can take a look at the official walkthrough to see where you missed opportunities with her. If you want to avoid backtracking in the future, I recommend you this mod to alleviate your fomo.

(+1)

Thanks. Ive decided to ignore her route.  Might try this mod next time i replay. 

I did as the walkthrough said. Back>Legs>Back>Lower back>Legs>A>P and i got declined or i lost the path at the P part. You may be right i didnt have enough affection points or heart thanks ill try to fix it

(+1)

hello I am loving the game! However for some reason even though I am following the walk through to a T At the  train scene with jasmine I noticed right after I lost her path! I don’t wanna reload hours of play can you tell me what I did wrong? I followed walk through and had all scenes with her 

You have to go all the way to the last cart before meeting with her

(1 edit)

thanks! The walk through was misleading as it didn’t specify to go to last cart

Hey guys, I'm trying to download the game, but when I open a game, it always closed and says it can't find the "start" label

Sounds like your game files are corrupted or incomplete. Try redownloading the game, maybe with another browser or another mirror.

I've finished the game and it was best game ever! The ending was the best! I got harem ending tho. The story was 10/10

I've finished the game which by the way is incredible but I always end up losing the Rebecca path at the wedding. Does anyone have any ideas?

The priest must be on your side, therefore you must not grab the book at the mansion.

(+1)

Thank you very much!!!

(+1)

Thanks! I was wondering this too! but when i load the save, i end up taking the book regardless of the option i choose. Am I missing something?

(1 edit)

There's an important difference between physically grabbing the book and mysteriously getting the book.

Don't get me wrong, I don't think this decision and its consequences make sense at all. But that's how it works.

I'm currently playing this game for the first time - however I can't seem to keep Carla's path there - I selected the go shirtless option as a comment suggested - however when I go to the doctors, the same issue still happens and i lose the path - any ideas? The walkthrough that I've seen hasn't really helped to show where I've went 

Okay, for Carla you need at least 4 affection points on that day and you must've seen her masturbating with a dildo beforehand. The dildo scene is 4 days prior, right after Jasmine finds you in the locker rooms. To get it, you need 2 affection points with Carla at that time and remain quiet when you come back home.

You're about 30% done with the game but if you're considering to start fresh, I'd recommend you a mod I made which mitigates these kind of headaches.

Okay, I seen another comment which directed me to go back and it changed so it’s all sorted for me! Thank you for the reply :)

Holy crap! This was a game and a half. Loved it from start to finish. Caribdis please keep making games.

 

e

Amazing game, with a perfect amount of humor and storyline.  Genuinely made me laugh out loud at times.

Honestly, i cant even put in words how good this game is. One of if not the most underrated VN ever. I honestly teared up at the end. Story is as gorgeous as the girls, the writing is phenomenal and the sounds and music used really makes it a funny and cozy experience. Amazing work. Cant wait for Eternum to be fully released. I really seriously doubt, youll find a VN thats even close to this good. Thank you Caribdis. Truly.

(1 edit)

Absolutely loved this game! Played it after Eternum, and its story is just as good. It has a good variety of characters, and the writing is engaging. Like Eternum, the lewd scenes seem earned and make since with the story, like you have to work towards each moment instead of hooking up with everyone in one chapter. Great job on such a good game. Can't wait for Eternum to be done and to see what you might do next. Keep it up!

(2 edits)

Caribdis, I really like your work. Although there's less adult content, the storyline is very engaging. The right amount of humor also adds a lot of charm to the game. However, it's worth mentioning that these models might be a bit outdated. Will we have the chance to see Easter eggs or new models of Judy or Lauren in Eternum
