Once in a Lifetime

What a wonderful game.
For new players: Enjoy the ride. The sound design in the beggining is not one of the best, but it keeps growing better and better. My recomendation is: take the harem route (for your first route, if you want to replay the other routes later, it's upon to you). All the seven girls (Rebecca, Carla, Aiko, Iris, Judie, Jasmine and Lauren) have different personalities, backgrounds and character designs that will make you love them a little bit more every dialogue. Their interactions is also great. For those who doesn't like jokes, this game has a few (and some that don't really hitted me well), but, when it wants to be taken serious... man, the game REALLY takes itself seriously. The mystery, the art composition, the music, everything blends so well that EVEN without the great sex scenes, the game would be a great VN.
Hint: Leave the WALKTHROUGH open. It's not necessary, but, for those who doesn't have that much time to play, it's a powerful tool to have in hands.

Opinion (with some spoilers): What a wonderful game (x2). I fapped in some great scenes, specially in those with Judie and Iris, feared by my life in the Magnus Mansion and the Hospital, and almost cried in the ending (harem route). This surprised me, because the only other AVN that i had played before is Aurelia, and as much as I love Aurelia for its fresh and really fun gameplay and characters, Once in a Lifetime expands what i thought to be a great adult game: great characters, great story, great art, great scene composition and great sex scenes. After this masterpiece, I will play Eternum for sure. Thank you for that fucking amazing game.

Aside from the hawt scenes, I thoroughly enjoyed the story overall! Some scenes are too funny, and I felt attached to characters like Stabby Mike for one 🤣

Supporting my man, Caribdis....here, take my moneh.

 Normally I don't like VN or mystery games and at the beginning of this game I was a bit disappointed of the humory part, but  after a while the story was really funny and I enjoyed this game till the end. 

@ Caribdis Just want you to know that you make some of the best games I have played in the last 25 years. Eternum's plot has become my favourite, I can't wait for the next update. :)

my first 3d h game and was one of the best h games I've ever played

I have been playing for about hour and a half now. So far there was no music besides main menu theme. is this normal?

I made an account just to say, this game was amazing. I have never really had interest in the "daz3d" type visual novels/games, but I kept seeing this recommended and I am not disappointed giving it a shot. Great game!

Does this game has NTR content? It would be cool so was just wondering

This game is amazing ! But I have a question, is Judie or other girls can get pregnancy ? I can't find the route for. 

I just wanted to say that I love You Man! This game made me laugh so much! I dont remember last time when I had so much fun playing game. Great Job and dont let anybody stop You! Im gonna follow Your Eternum project with great interest!

Haven't finished yet, but gotta say your comedic writing is amazing. Shits funny as fuck

Can I win the numbers game against tom?

finished the game today. Beautiful. I never thought an adult game could be so addictive. Excellent plot thanks to which I spent some very pleasant hours. Simply thank you!

How do you stay on Rebecca's path? After the wedding stuff, there's no way to stay on her path, I got her to 17/20, what am I doing wronf or what am I missing?

This is by far the best visual novel I have played. I am looking forward to playing Eternum next! I was wondering whether there was a soundtrack list somewhere. Absolutely great selection. 

Wow i'm stunned, the game is awesome ! I just started playing Eternum when i saw someone recommanding OiaLT and man i'm glad i tried it ! I see many comments saying the same thing but i guess i'll write one more.. 
I really enjoyed everything in the game, the plot and humor are great ! And we can see while playing how much effort you put into it, it's incerdible :D
I downloaded it for free to give it a try as I wasn't convinced (I'm not used to visual novels and never played any before) but i'll gladly pay for it now !
Also, I loved how you added some jokes in the background while we're talking to someone, it's really funny ^^
Can't wait to play Eternum when it reach 1.0 i'm sure it'll be even better !!

PS: Thanks for the Evangelion part, i didn't expect it at all but it hit me right in the feels :')

This games is one of the absolute best VN's I have ever played. One of the best stories In any game I have played for a long time. The quality of writing is just top tier. Found this game through Eternum after I saw the quality being produced by this dev. The game is touching and humorous at the same time. I genuinely believe this is the best Adult VN I have played so far (Though I already believe that Eternum will be even better!) All props to the dev for releasing this absolute treasure for free to the public! 

Well, I do like it. A lot. 

But god I had hard times on a big screen reading white text on bright background) It will be a great idea to always have some sort of hidable 'dark box' for the text to be displayed on)

Caribdis, this game was magically fantastic.  I didn't really know what to expect, I don't really play too many single player games, let alone visual novels like this.  I'm blown away, the story is great, the comedic timings are perfect, and I absolutely love the main characters (I'm looking at you Judie, Lauren, and Jasmine).  I wound up at the all girls ending and I think it nearly broke my heart it was over, but the ending renders were so happy and fantastic.  I'm stuck on this game and the female characters, I'll probably have to replay it a couple times, which I rarely, if ever, do with story games.  I wish you could do a small update for the story in this game at the same time as Eternum, looking forward to future releases for that as well.  Thank you so much for creating this game for us.

Just found the Calypso reference on my third playthrough. I'm hoping we'll see a cameo of the OIALT protagonist in Eternum!

I laughed with tears when I heared the song Yi Jian Mei (so called Xue Hua Piao Piao, Bei Feng Xiao Xiao, a meme appeared during corona time) during playing this game. Now while many countries have already lifted the corona rule, people in China still fight for basic living needs. You can not imagine how ridiculous the rule is there. Many living building's front door was locked from outside which is dangerous when there is a fire. I wish the government could do something positive to bring life to normal, not just locking down.

Love this game as well as Eternum. The story, graphics... Please keep the great work. Thank you so much.

Hi caribdis thank you for this wonderful game. I have one question is there going to be a 2nd part of this game?

Man this is the best game everything is perfect so can you please make 2nd part of this game and continue the storyline?

Holy f, the story caught me like crazy. After having played the current public Eternum build a while ago, I now “binged” this game from start to finish over 2 days and I was not disappointed.

Your stories, characters, decision trees (and H-scenes) are great!

Just played Eternum and absolutely loved it! Decided to play this game and I just have to say you are a creative genius, man I love your work

I wanted to ask anyone who knows, is it possible to reactivate a lost path? or when it's lost it's lost forever?

Damn i love your work man! Especially that Evangelion choice at the wedding as an Evangelion fan i thank you for putting that there

Maybe im dumb but how do I unlock that first scene in the gallery?

I should have done this a long time ago, but there’s no time like the present. I found Once in a Lifetime back in September 2020. I had played my fair share of AVN’s, and I thought that this one seemed promising. But once I actually played it, my whole view of AVN’s changed completely. With so many AVN's out there that just revolve around sex, Caribdis showed me that there are more promising things to look for in AVN’s. He takes all the greatest elements that a game (or even a movie) should have and combines them. A great story, beautiful characters with great personalities and rich character development, top-tier comedy, mystery and horror elements (my personal favorite), and even more! But at the same time, the adult scenes are as great as any I've seen in the best AVN’s I've played. Anyway, this is kind of my love letter to OiaLt. If you’re pondering whether you should play this game, don’t hesitate. Just download it already!

First Eternum, now this one. Your games are awesome. A great writer. I have no words, not anymore.

I never comment on anything but I had to make an account just for this. I just wanted to say this game made me go through a roller coaster of emotions, I loved the comedy in this game it made me laugh throughout the game play, the romance and the story line is just too good, I loved and enjoyed every single part of the game, from now on I'll be supporting you waiting for more content. Thanks a lot for making this game!

Great game, great story and great humor! Laure then best girl! Carla is a top tier MILF.

Edit: I lied, they're all best girl.

on the itch.io app it says that the game is ¨this title is hosted on an incompatible third party server¨ and it won't allow me to download it anyone know how to fix this problem?

This game is hilarious. I downloaded for the sex scenes but I finished it for the story and the jokes, they landed most of the time. 9/10

I see that you the creator of this game is active and I would like to ask if its okay to run this on an Amazon tablet?

Hey sorry for bothering you, but I finished the game completely and I got every scene in the gallery except the absolute last one. Any help regarding this would be appreciated

This game is just perfect for me👌,i hope i can donate you soon if have get paid,sorry for downloading for free

so im just wondering, which ending is the ''good ending''? ive got a bunch of different once but its hard to tell tbh

*******SPOILER******* *******SPOILER****** *******SPOILER*********** 

Just wondering if there is a way to not leave all the other girls behind after beating your dad, and only taking one of the girls with you on the plane?

One of the best adult games ive ever played, the story, the animation, the soundtracks EVERYTHING was so good 11/10 

(just wondering, whats the name of that one rock song you play in the minibus before departuring with all the girls?)
