I finished that game today, and I came here to give congrats to creator, DAMN, I'm had looked for a experience like that for a while.
I'm so sad that ended, but the choices I made, the scenes I lived, and the characters I meet in this game. Bro, I'm crying, this was my first experience with VN, I'm excited to play Eternum and have the same emotions that I had.
Thanks for this game, I loved so much, I could play game again and again.
Honestly one of the best VNs I've ever played for sure in my top 3. I just have 2 issues with it. The one that bothers me the most is pacing, it's a great game don't get me wrong but even without using skip you should be able to do the story in 7 hours max if you manage to try to keep every single possible path. I just wish there was another hour or two set for world building (Some spoilers ahead) like why is it always Asmosdus who turns traitor, (Or almost always) How are the 5 children picked, if they have major connections world wide now that the main villain is gone is there anyone else with similar powers as you that can challenge you, if you have the immortal soul will you also jump around between bodies after death or can you whittle it down till it eventually vanishes with each generation and so on. The only other issue I have with it is despite being set up to get multiple possible endings the humor just isn't as good on repeat like my first play through it was awesome a time or two I was in tears from laughing so hard but the next 2 or 3 times the same jokes might of got a chuckle but that's it, it's really good content the first time when it just completely shocks you and catches you off guard but when you expect it not as funny. Overall a really good VN I see the author decided on a new one first and I hope it's really good but I wished they would of expanded on this one or made a sequel first before moving to the next project.
This might be my favorite visual novel. Great, interesting story. Commedy is just brilliant. And every girl have something special about them, i especially like Lauren, Iris and Rebecca. Thank you for an amazing game. Looking forward for your future projects, already downloaded Eternum, hope someday there will be Once in a Lifetime 2.
I could make a very long review of everything I liked, but I will summarize by saying what is necessary: Play it, you will not regret it. P.d: Love SNK references
Hi there sir, Just finished the game and just wanna say that this game is one of the best game I ever played it made me cry when i thought stabby mike gonna die but it's good that he still alive and I also can't wait for eternium update, I hope you have a great day.
Question: Can anyone tell me how to bring the teacher (Sorry I forget the name) to the ending? I already restarted my load over and over almost from the beginning but I still can't find a way so that I can bring the teacher to the ending.
I understand that right now you are with Eternum, and that this will last a while. Will surely try it when the time comes.
But I can't deny that if one day you wanted to release a "Once in a lifetime 2", I would be very happy just like others.
Between the script and the characterization of the characters, you managed to make us all very fond of them.
I know the script is kind of open ended and doesn't have a sequel-enabling ending due to decision making, but there are several ways to go about that, either with everyone fine (ignoring other endings) or picking one of them all and choosing that as main, but I really want to continue seeing this universe with which I became very attached, congratulations for all your work, if I had some money to be able to support you I would, but I am from LATAM.
Hey, I have already played Eternum (waiting for more amazing content), but I wanted to ask you something. This is also your game, but is it finished? Eternum dissapointed me, because it ended quickly without reaching all character stories (its not finished,so its understandable) but what about this one? Thumbs up btw, I know I will enjoy this too.
Imagine, playing an unfinished game and being upset that it isnt finished. And for the record, there's plenty in the current release to justify partial beta releases. High quality art, animations and the story is very well done imo.
I literally only made an account on here to tell you how blown away I was by your game. As an nsfw game this is amazing but the story actually made me emotional when it ended truly a 10/10 masterpiece.
Simply phenomenal, this game has everything. Intrigue, romance, horror, humor, and of course, amazing sex scenes. All characters have their own lovable personality, and you're sure to find it hard to choose (but happy you don't have to!). The pacing is perfect; the story will have you on your toes, the humor will have you on the floor, and the sex will have you on your dick. Yes, I am aware that sounds weird but you see what I tried to do.
All props to Caribdis for making this amazing game, and continuing in this same fashion, but bigger and better (check out Eternum!)
What a twist MC dad is astaroth. too bad the game is finished I like game 5/5 star. I wished you would continue this a new adventure and more mystery to solve. And dude stabby mike is very funny and that Oliver scene the asprodastic one wtf who did he F the stone elephant or ruth hahaha. Nice game if I have a job and money I like to donate but I'm still a student and don't have a job. Keep it up sir/ma'am and your team who developed this game. For now I well try to download eternum I just have to delete some of the file and apps that I don't use anymore.
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 🤣
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. :)
Nah ma man i should be the one apologising this game is now in my top 10 games of all time even with the low amount of bgms present in the game and i have played over 200 games . I will definitely make a donation when i get my pay check this month.
Just a question. How long is eternum in 0.4 update and how long will the finished product be for some one who wants to follow all paths
Eternum 0.4 is easily 7-8 hours, depending on how fast you read/play.
After 0.5 release, it will already have more content than OiaLt, and I plan it to be much longer!
yeo i'd just like to second this guys opinion in that this game is otherworldly man, im talkin beyond the sex and allat, this game is just a good game with a awesome story, made a nigga cry frfr shits top tier and everyone should support and play it even if your not into VN's shits fantastic and could prolly win over Elden Ring for GOTY, and im not dick riding im just plain sayin facts my man, GG!!!!!
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!
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!
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!
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)
Finished it second time, with a walkthrough now, to see what I missed... And it's like half) Man, if ever one would ask you 'why the hell you are doing it', just answer 'cuz ppl love it'.
I'm trying to download this game for on my Android phone but the download quits after about 800mb. Every single time. I've tryed to download it on 2 On all of the devices the downloads were unsuccessful. Can someone help with this please?
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.
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.
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!

Thank you ❣️
Glad you liked it!
If you have trouble with that check out the walkthrough!
I'm sorry for bothering you but where exactly is the walkthrough? (I'm playing on Android if you need this information)
Thank you
You can find it in the downloads section as a pdf file
I understand that right now you are with Eternum, and that this will last a while. Will surely try it when the time comes.

As you say I’m focused on Eternum rn, I’ll probably start a new game after that!
Don’t worry about money, recommending the game and leaving a good review also helps! Thank you!
When will you make this game downloadable on the itch.io app
When itch.io allows me to upload files bigger than 5GB
Harem Hotel is more than 10 gb.Idk why you cant do the same.

I’m very glad you liked it! Thank you for playing!
Just found the Calypso reference on my third playthrough. I'm hoping we'll see a cameo of the OIALT protagonist in Eternum!
There will be some references yeah :)
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.

Thank you very much! Hope that situation gets better soon
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?
If you can't wait, check another game Eternum also by caribdis.
Not in my plans for now, I’m focused on Eternum, and after that, I’ll make a new game
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!
Thank you very much!!
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
Thank you so much!!
