just finished it and I have to say that this game is super amazing 10/10 , I'll regret if I don't play this once in a lifetime. I can't wait to play more games from you , the prologue of Eternum make me really excited. so keep it uppp!
This visual novel is honestly great - I’ve always been attracted to the concept of VN’s but have been repeatedly dissapointed by static and/or censored s*x scenes. The animation is great and the facial expression of the characters are very amusing and sexy (looking at you Lauren). I was definitely not there for the story but many relationships between the characters (not the whole filler Astaroth demon thingy) were really well written to be atleast a little believable and enjoyable to follow - scenes like Rebecca’s wedding were endearing to say the least. The girls are very varied in their personalities and while I would have liked a bit more jealousy (that can be worked out, of course) nothing felt forced. The humour is great and I never would have expected myself to chuckle repeatedly at a p*rn VN. Overall great work - if I was not on a tight student budget I would become a Patron, because a Carla/Rebecca threesome scene and a end-of-game harem scene with 4+ girls are definitely lacking from this absolutely fantastic gallery.
Thanks for the escape from real life, and am looking forward to Eternum’s final build.
I'm not gonna lie. This is one of the best games I've played adult or not. The story was fantastic. There were some moments where I think I actually pissed myself laughing. There were lots of touching moments and memorable characters, "Mike" 😄. There was also some great horror moments. You can really tell the love and attention you put into the game. Thank you. I'll be be subscribing to patreon and I really cannot wait for your next game.
This game is a masterpiece. I liked this game from the first minutes. Thank you for your excellent work,bro ;). And I want to ask you a 1 question:Will we met in a "Eternum" characters from "Once in a lifetime"?
I just finished the game! And i am pretty new to the Visual Novel Genre. This was definitely a trip, kudos to you the creator and the writing is superb (So many best girls~) I was truly immersed in the story and never really had a dull moment, was pretty much hooked for hours! Especially the references I caught on to them :)
Also would like to ask since before playing this one I tried “Eternum” first. So I was wondering if there would be cameo or maybe a nod to “OIAF” within Eternum (?). Really made an account just to ask this haha.
The best game in this genera I have played till date. Thank you Caribdis for creating such wonderful game and releasing it for free. I will donate for your next game when it is complete. I laughed after a long time by playing this game especially for the dildo guy in train and shop.
Hope Eternum will be more enjoyable than this, then I will be a fan of you.
This game is f-ing awesome. All the scenes are great, although I don't really like the low-poly background, I still enjoy this game. I didn't finish it yet, but damn it's good! Lewd scenes are very hot, and some of the situations are hilarious. I almost died laughing at the yakuza meeting. I just want to thank you for this game, I'll make sure to donate you some money, as soon as I have some =) Would really like to see this game on Steam!
Just finished this like 5 mins ago and holy shit... It was absolutely fucking amazing XD. I got this at first for just something to jerk off to but after about a half hour in I realized I was actually interested in the story and the characters and now that its over I feel like I need more! I'm really glad I gave this a shot it was phenomenal. Great work, Cant wait to start Eternum!
This game is simply amazing. I've never had so much fun playing an adult VN. Some times I wanna put my dick away and just enjoy the hilarity of some of the dialogue. The second I got the "Will to live -37"-scene (or whatever number it was), I started laughing my ass off. Great experience. 10/10
One of my favourite parts was the game show dialogue and the polygraph test on Carla. Both girls going: "If they only knew I'd be dead!" and the MC going: "I'm fucking dead."
ok so. I played the 0.1 version of Eternum, and I downloaded this one as soon as I saw you had also made it. The quality of both of your games are absolutely next level. The sheer amount of content is mind blowing!
Both of your games make me want to try my hand at making my own..
The girls can get pregnant if you choose YES and cum inside, which will affect some dialogues and a few renders in the late game. You won't miss any content in any case.
Hey caribdis, i know you're busy developing your new game Eternum and i know u said that this Once in a Lifetime game of yours was already finished. I just want to know if there will be more future update on this game like it says on the end cause i've already finished the story in all ways possible (i tried all the different endings) like a month ago, i love it so much but still want more so i was hoping that there will be more future update on this one, i know you're currently occupied by developing eternum and i'm not rushing you, you can take as much time as you need and i'll be waiting patiently, and i hope you continue to develop eternum as well cause i'm also waiting for that game's update i'm just really hooked by your games you're so good at writing stories so i'm looking forward for eternum's update and this game's update as well, that's why i want to know if you'll still be having an update on this one even if you already finished the story. So will there be or are you planning for more future updates for Once in a Lifetime?
I'm not ruling anything out, for for now I'll keep working on Eternum yeah, I wouldn't want to update OiaLt if I don't feel like doing so, because it would worsen the game >_<
Hey man, i have to admit i just downloaded the game for the sex scenes like many others i guess lol. But damn i'd never thought the story would catch me that hard. I think you mentioned it was your first game? However it was such an amazing experience and im totally checking out Ethernum aswell.
Huge respect for creating this one! The Story was amazing and the jokes within it hits exaclty my humor!
Already finnished it lol. I started it right after commenting here and i love it so far! Reminds me alot of Sao, cant wait for an update. I just subscribed to your patreon aswell!
... I cannot put into words how wonderful this great work turned out to be, it is just perfect, wonderful, beautiful, etc. I really thank you for allowing us to play this great game, after finishing this game I felt a great emptiness because this game really caught a great and deep affection and it gave me a bit of pity to know that it was over 😅😅
heroines captivate you enormously, I really fell in love without a doubt ♥️♥️
The only thing that I would like to improve or add, would be that each heroine had her own separate route from the harem ending since if you finish the harem ending first and then go through the other ending choosing a single heroine you will realize that it is exactly the same when harem end, only the other heroines are eliminated at the end of the scene and voila
and a question, what is the name of the song that plays during the harem ending?? 👉👈
sad, the google drive link isn't working because too much traffic and nopy has apparently gone out of business forever as of today, and mega wants me to subscribe or they'll artificially throttle my download into the ground and make it take 96 hours. shame, because this looks amazing.
I have a feeling I'm gonna enjoy this game since I'm a few minutes in. I play Vindi a lot and was surprised of Miri's Serpent Shock outfit in Judie's cosplay test in this game. UPD: okay, I'm enjoying the memes in this more
I just reached the public baths. You are getting mad props review for the addon of Xue Hua Piao Piao. I keep wheezing at the funny parts as I progress. Oh man there's so much in store until I get to the end
I can't wait to see the next update of Once In a LifeTime and Eternum thankyou for making all the game you make and when you gonna update Once In a LifeTime and Eternum?
I loved playing through Once in a Lifetime. Played through it a few times to check all the paths before I noticed the back button lol. I had one issue though, I followed the walkthrough to the T when I completed the game this last time and I can never finish all the paths. Some paths say that I am still following them, a couple are 37-39/40, one is 24/25, etc. Any advice? The gallery is full too so idk what I'm doing wrong :(
Will definitely play through Eternum in the next couple of weeks!
If the gallery is full, you completed the game 100%! Some paths say 39/40 or 24/25 because in some choices you have to choose between 2 girls (like following Lauren's or Judie's plan at the village with Mike, for example), but no worries, those points are not required to finish with all the girls! I hope you enjoy Eternum too!
I figured it all out. I messed 2 things up. The prison and the train. This game is amazing. Like using a minor game mechanic to make a joke. I died at the "will to live" scene. I tip my hat to whoever came up with that.
i have played this game and to tell you the truth......
wooow man this is awesome!! you can't find a game like this anywhere!! the story! the choices! whatever you choose you will get a different line on story. i have played this wonderful game three time just to make it to the happy harem ending! and see i have done it!! well maan thanks for this great jop!! i hope you can make another wonderful games like this!
i have a question i have unlocked all the galleries but in the end six ones. the down left one i can't seems to unlock it. how to unlock??
Thank you very much!!! 🧡🧡🧡 If I'm not wrong, it's the Aiko+Lauren scene. You need to be in both of her paths and to use the amnesia spray in Fat Jack earlier in the game (You should use it with both Tom and Jack)
ooh i see i just use it in tom to now. well then it seems to be my fourth replay. i will enjoy it for the 4 time. wow. lucky me if this game is boring i wouldn’t replay it. but this one!! heh that's worth a 10th time playing. tell me when you make a new update. although it seems to be ending?? then tell me when you make a new game. nice work man!!
Hiromi's reaction to your 5 star review was surprisingly wholesome, I never expected one of these games to make me happy cry and then laugh at how invested I am with characters like that did right now, so much so that I made an account just to praise this, Hiromi best character!!! awesome game keep it up.

i love your work i played a while ago, did you already finish the main story?
Yes sir, it's complete.
Be sure to check my new game out after you play too ^^
This game is a masterpiece. I liked this game from the first minutes. Thank you for your excellent work,bro ;). And I want to ask you a 1 question:Will we met in a "Eternum" characters from "Once in a lifetime"?
Thanks!
In the form of cameos and references, it's possible yes ^^
I just finished the game! And i am pretty new to the Visual Novel Genre.

I cannot download all the OS version, It says too many download recently. Got any link?
You mean MAC?

And I don't know about Esse est Deus, I'll think of something xD
I am having trouble downloading the apk need help.
What's the problem?
uhhh wtf was that ending???? i just got the worst ending possible lol, guess i have to replay it
Download the walkthrough if you need help to get the good ending!
This game is f-ing awesome. All the scenes are great, although I don't really like the low-poly background, I still enjoy this game. I didn't finish it yet, but damn it's good!

Please make MORE like this after Eternum ( which is amazing too dayum)
That's the plan 😁😁
XDDDDDD
This game is simply amazing. I've never had so much fun playing an adult VN. Some times I wanna put my dick away and just enjoy the hilarity of some of the dialogue. The second I got the "Will to live -37"-scene (or whatever number it was), I started laughing my ass off. Great experience. 10/10

Good humour!
Haha yeah I noticed that too. I was like "Hmmm shit this might get awkward"
ok so. I played the 0.1 version of Eternum, and I downloaded this one as soon as I saw you had also made it. The quality of both of your games are absolutely next level. The sheer amount of content is mind blowing!
Both of your games make me want to try my hand at making my own..
Thank you very much, magic! 😍
Best of luck if you start your own game ^^
Such a great game.
9/10
But It needed more music in certain scenes.
Thanks!
And yeah, I agree with the music thing. That's something I improved in my new game!
Just finished the game and fucking bravo. Really really well done. I'm blown away. Thank you so much for making this for all of us.
Thank you for playing <3
Very Love the Game for sure if this game already ended, hoping for the Season 2 XD
Thank you! Maybe some day xD
What changes if at the begin I choose yes or no to the question "do you want pregnancy?".
The girls can get pregnant if you choose YES and cum inside, which will affect some dialogues and a few renders in the late game.
You won't miss any content in any case.

Thank you so much!! 😍😍
No worries at all, i appreciate the content!

Bro get back to the story a little, don't take the grimoire back at the mansion so that the priest will help u
Thanks... i play 4 times from the start but couldn't find what is wrong. This game is realy cool.. And going to download the next one also....
Happy to help man...

... I cannot put into words how wonderful this great work turned out to be, it is just perfect, wonderful, beautiful, etc. I really thank you for allowing us to play this great game, after finishing this game I felt a great emptiness because this game really caught a great and deep affection and it gave me a bit of pity to know that it was over 😅😅

sad, the google drive link isn't working because too much traffic and nopy has apparently gone out of business forever as of today, and mega wants me to subscribe or they'll artificially throttle my download into the ground and make it take 96 hours. shame, because this looks amazing.
I added another link again, check it out
https://gofile.io/d/6FDXsF
At this rate I'll run out of file hosting websites 😅😅😆
I have a feeling I'm gonna enjoy this game since I'm a few minutes in.
I play Vindi a lot and was surprised of Miri's Serpent Shock outfit in Judie's cosplay test in this game.
UPD: okay, I'm enjoying the memes in this more
I hope you like it!
I just reached the public baths. You are getting mad props review for the addon of Xue Hua Piao Piao. I keep wheezing at the funny parts as I progress. Oh man there's so much in store until I get to the end
Just a heads-up:
I attempted to download the PC version of the game via Mega, but once the file completed downloading, my PC froze after I had activated the install.
Couldn't download via Google Drive or NOPY either.
I'm disappointed, because I downloaded/installed Eternum with no issues whatsoever...
I had to use external links since itch.io doesn't allow me to upload the files directly because they're too big.
I added a new link, try it!
https://gofile.io/d/6FDXsF
I can't wait to see the next update of Once In a LifeTime and Eternum thankyou for making all the game you make
and when you gonna update Once In a LifeTime and Eternum?
Thank you! Glad you liked them both!
Man, I'm gonna miss you Stabby Mike...
Here's to hoping you're playing Eternum in Aruba somewhere.
Hahaha I'm sure he is 🙏
I loved playing through Once in a Lifetime. Played through it a few times to check all the paths before I noticed the back button lol. I had one issue though, I followed the walkthrough to the T when I completed the game this last time and I can never finish all the paths. Some paths say that I am still following them, a couple are 37-39/40, one is 24/25, etc. Any advice? The gallery is full too so idk what I'm doing wrong :(
Will definitely play through Eternum in the next couple of weeks!
If the gallery is full, you completed the game 100%! Some paths say 39/40 or 24/25 because in some choices you have to choose between 2 girls (like following Lauren's or Judie's plan at the village with Mike, for example), but no worries, those points are not required to finish with all the girls!
I hope you enjoy Eternum too!
I can't seem to unlock the last gallery scene and I got the best ending with all possible points ??
Download the walkthrough to see if you missed anything!
Liked eternum, and I'm gonna try this one :3
It was my first game so you'll notice how I wasn't as experienced, especially at the beginning. I hope you enjoy it despite that, though ^^
Gotta wait to download it, mega doesn't allow me to download more than 4gb! :) but yeah, I Love it!
i just finished the game and man i have to say that was one hell of a trip i will check our your new game within the hour.
Thanks! I hope you like Eternum too
Two questions. First, is it possible to end with all 7? I keep losing Jasmine and idk where. Second, how do i get multiple girls on the plane?
It is possible, There's a harem ending
I figured it all out. I messed 2 things up. The prison and the train. This game is amazing. Like using a minor game mechanic to make a joke. I died at the "will to live" scene. I tip my hat to whoever came up with that.
Thank you very much!
And yeah, you can end with all 7, I'm glad you figured how to do it ^^
I should be thanking you! I look forward to playing your other game when it's complete!
i have played this game and to tell you the truth......
wooow man this is awesome!! you can't find a game like this anywhere!! the story! the choices! whatever you choose you will get a different line on story. i have played this wonderful game three time just to make it to the happy harem ending! and see i have done it!! well maan thanks for this great jop!! i hope you can make another wonderful games like this!
i have a question i have unlocked all the galleries but in the end six ones. the down left one i can't seems to unlock it. how to unlock??
Thank you very much!!! 🧡🧡🧡
If I'm not wrong, it's the Aiko+Lauren scene. You need to be in both of her paths and to use the amnesia spray in Fat Jack earlier in the game (You should use it with both Tom and Jack)
ooh i see i just use it in tom to now. well then it seems to be my fourth replay. i will enjoy it for the 4 time. wow. lucky me if this game is boring i wouldn’t replay it. but this one!! heh that's worth a 10th time playing. tell me when you make a new update. although it seems to be ending?? then tell me when you make a new game. nice work man!!
Haha I'm glad you like it!!
I already published the first version of my new game!

Hiromi's reaction to your 5 star review was surprisingly wholesome, I never expected one of these games to make me happy cry and then laugh at how invested I am with characters like that did right now, so much so that I made an account just to praise this, Hiromi best character!!! awesome game keep it up.
Thank you very much Hellfire!
