About the game

This press-your-luck game is all about waiting for just the right moment... How many "good things" will it take for someone to want to take the blame for inflicting a "bad thing" upon the world?  "Carbs no longer have calories." But is that good enough to want to take the blame for: "All blinking now makes random sound effects"? I think not... 

Wait too long and someone else might claim the victory of a series of delightful "good things" happening in the world. Or worse yet, the button might grow impatient and press itself, inflicting only the "bad things" instead. And the world will know that's your fault too!

Will You Press the Button?

Thank You!

A huge shout out to Panicked Lizard (https://panickedlizard.itch.io/)who came up with the overall idea for this game and helped with prompts, and Orion (https://jorion.itch.io) who helped with prompts too.  And to osLilith (https://www.instagram.com/oslilith/) for the hourglass art, and several great suggestions on tweaks to make the game better.

The Hyper 1 HOUR Game Jam

This game was created for the Hyper 1 HOUR Game Jam #56 (One Button). The original version was created in an hour, and we later added to it to make a fuller, more polished game.  I highly encourage you to check the jams out 🧡 They're every Friday at 6 pm Eastern, and Lýz livestreams them, including the theme reveal and playing entries after. She's super fun and encouraging and awesome!

You can check out our other Hyper 1 HOUR Creations (and games inspired by the jam) here. Along with a few below:
