The Human Evolution: 21st Century Edition

Do you ever wake up and wonder, “Is this all there is?” 

The answer is yes.

Now you can relive the pointless cycle of life, one increasingly heavy tap at a time.

Welcome to The Human Evolution: 21st Century Edition.

Start as a baby collecting pacifiers. Evolve into a kid chasing pokéballs. Struggle through adulthood grabbing cash to survive. End as an old man hoarding stocks and crypto, hoping to retire early at the ripe age of 50.

 

How to Play:

• Start the round by pressing the SPACE bar. 
• Press the UP arrow key to flap your way through life’s obstacles (pipes). 
• Collect items to evolve to the next life stage. 
• Life gets heavier, both figuratively and literally, as gravity increases with every level.
• Keep an eye on your lives in the top corners. 

Hit a pipe? You lose a life. Run out of cash? Back to babyhood you go.

Blow your chance at stocks? Retire at 80 and dedicate your body, life, and soul to the system.

 

Can you retire in peace?

Clear all stages and escape the loop, or get stuck endlessly restarting your miserable little life.

 

Why play it?

I mean, you already live this cycle every day, might as well laugh at it while you can.

Full disclosure: 

It’s not pretty. It’s not complex.

But it's a mildly depressing twist on flappy bird that might hit a little too close to home.

 

Embrace the mundane. Embrace the mediocre. Exactly like this game.

Enjoy. Or don’t. You’ll still wake up tomorrow to do it all again.
