Life Goes On
Life Goes On: Done to Death is a comical puzzle platformer developed by Infinite Monkeys Entertainment Ltd. and published by Devolver Digital. The game was released for Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS in 2014, and for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in 2015.
In Life Goes On: Done to Death, players control a series of bumbling knights who must be sacrificed one by one in order to solve puzzles and progress through the game. The knights can be impaled on spikes, caught on sawblades, frozen into blocks of ice, and electrocuted, among other things. Their bodies can then be used to create platforms, open doors, and activate switches.
The game is set in a dark and macabre world, and the humor is often dark and satirical. The knights are portrayed as being incredibly stupid and incompetent, and their deaths are often gruesome and over-the-top. However, the game also has a surprisingly touching story about the importance of friendship and sacrifice.
Life Goes On: Done to Death was a critical and commercial success, with critics praising its unique gameplay, dark humor, and touching story. The game has been nominated for several awards, including the Independent Games Festival’s Seumas McNally Grand Prize.
