Flash End-of-Life, Ruffle Integration!
This game runs on Adobe Flash. Effective Jan. 2021, Adobe began blocking its flash player's use everywhere. Kongregate is now partnering with Ruffle to make some of our Flash content playable again. Please note: If you are using Ruffle, badges will not work normally. In order to earn a badge in a Flash game, you will need to complete the badge, then submit a screenshot (showing both proof of completion and your username) as a missing badge report using the report missing achievement option. Also, please join us in the Kongregate Discord for all the latest Kongregate news!

Description
A simple game designed to explore the simple idea of the infinite loops in our lives. In life, we often become 'stuck' in a seemingly endless cycle of activity and thought that is valueless to our being.
Sometimes, it can be hard to break free...
Music is done by the Koopa Komrades (http://www.jamendo.com/en/artist/Koopa_Komrades)
Developed using the Flixel framework.
How to Play
Instructions can be read from the main menu by pressing 'X'.
In short, it's like life: jump through hoops to collect money to support your health and wealth (score). But don't go too insane by just sticking to routine...try to break free!
MOVE - ARROW KEYS
JUMP - SPACE BAR
HINT - HOLD H

I like the song too. However, if its one thing we learned by playing games like "Bart vs the Space Mutants" is to never ever ever copy their controls. I agree with the Rhino, the message was pretty terrible. Games of this genre are exceptional when they are pulled off, but it's difficult to do. An excellent example of this is "Limbo" for the 360.

For some reason the person reminded me of a zombie.

So the message is: If you break free of routine you get really healthy again without eating money, then you have to mess around trying to get to a cliff, so you can jump off it.

Games with a message are great. But trite messages wrapped in something that's barely a game aren't.

I get it that you have to eat to live, but why does this dude have to eat dollars to live?
