"CardioCasino" is a small game about a slot machine tied to both your childhood and your heart. From a stressful home life to experiencing wealth throughout your life, your slots decide what you live through and what the physical consequences will be. Try your hand, meander through your various lives, and see where you end up.
roll 2 or more of a slot and you'll gain access to an interactive memory from your childhood, plus a memento.
maybe the mementos mean something; what would happen if you collected all 8?
music:"good night" by micco.
source code ishere.
based off of research examining how negative psychosocial factors in childhood can lead to higher risks of cardiovascular disease later in life.

Well, ain't that just sad... I've been feeling shitty lately and playing this just makes me reminisce about my childhood, it wasn't so great, if I could I'll change a million things about it, but I can't so I just need to live with it. Thank you for making this game, both you and the game are awesome <3
Stumbled on this randomly and glad I did! The story telling in this game is super amazing and really can make one think and wonder. Everything was metaphorical, open ended for interpretation and the music and art really went super well together! This was a super great game!
(Only realised that I had played Good Morning almost a year ago as I finished with this game! You have a really unique and great style!)
I thought like that for the longest time, but eventually i reached to the coonclusion that in the end it was never my responsaility if i gave my all to make things better. Even if the odds have always been by my side, i always remind myself that sometimes there are factors that weight more than my will to succed, and that is ok.
We all have to come to tearms with the uncertenty of our existence and the fact that pain is present whether we like it or not, form the best to the worst moments in life. So i might as well risk it now and live to the fullest while i still have time to live and the option to do as i please.
This...game is wonderful. I've had a horrible childhood, and dealt with many of the things shared here, maybe all of them. To see this shared is wonderful, you are a amazing game dev. Keep making these games, please. It's amazing to see stories shared, and you all are amazing people. Keep going everyone, and thank you for reading this.
