can you make it downloadable please
I remember this game. Such a classic.
I would say this game is way more than "that one game from 2010". This game was out during an "art games" wave on newgrounds, and I think this is one of the best of them. I find something about the way it is all put together to be very compelling, like there was something very personal at stake for this developer to make it like he did. The crude artstyle highlights how absurdly terrifying the plot is and makes me think we are partially viewing this from the perspective of the guy's daughter. The music and text appearing every day letting you know "every single living cell on earth will be dead" gives me shivers. And the permadeath is not just some tacked-on gimmick, it fits the terrifying tone of the whole thing perfectly. Overall excellent, and I hope this game is remembered for way more than plain nostalgia.
It's really been that long, huh.

okay but how
this game is awesom
Yeah, pretty awesome. Though, I wasn't able to save anyone...
I first played ONE CHANCE 2-3 years ago, but it seems that the version I tried had a bug which prevented the best possible outcome.
However, in this version, undertaking the exact same course of actions does lead to what seems to be the best possible outcome (of having at least 2 humans surviving beyond 6 days).
Another bug common to both versions is how the child may sometimes appear twice in the same scene, as if she suddenly has an identical twin.
By the way, the version hosted at your game website does not seem to work. It merely launches with a blank white screen, with music playing in the background.
I like turtles
same xD
