Wait! This game is beatiful
A beautiful game of a dark subject.
This was really hard for me. Both as a past suicidal person and as a gamer. I couldn't save anyone and that wasn't easy.
Thank you for drawing attention to this.
I have no words...I just recorded the prologue and it was amazing. The level of depth and emotion put into every conversation was truly astounding, I can't wait to experience the full game.
This is giving me Dean Lied Vibes, where a paranoid man works extra hard due to the fact that the person who killed his parents might just kill him, and loses himself in the process.
Wait, I just spoiled a Roblox Game.
There’s something lonely about this game. But that’s what makes it interesting
Wait! Life is Beautiful! - W!LIB! is an interactive psychological thriller about suicides with a touch of black humor. Playing the game is like watching a spine-tingling film or TV show where the viewer is immersed in the main character’s tense mental state.
HIS NAME IS WILL, AND THIS IS THE STORY OF HIS LIFE
The story revolves around a young man, an ordinary office clerk. He’s an everyman, not a hero or a wizard. As we watch him, we lose ourselves in his emotional state. He’s exhausted by the monotony of life and hounded by thoughts about the meaninglessness of existence.
To hell with it all! It's time for a change!
SUICIDE BRIDGE
Abandoning his monotonous and meaningless office job, Will tries to imbue his life with new meaning by saving people who have given up all hope of finding it themselves. Every night he goes to a bridge beloved by suicide victims, hoping to save as many lives as possible.
WAIT! LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL!
It isn't just the name of the game. The main character speaks this fateful phrase every time he tries to strike up a conversation with another visitor to the bridge. Every story is unique — you’ll have to learn to cope with unpredictable reactions. Just remember that you can't save everyone.
THE RIGHT TO DIE
While hoping to save as many lives as possible, Will encounters an unexpected opposing force: a group of “freedom of choice” activists led by a spiritual guru are actively campaigning for a person’s right to commit suicide. Will the main character be able to resist them?
MONEY CAN'T BUY HAPPINESS
You can't live on happiness alone! Having lost his regular income, Will has to borrow money from his parents. However, he isn't completely dependent on them because he occasionally manages to get “tips” from the grateful people he’s saved and their family members or bribes from those who want to rid themselves of an unexpected savior.
I'M JUST MINDING MY OWN BUSINESS, OFFICER
When it comes to mass deaths, anyone can become a suspect. Will has to explain himself to the police on more than one occasion. Why was he the last person to see these people alive before they committed suicide?
PSYCHEDELIC DREAMS
The psyche is a fragile thing. Needless to say, you can't talk to suicidal people every day without letting it get to you. Will eventually starts having psychedelic dreams that give rise to the sensation of an approaching mental breakdown and the protagonist’s fear of it.
WHERE WILL IT ALL END?
Like every interactive film, Wait! Life is Beautiful! has multiple endings. Some of them may seem like an obvious development of the narrative, but others will shock you and subvert your expectations. How will the story end? It’s all up to you.

"– May I take your order?"
Do you notice something strange in the store menu?
Small update for the coming month - and some news regarding DEMO!
For a game like Wait! Life is Beautiful! what may be seen as a glitch (like in this GIF) could actually be a representation of the main characters mind slowly having problems keeping up with reality.
Important Notice - In memory of those who have departed, and in aid of those who are close to the edge.
