WEJbA: We Exist Just to be Alive

An experimental mixed-media game about being bored

Appreciate your fleeting time on Earth by wasting it at a virtual mall with a surly bear. Talk to people. Play mini-games that never end. Contemplate the death of the American shopping mall. Spend a moment here, then go do something else. 

Ok, but what is it really?

WEJbA is a game about walking around a 3D mall filled with minigames and other points of interest. The game passes in real time, and a helpful in-game clock shows you how much time you have left. As I update the game, your available time will increase, as will the amount of stuff to see and do.

It's also a true mixed-media game; all the plushies you see in game are handmade by me, they're in my office right now! I take pictures from multiple angles and then extract the sprites from there. I also make all the 3D models, and either draw the textures myself or photobash them from open source imagery. I hope you enjoy, cause I had fun making it!!

This is Di, she's the main character of WEJbA. She's real! I could pick her up and toss her like a ball at any moment!!!

FEATURES

WEJbA will continue to grow as Di spends more time at the mall. (See content and pricing below.) The game currently contains:

• 2 minigames

• At least 3 characters to meet

• 1 open shop

• 3 unloackable skins

You can find this worm in the game, along with other, non-worm things.

Content and pricing

In what industry experts are sure to call "a stupid idea," I'm bringing live service gaming principles to the humble solo-dev indie game. Right now the game is 1 hour long and costs $1 USD. With every major update to WEJbA, I will add 1 hour of gameplay and raise the price by $1. That means the sooner you get it, the cheaper it'll be! Listen, Minecraft did it and no one yelled at them about it, so why not me?!

The game will stop updating once I get to 24 hours, so it will never cost more than $24. That's my ultimate goal, but who knows if I get that far, I make no promises! Enjoy what you get!!!
