An inappropriate topic

I mentioned previously that I wanted to make a game based on Pascal's wager. I made it this evening's entertainment. I used Javascript/jQuery.


It includes:
  • 10 different absurd death scenarios
  • 9 different outcomes based on a randomised God
  • No happy endings
  • My terrible, terrible sense of humour
A live version is here (console will show God's characteristics):

My original code is here:

This was my original outline with all options and endings:

I don't think it needs a GUI. I did feel like I should add a few pictures, but I feel I've put enough effort into such a terrible sardonic item. I've been planning to create an app about complaints.

I grabbed the absurd deaths from:

Talk about GOD, death and hedonistic video game playing, after 39 hours, I have finally finished the tiny indie game that is The Binding of Isaac for the first time! As in I have managed to defeat Mum. I can now wear my Binding of Isaac t-shirt with pride, rather than with shame. When trying to replicate my winning run, they've added two additional dungeons and increased the ferocity of every single the boss.

;_;

Just imagine what I would have conquered had I spent those same hours reading about tax evasion.
