How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Kill Line

In a world that looks stable but has very little room for error,
a single mistake can trigger a chain reaction you can’t undo.

How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Kill Line is a darkly humorous roguelike card game that turns everyday survival pressure into numbers, systems, and clearly labeled risks.

You play as a regular office worker.
You have a job. You have bills. Everything seems fine—
until the system starts calculating.

The Kill Line

In this world, everyone has a Kill Line.
When your stats cross it, the game ends.

There are no surprise failures.
No hidden rules.
The system tells you exactly what’s at stake—and then waits for your decision.

You might choose to:

• Refuse the ambulance: block immediate damage, increase future risk

• Live in your car: avoid rent, accumulate long-term penalties

• Recycle resources: extract value from an already bad situation

These choices aren’t irrational.
They’re simply the options the system allows.

Core Features

• Roguelike Card Combat
  Build your deck and balance short-term safety against long-term collapse
  Every card clearly states its cost—just not when it will be paid

• Kill Line Mechanics
  As your stats approach the threshold, the game enters a high-risk state
  Face landlords, hospitals, employers—and their perfectly consistent logic

• Multiple Endings
  From graceful failure to full adaptation
  Some endings feel like losing, others feel like completing the process correctly

• Meta-Narrative Commentary
  A system voice guides you with dry observations and occasional fourth-wall breaks
  It doesn’t hate you—it just trusts the math

Tone & Style

• Dark humor without attacking the player

• Satire aimed at systems, not individuals

• Pixel / low-poly visuals

• MMO-style UI with health bars, warnings, and very honest thresholds

When a system has no margin for error,
the question isn’t whether you can win—
but whether you’ll keep pretending this isn’t the calculation screen.

Welcome to the Kill Line.
It’s been there the whole time.
