There's souls that need judgement - that's your job. Which souls go to Heaven, and which go to Hell?

As a demon yourself, you do have a vested interest in sending some people to Hell - your boss has given you a quota - not that he ever tells you what that is. But don't you feel a little bad for some of these people?

You get to decide. But if you don't meet the quota, you'll regret it.

Nice game! I really like the concept of the game, being essentially the judge and executioner of the souls fates while having a clear bias towards reaching Hells Quota really makes you question your morality. I found myself constantly stretching my definition of 'unworthy life' and trying to interpret each characters answers in a way that would condemn them; to the point where I'm adamant one of them was a Mob Boss.

The art for this game is really nice; you did a great job creating this game within a week!
