And everything started to fall

 A game about life and it's unavoidable end , death and the things that could happen in between . A story told trough images . A pretentious attempt at making art trough play mechanics . Start as a baby and grow all the way into the grave gaining and loosing abilities as time passes you by .

Music by Heatex ( http://gamejolt.com/profile/heatex/224/ )

Download for high quality music and if you get a graphical glitch .

The game has 3 different versions because of graphical glitches on some machines :
Surface version : May not work properly on Vista and Windows 7 machines .
View Port version : May cause seams on the graphics on some monitors .
GM's native screen scaling version : Should work on all machines but will look blurry on fullscreen mode and will look to small on window mode .

  This is incredible! :) How you filled such a simple game with so much meaning is impressive; I'm astounded by just how many metaphors you've managed to fit into this game. Heat's soundtrack fits perfectly and plays a vital role in exhibiting the mood of the story. Great job, guys!

  the parralells between life as a human being on earth and your average platform game make for such a sweet gaming experience. I've been playing alexitron games since the Power and this is the most mature work to date!

  Loved the game play and music, the game was challenging enough to be fun but easy enough to experience it in entirety. Well done!

  Nice visuals and a very well conveyed message, but the damn thing was utterly unplayable at times... I just quit, too frustrating. But still, congratulations, it's worth playing for the story.

  Great job, I really like it, I think It is a little hard, like a lot... I had to try a lot to see the ending. Overall its a great work, keep on working hard. Maybe we could say the game is like passage, but I do not agree with this idea. Passage does not need any skills. In your game if your are not good at plateformer, well you wont go to far. In passage my parents can definitely play the game without ever experiencing failure. The experience in passage is more about what ever happens you will get old and die(one meaning). And everything started to fall have a lot of meaningful little things going around, although the game talks more about the contemporary life: where people don't have choices - you are stock with one line life like in your game (except for the adolescence part). Overall you did something great.
