<p>I play more than my share of flash games, most of which are only okay.  Occasionally, there&#8217;ll be one that&#8217;s actually original, rarer yet, one that&#8217;s clever.  Last year, <a href="http://jmtb02.com/">John Cooney</a> (JMBT02 Studios) released <a href="http://www.kongregate.com/games/ArmorGames/achievement-unlocked">Achievement Unlocked</a>, a commentary on the trend of creating dubious &#8220;achievements&#8221; in games.  (Hell, even /. <a href="http://news.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/03/31/1610228">got into the act</a>.)  Which, judging by the comments on <a href="http://kongregate .com">Kongregate</a>, sadly, I believe flew over the heads of the majority of the players.</p>
<p>Now <a href="http://www.raitendo.com/">Raitendo</a> has released <a href="http://www.kongregate.com/games/raitendo/you-only-live-once">You Only Live Once</a>.  A game that lives, up to it&#8217;s title, and unsurprisingly,  has pissed off the majority of the Kongregation.</p>
