25-30 minutes but some people have speedrunned the game in less than 7 minutes.

About:

Aquamortis is an extension of the Ludum Dare 56 game jam game I made. I felt that the idea had potential and decided to keep working on it. 

Patch Notes

Release Patch 2

• Improved the DPS of the tier 1 creatures (Snail & Killifish). The reason for this is numerous players complained that the first level is too long. I can't improve the performance any more than this because the Tier 2 creatures still need to be better value per dollar. I could decrease the minimum corpse size, but I can't lower it anymore without being unrealistic.

Release Patch 1

• Added a timer to the game which displays elapsed time for speedrunners. The timer never pauses, even during spokesman dialogue or in the contract menu, level screen, etc... Elapsed time is displayed on the End and Win screens.
• Fixed spelling and other minor mistakes in contract descriptions + spokesman dialogue
• Fixed bug where pressing space after sleeping for the day would cause a freeze
• Fixed bug where sleeping while the contract menu was open caused a freeze
• Added additional contract bio about insurance company CEO
