With a first episode that's completely free, Muffles' Life Sentence is a really weird dark comedy 2D RPG where have to swap your face and it's well worth a look. Here you've been sent to prison, where their doctors do clearly pretty terrible things to you depending on your crimes.

MLS Bug Patch 3-10-25

Hello to all the gamers,

Global Fixes
  • The plugin related to reading unique fonts is fixed! Text should now appear correctly in general, and there should be no crashes related to reading things like posters. PLEASE reach out with any related issues.
  • A bunch of text edits (grammar, highlighting, etc.)
Episode 2
  • You now have more of a window to use the Episode 2 skip with Poncho (up to to talking to Shatter for 1st time)
  • E2 stashes achievement was off by 4 (was 7, now 11)
  • Fixed a softlock where you teleport 5 steps to the left in the West desert if you’ve entered Your Mind from the mines

Okay! Hopefully Bossy hasn't broken anything. Turns out making RPGs is... complicated.

Report your issues, keep Dee in your hearts, and thank you all for your patience!

MLS Bug Patch E1/E2 3-9-25

Hello to all the gamers,

  1. New section for Known Issues and Fixes added to the discord:
  2. A plugin related to reading unique fonts is sometimes causing crashes. I am reverting that plugin for now, meaning sometimes this text won’t appear right, but it should stop the crashes.
  3. Quitting the game can sometimes leave an nwjs tab running, leading to CPU issues (you can see it in your task manager). Working on finding a fix. Until then, try exiting via Steam instead of alt+F4 or canceling the window. This may be related.

[h2]Patch Notes:[/h2]
  • Fixed achievement sprites (unlocked/locked were switched)
Episode 1
  • Fixed issue with 1st Shatter cutscene that caused framerate to drop
  • Fixed rare issue in the Mess Hall where you could get the Surge Key early
Episode 2
  • Made it more overt you need to talk to Murf as Constant to get a Canteen.
  • Fixed a cutscene softlock before the Odessa showdown from an NPC blocking the saloon door
  • Fixed issue where the E1 Pigheaded Priest sermon was playing in E2
  • If you use the demo code to skip to E2, you now get the Jar of Humors to give to Onyore

I appreciate everyone’s patience as I work through these issues. Hope to have results soon~

[h2]In other news…[/h2]

Bossy is taking the itch.io store page and Steam demo offline.

Demo: It’s confusing to have Episode 1 free AND have a demo, especially since saves don’t carry over. Hopefully this will not cause issues for those of with progress on the demo- if it does, please reach out and I might be able to get you a save with similar progress!

Itch.io page: Itch.io not allowing for DLC and the chaos of frequent patching makes maintaining this page not make a ton of sense. Based on analytics, not very many people play MLS on itch, but this was still a hard decision to make.



Thank you all so much for joining me on this weird journey~

Muffles Life Sentence 1.0 Launch!!! (+ a small patch)

Hello to all the gamers,

We did it. It's happening. Wow. I kind of can't believe it.

Muffles' Life Sentence Episode 1 AND the Episode 2 DLC are out on Steam RIGHT NOW!

Also- a small patch:
- Adjusted HP/attack DMG on some Episode 1 enemies (mostly in the tunnels)

Bossy's only getting started. There's a lot of Muffles left to make, and knowing that you are all along for the ride... well it's a big part of why he's making it in the first place.

Thank you.
