Faith Eater Release + short guide

FaithEater
A browser game made in HTML5

Remind me never to make a game by myself in 36 hours especially when I'm sick lmaO. Unfortunately, I care about sleep too much to pull an all nighter so there's some things still wonky about this version + I barely had time to finish one single CG which feels illegal for a dating sim/amare type game (let's pretend this counts my grey romantic asexual self accidentally bled through hard core), but you know what it's fine. I literally just started feeling sick Friday night, it was like the universe tried to curse me for this jam but I'm stubborn and we're here!

Honestly, I want to take this idea and make it into a bigger game. I feel like I could write a whole saga about Whisper and them killing/romancing the Gods in this weird dark fantasy world. If anyone has played Blasphemous this is just the dating sim version of that if we're being honest.

Anyway, once the jam is over I might add some CGs for the endings and I'll definitely fix uh all of that. But at this point, is it really an Em Velox game jam entry if I didn't fuck up the GUI somehow? I think not. I'll keep my more rambling thoughts for the post-mortem but here's the guide:

End 1: Godhood

  • "I remain where I am"
  • "They saved us from the Gods"
  • "You're a liar"
  • "I refuse to give you offering"
  • "Bellum, God of War"

End 2: A Forced Oath

  • "I step forward"
  • "No, I'd say people are afraid."
  • "Just say what you want from me."
  • "I refuse to give you offering."
  • "Astrum, God of Distant Light."

End 3: To Choose Death

  • Pick either offering
  • "And I smash it to the ground."

End 4: A Divine Oath

  • Pick either offering
  • "And I raise it to my lips."
