I like the Shiori portrait! Nice watercolor style coloring!

Clearly you ran out of time to flesh out the rest of the art, but I can see the potential for a unique looking story.

Choosing flash as your engine of choice is, once again, kinda unique. I would suggest giving Renpy a try if you're specifically into making visual novels!

That ending felt too sudden! I need to know what happens later! What are those cards I'm getting from the different dialogue events?

I got 2 different endings... or so I think, because after the dialogue ended the game stopped responding to my key presses.

Some improvement suggestions:

- Add some audio to set the tone of the scenes!

- A clear "Game over" screen with a "retry" option would be welcome.

I would love to see you remake your game in a modern game engine and in a more complete form! As I mentioned above, if you're going for a visual novel, Renpy has everything you need. If you want to mix in something else in your game, you can try Godot and use the Dialogic plugin for the dialogues and multiple option sections.

Good game!

Thanks for playing/reading ^__^

Glad you liked my take on a Biblically Accurate Shiori :D


Yes... I did run out of time... in fact it's only thanks to the grace period that it is somehow playable at all...

The reason why I choose Flash is because... I know how to use it. Many many years ago (more than a decade ago) I tried learning Renpy but it didn't click for me and for a jam I had to choose: learn something new or do what I can with what I already know.

I just played a VN developed on Renpy and it did have some pretty nifty features I would like to have (like saves, history, fast forward!) but I don't know if it'll have some of the features I've already developed for my little flash engine, hehe. Still, I'll check it out ^_^

Sorry about the confusion, I didn't get to make it clear when you got one of the special endings. But if you got stuck on a dialogue, chances are that you found the "awesome endings". Sorry about the bug, feel free to check the TXT for the complete rundown.

The cards are supposed to let you open new routes, and my initial idea was to get a super duper special ending when you got all the cards... my next iteration will only have the cards that are already implemented, but... I would love to do the FULL deck. What do you think? Is it worth it?

About your suggestions:

-Music is already supported so I'll add it on the next update ;D

-I'll be sure to add some way to track your progress and to be able to reset without having to close and open again the VN

While I'll be using Flash for the next iteration (I need to get it finished ASAP),  I'll check out your suggestions.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for taking your time to read and comment, means a lot to me ^_^
