Greetings,

This game is a troll. If you don't think this is a troll, then you exactly got trolled from the game. Who is paying for this game ? The game creators are paying for this game.  Obviously not gamers, since they are getting this for free. This game was never meant to be played with straight face. We don't limit freedom of expression, rather we encourage expressions of all forms. 

Seems our troll worked, since you are so worked up about this game ;)

Thank you for playing this game ~ We will come up with more satire future as always!

Really loved it !!!

Yes, and that magic holds the secrets of the universe ;)

Yes! We had great voice actors!! Not everyone can follow up with these kind of crazy requests of voice actors. Plus, regarding visual novels, I was quite bored of just having "click and choose your story" setup. So we decided to spice things up ;)

It's the secret to the universe. SHH! Don't talk about it to anyone!!!

Would you like an RPG element to these type of stories in future ?

That was the whole point! The satire ;) The musician was generous enough to give their plethora of music they made over the years to use as the game's background music!

Ha! Ha! we had great voice actors who took my unusual requests! One of them were even ashamed of how stupid they sounded xD. I encouraged them saying "You made a good character! It will be a really funny game :)" Although we didn't had an official audio engineer I think it made out quite okay for a single day development.

Lol, not really but yes a bit of thirsting 

Yes, the jam submission criteria is that it should run on a browser. 

The game should be made you or your team and should playable in the browser.

The game should playable in browser and should be made by you or your team.

I brought the assets, however, it would had been better if the screen.rpy and gui.rpy would had been included in it ~

Could you please specify which images are AI generated ? Is it one in the welcome screen or the thumbnails of the load screen ?

Greetings,

Yes we don't have a comment section, we have a full on community section  to have a more open discussions.

We have checked the game builds again for the section you mentioned about the game. This error message issue occurs if you don't follow the download instructions given in the download page as in to extract the zip file with 7-zip software. Windows zip functionality is unable to extract all assets of the game.

There are a total of 5 main choices in the game along 3 additional choices at the end of each 5 main choices.

You are correct it is not a novel, it is visual novel.

This game is in prototype stage. So bugs will be there. 

Thank you for trying out free prototype of our game, and giving us your valuable feedback. 

If you want us to improve our game, feel free donate as it will help us to fund the game for better improvements.

Thank you!
Stay Blessed!

I was able to receive password reset email this morning. Thank you!

Greetings,

I am not able to get password reset email in my account. I am only able to log in to my account via Github login. I even changed my primary email address to check if its the email service provider issue, however it is not since the password reset email doesn't even come in other email service provider. I am working with development of lot games and I need to get this fixed.

Could anyone help me regarding this?

I even contacted support they gave me request number '25072' but that's it, no contact since then.

It's important that I am able to receive emails from itch so that I can activate 2FA eventually.

The file in download from the main store page has the complete story, however inclusion of voices is incomplete since its still beta, you can play from the browser too you know :)

Here is the latest version https://jjbeats99.itch.io/arias-choice

Awesome JJ, I didn't knew you would win a JAM so quick !! I am very happy :D

Apologies, we can't use machine translation or AI translation because the game  is in two of the JAMs that prohibits use of AI or machine learning algorithms. We will try to look for Chinese translators if there are any in our contact circle.

Don't worry, leave it to the developers if your program exceeds the layer limit :)

I have donated a nominal donation  while downloading it in hopes that this project can continue. I will donate every time I make a visual novel with it.

I have donated a nominal donation, while downloading it, in hopes that the project could still continue. I will donate every time I use it to make a Visual Novel

sad to hear you lost all your project files, by far this was the best projects I have ever seen. I agree using AI will ease the art development process!!!

sad to hear that you lost your project files, but I agree using AI can ease the process of making art. Keep up the good work!!

I have sent you the email regarding this, please check

Emailing you on behalf of JJBeats :)

This was really nice and cute game, kudos to the developer to make such a game single-handedly.  I really love this game, artwork and music and story.  This was really and amazing game.

oh, I did that already, the button just didn't worked.

Well, the game's finalize button doesn't work after character creation, so I can't say how the game was. It looks like a lot of work was done from whatever I saw till then.

I have downloaded the game, you know you could build for linux and android as well, I saw that you have worked a lot in the artwork. And the story is interesting. I can help you in porting the game into other platforms just drop me an email, I will help you for free of course because I like the story and artwork. A lot of dedication has went into this game.

Thank you for the assets, I have no don't know anything about artwork or managing psd files but I do know programming. This is quite a help. I am in the path to making my first visual novel with whatever artwork I get.
