Wow, the concept for this one is really good! I need to set up spoilers for this one.
SPOILERS
This story was executed really well!An expected afterlife only to find out you’re not even dead, your memories and personality got sold to multiple servers, while on the current one you’re “GAINFULLY EMPLOYED” if you intend to keep existing.
Good lord, the psychological horror and existential dread from the general concept alone!
Then how you’re basically being taken advantage of all the time? Awful in a good way!
Then there’s the commands, the timer, the 3d scenes. Excellent vibes and mood.
At first I wasn’t sure what to do, then I saw the bear looking at the menu up-top and then thought “nooo, is it?”, then I press the command screen-like button and it does show up and the game continues, I’m like, “OH MY GOD! IT DOES!”
Excellent entry!
Overall, this is very high quality. Loved it!
its liike a hornier version of Amazon's "Upload" furry edition
Is there any routes now? Or am I too stupid to find them? Or they will appear in future updates?
Stay still sad I can't choose "no" in any dialogs, and character just repeats untill you click on "yes"
This is a completed project for a game jam. There are no plans for any continuation.
too complicated to start the VN so It deserves a very low score. If you want a good rating, just make it so simple that a simpleton can start it. I have no patience to figure that shit out.
oh Woah this is a cool concept
This is REALLY cool. I love the themes, a bit of SOMA, a bit of Upload, plus some 80s-90s retrofuture themes in there. The realtime token clock and the console are super unique too. Would love to see this keep going!
I really hope this one continues past the Game Jam! A bit dark and existential dread mixed in with humor that hits quite well and some themes that I'm rather fond of. I would definitely love to add this to my collection of games I regularly frequent!
I'd love if it got more of a sandbox feel where you can visit multiple worlds whenever and meet up with NPCs whenever you'd like to keep the AMOS pumping. Also bonus points if MC goes a bit more switch than top to cater to us bottom types!
Eu queria saber como passar dessa parte na versão Android
You can use the ‘help’ command in the console to find what commands are available to progress.
Spoilers for Console
After checking the ‘help’ command list, we see the ‘go’ and ‘worlds’ commands. Consulting the ‘worlds’ list, we see that world id ‘welcome007’ has open room. So you can type ‘go welcome007’ to go there.
im in a bind, I type that, spaces and no and it just loops me back to start
nvm got it
Copia isso aqui: go welcome007
E coloca lá, Caso você ainda não tenha conseguido.
