Meeting Aneidea
A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
Here is my first ever attempt at making a Visual Novel (VN). It was a personal challenge to see if I could make it through, using a low budget and Ren'py. The project still feels a bit rough around the edges, but I think I got rid of the major bugs.
The best part is that it's ABSOLUTELY FREE!
The main (and only) girl is kind of a half-human half spider kind of character. The story is a bit weird and dark and also very violent at times. I would say maybe 16+ as a rating? The setting would be a near future with a bit of a post-apocalyptic feel to it. It has about 18 Bad Ends and 3 Good Ends. A bonus route and Good End gets unlocked when all the 3 routes and their respective Good Ends have been seen. I could only test the PC version.
Ok, fine, presentation of the main and only girl:
- Name: Aneidea
- Race: Girl-Spider something...
- Age: Older than you...
- Blood Type: Not Really Human...
- Personality: Oh, you will find out soon enough...
Please leave me your (constructive) comments and enjoy!
Ahem, I think I forgot to remove the saved game data from the final built... will fix that soon... (Oops, sorry!) will work on that shortly...
Ok, so now the newest version 0.14 does not have saved games from my testing phase...
There was a bug in the Bonus Route. It should be fixed in the new version 0.16
P.S. I also have a ko-fi page... just saying... https://ko-fi.com/alexpaq

十分惊艳的作品！蜘蛛也很可爱！
可实际上对于“蜘蛛8条腿”的观点表示怀疑。
蛛形纲动物存在8条步足，这点没错。
但是蛛形纲的“步足”特指后四对足，其口器旁第一对足称为“螯肢”，有2个。第二对足称为“触肢”有2个。
所以蜘蛛严格来讲应该是12条腿
Thank you for playing my game! And thank you for the comments! I'm not an expert with arachnids, I just used the generic English word for the most known "legs".
i really like this VN but there is one problem
the main character is a bit annoying because he keeps changing his mood ALOT, when i choose no he became problematic all of a sudden and when i say yes he become super romantic its kinda funny actually
i liked the art style except the girl's CG when she is about to kill you
i give it 8,5/10 thank you for reading (:
Thank you for your honest review! And thank you for trying my VN!
Really fun adventure with Aneidea, the deaths are hilarious with how expected it is for the protagonist to die from their insults to Aneidea in the bad ends. Always pick up the books/stones and absorb them as your own, compliment Aneidea, and you're set for a lifetime with your newfound best friend. Found every ending! <3
Thank you very much for the review! Wow You did the whole game! Take you for trying my very first game!
My pleasure AlexPaq, I went through my footage very carefully and jotted down what bad endings I encountered and I was very happy to get encounter all 18 bad endings! Aneidea is top tier character! ^o^
Loved the art in the game, the story was a good mix of sincere and bizarre, and the protective nature of Aneidea was adorable. Great work!
Thank you very much for the review! You guessed right, English is my 2nd language. The voice over was really fun to hear!
Whoops, I found a bug on the bonus route. I think it's because it doesn't remember the name I entered from previous runs.
While running game code:
File "game/bonus.rpy", line 20, in script
mc "YES! It's her! She's coming here to find me!"
KeyError: u'mcname'

Oh wow, didn't see that one yet. I will take a look at it later and see how to fix it. Thank you for reporting it!
I think I was able to fix the bug/issue on the new uploaded version 0.16... You were right, it was because of the name.
I love how loopy the protagonist is! No fear, no filter, no hesitation, nothing phases him, he's just super happy to be able to talk to someone, even if she might eat him later.
Thank you for playing the game and posting a comment!
love it thank you
Nice! Thanks a lot for taking the time to make this review! I honestly don't know what to say! And you did one of the 3 routes to the very end! Hearing the voice over was really fun!
