I like the conceit that the AI is trying to contact you through the game, and the glitch effects. There are some really funny jokes like spaceship hidden under a tarp that says "no spaceship here." But I did feel like the mention of the Halloween party was just thrown in to make it qualify for this jam?
The entire game is a creepypasta in order to qualify for the jam. The Halloween party mention was just a bonus.
Very DDLC. Nice execution, I think giving the player a chance to talk to Eric initially would add more attachment to the characters.
Funny you mention that, because originally Eric was going to have dialogue for all three days (Dash, too) but I both couldn't think of anything and ran out of time. :-( Ah, well. Such is the "day job and game dev balance" life. Thank you so much for giving MAAI: 153 a try!
Hello! It's me again, I'm sorry for making ruckus earlier www
SPOILER: I love the idea of this game, it feels almost real. I could see the transparent spirit from time to time and that makes me felt uneasy. And the error message and the forced choices makes it even more creepy.
The only thing that really bother me is the very small quick menus on the corner. I almost missed it and only noticed it when the screen was completely black. I would rather use Ren'Py's default quick menu configuration, or if you really want to make it feels like "no escape game", you can just delete the quick menu and disable right-click and escape button.
Hey no problem, I'm glad you brought that error up! Now if it happens again, I will know what to do. xD Thank you so much for all your feedback, this was a very experimental title for me and I'm glad it turned out okay. ^^
Hello! It seems like I can't download the game as the file isn't there.
If you're using the app, it doesn't always play nice with downloads. I've run into that issue myself. ^^;
Try downloading the game from the website instead of the app. If it still doesn't work, let me know!
It works wwww I'll play it now. Thank you!
Great! Glad I could help!
Hopefully the discount will show up on the main page for the game soon, but if not here is a link to download MAAI 153 for free until November 1st! https://itch.io/s/77942/man-alien-the-ai-153-edition-spooktober-sale
