Interesting way to incorporate visual novel aspects and gameplay together. Although I found the sourcing of the art being ai filtered images to be morally dubious.
I feel as though morally dubious is extreme. it doesn't hurt original creators any more due to recent copyright rulings in the supreme court. and using this art will never be similar to original artists, there will always be defects. but because of the nature of the game jam, we needed a larger amount of scenes with cohesive styles, using an AI generated pack helped in making a good vertical slice of a game. I personally wouldn't normally use AI art in well developed projects with more time involved.
Not really my kind of game but it seems pretty polished.
Thank you! I liked your game too!
It's a bit hard to see what effect your choice has until the end of the day comes around. It would be useful to see the levels of each category at all times and change them when a choice is made.
Thanks for the review! We mentioned at the beginning of the game that it was very intentional, most of the time people in the real world can't see what consequences their choices have, and we wanted to emulate that.
