Okay, I just finished the sixth chapter, so, here my thoughts about it, following the game's events (so, warning: possible spoilers).

First of all: nice opening speech. Very inspiring. Although I kinda feel bad for him. I mean: you always set it up in an amusing way, so yeah, it's fun. But, even more with such a speech, I can't help but hope he'll finally start to become a better man (at least less vain) and then stop always dying. I don't like when somewhat good people are hopeless.

Poor Annie, now she's aware too she didn't have any badass scene. That missile shot was very frustrating. I really hope she'll soon be able to shine (well, she did in the next sequence, but it was for being smart, not for being badass, so that's not the same). Maybe the next chapter will show a flashback of her protecting Nancy while the others were on the western server?

Really cool ref to suggest “Nobody” as a nickname, especially after teasing the chapter with a western setting, and while showing a scene about guns and quickness. I mean, totally worth entering in history books. Just a bit weird that in the latter lines it appears as a non-confusing name, but I guess it's an understandable drawback of allowing people choosing their own nickname, which is of course really cool too.

(Quick thought about the previous two points: “Gnome Ann” (cf obviously https://xkcd.com/1704/ ^^) would totally be a nice feminine counterpart to “Nobody”. And, Annie being the smallest of the team, it fits your settings. So having her called this way could be a good easter egg for people who choose “Nobody” for Orion)

Nice Cluedo game. Well, I guess it's more inspired from Among Us or The Werewolves of Millers Hollow, but the murder settings in a mansion from the Rockfeller server reminds me Cluedo more. Clonk is fun. Hope to have some steampunk server in the next chapters.

It's a bit weird to learn that you can only use the artefact once in 25 days… just after we saw it being used twice on the same day. I guess duplicate several people almost at the same time count for only one use, but if so it should probably have a known limitation here too (duplicate the whole WRE army for one day would be a bit too much).

Also, still about this artifact: now that the idea has been explicitly suggested, you HAVE TO set up a scene with Orion using it to please one of the girls. Absolutely mandatory :-þ

Saw you finally added the pink pajamas in Annie's gallery like we talked earlier, but with a different haircut. Good way to mix both choices! She's definitely very cute.

About Orion's look changing: please do not make him look too muscular. Well, I guess that's a typical male fantasy, and the whole game setup is built to fulfil male fantasies, which obviously not always fit mines, but… let's just say a masculine counterpart to Micaela would be just as unattractive to me and most of the other girls I know as Micaela herself is unattractive for people other than Chang.

Axel's encounter was… surprising. I mean, I guessed something like this could happen after we saw him at the mansion, but I thought it would take way longer than that. Sounds promising. Now that we know what happened to Thanatos, I wonder if William Bardot will be the only main bad guy, or if there's still some Ganon(dorf) or Palpatine lying somewhere in Eternum.

Now, cool to see Eva again! I really like her new look, and the other girls' reactions was fun. Still hopes she'll finally join the party later: as I already said, she could be a really good addition to the team, especially if it's some kind of optional content, like for Yuffie in FF7.

The story part with Calypso was really interesting, and with very cute drawing. It almost felt a bit weird to come back to the usual rendering after that. Really promising lore, can't wait to learn more about all of this.

It felt a little weird to kill the guy, but in an unusual way: shot by Orion, he'll just have a 24h delay to log in again, while the praetorians could have excommunicated him, with all the now known consequences, so it's oddly the more merciful choice. Makes me wonder how the Trolley problem could be adapted in such settings.

At night, another duel, another occasion to use the “Nobody” nickname. Still no Cyclops, so I still think it refers to the film rather than to the Odyssey, despite the Bardot's company name. But what I said before still applies: they all use it as if it was non-confusing, which is a bit odd (but, once again, understandable).

The final sequence was cute, hot and fun at the same time, so good job here again. And then scary. A damn good cliffhanger again, you teasing devil! :D

Generally speaking, really good job on the music and sounds once again. You especially have a great taste in ambient music, I think I'll get several of the tracks you used.

Oh, and, I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with people telling that Eternum is just as good as Once in a lifetime. It's in fact way better. I found OIAL good when I played it before starting Eternum, but now that I can compare both, the oldest just can't compete with the newest. Your progression is really impressive (even more considering that OIAL was already above average).

…and I guess that's all for now, but I'll probably play again while waiting for the seventh chapter, so maybe I'll make another comment later, if there's some little details that bothers me on a second run like last time.

Thank you for such a great review!

Okay, I now have a playlist of about two and a half hours of music from the Eternum OST to listen while I'm doing something else. Thanks a lot!

Now that I listen those music without the game's ambience, I realize that some of them reminds me OST from other games. For instance, Another Round gives me Prof. Layton vibes. Some others sound like they could fit with Nobuo Uematsu's work on Final Fantasy.

Oh, fun fact: due to a misclick, I added Lindsey Stirling's Carol of the Bells to the playlist and… I thought it fitted perfectly with the others tracks. So now I wonder how it would look if she appeared in the game, for instance if Orion invited one of the girls to see her in a concert. As her clips looks like she's visiting a distinct Eternum server each time, it could match.

More seriously, can't wait to listen what you'll put on The New World, pirate-themed things looks promising. Oh, and could we please come back to Valley of the Kings? Those Who Love is cool, but I would love some more egyptian-themed music (Eternum: come for the sexy, stay for the story, ask for more for the music :-°)

And, I wonder… could it help you if I link some ambient music released under Creative Commons (or other licences allowing to reuse it)? There's a few of those I enjoy that may sound cool in the game, but as I don't know how you work for this, I'd rather ask before spamming :-)

Of course, feel free to link them ^^

Let's go, then !

First of all, there's a great turn-based strategy game called Battle for Wesnoth, that is fully (so, including the music) released under free licences. Some of the musics (especially the elvish theme) may fit for med/fan servers. Sorry, I don't know any link to directly listen them from the browser, but you can download them with the game or from the github repository. Here's a summary:

https://wiki.wesnoth.org/Available_Music

Then Laei made some calm, a bit sad ambient music that could fit for nostalgic or introspective moments, like when Alex is remembering her grandma. I personally find “Petit pantin au cœur de glace” (french for “Little puppet with a heart of ice”) particularly fascinating.

https://laei.bandcamp.com/album/eponyme-i-a-soundtrack-for-my-life

Now, let's come to Dogmazic. That's the website of a french association promoting music released under Creative Commons and other free licenses. There's a lot of really good things here, so I suggest you to search the whole site, but here's some pointers:

Greg Baumont released an album called “Wood”, with various ambient music. I especially like “La sixième porte de shanaaghar” (“the sixth door of shanaaghar”, don't know what shanaaghar is supposed to be) and “The blue star”.

https://play.dogmazic.net/albums.php?action=show&album=670

Dogers made an album called “Contes à la lueur d'une bougie” (“Tales by candlelight”) that can easily be used as a soundtrack for table role-playing game or for some good old RPG-maker game. My favourite here is “Un bien étrange marché” (“a very strange market”) that can fit for visiting curious places, but “Profondeurs” (“Depths”) and “Confrontation” can also work for worrying situations.

https://play.dogmazic.net/albums.php?action=show&album=8997

Ehma has uploaded several albums of various genres on the site. I especially like “Pizzicato”, for instance for a journey sequence, or “La porteuse d'eau” (“The water carrier”) where the intro gives me vibes of coming home after a long trip.

https://play.dogmazic.net/albums.php?action=show&album=441

If you're looking for tropical, jungle themes, maybe Philippe Mangold's work can do the job too, with tracks like “amazonia”.

https://play.dogmazic.net/albums.php?action=show&album=1946

Well, I'll stop here for now, that's already a lot of things. But as I said, don't hesitate to search through Dogmazic, there's really a lot of gems here.

Hope some of this will help!

Oh, those are really nice sources, thank you!

Hi, playing on android, finished 0.5, if i install 0.6 will it update the apk and save my progress or will i have to start again?

(1 edit)

Just want to say I run it on my windows laptop and it runs like a charm. I loaded my old save from last July and the story is progressing normally.
And this time, I paid for the game to support you and thank you for the blast I'm having.
That Vader reference in the bunker was noticed and deeply appreciated. It felt like the "Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well" meme.
Thank you for all your work, I can't wait for 0.7

Thank you for your support! <3

This is one of the best visual novels I've ever played and is by far my favorite.

Yo i skiped evas whole story and didnt realize it is there a way to see all of it before i restart the whole story

(SPOILER) Hey, so i had to restart my progress and im having this issue where after you ask dalia for her password to her private server, her profile goes gray and idk what to do since theres no choice and idk what i did wrong. Pls help

Thank you so much for making an amazing story I'm so ready for 0.7 I truly appreciate the work you put in to this Caribdis!

My pleasure!

Hello!caribdis,I really like Penny and Alex, and I really hope there will be more of their plot

There seems to be a crash problem, I am unable to open the app anymore :(

After playing to a certain point and saving, and when I tried to reopen the app the next day, I cant and it keeps crashing

yeah same's happening to me. I'm tryna redownload and reinstall the apk, but i dunno if it's gonna work

Fixed by uninstalling and then reinstalling it. It now launches and still had my saved progress.

really? how come it kept your progress after uninstalling it? did you back it up somewhere?

I had fixed the crash issue by clearing phone storage space, clearing app cache, turning off my phone completely for 5 minutes and turning it back on. No idea if it'll work for you

Ok.. Tried to download the full render android version, but when I try to decompress it( since is in .zip that is what I needed to do in my head ) it says "error (invalid entry)" 


Si guess I'll stick with the normal version? 

Or there is a fix? Just to know 


Ty

Try to unzip it with different app, i had some problems with it too. (Es explorer didn't work, solid explorer worked fine)

Either my memorie is shit or i nevee got her but who is this eva girl everone is talking about i followed the walk-through and dont really remember any eva, maybe its something i did a while ago.

(1 edit)

...She's the blue-haired twintail girl in the preview pics...the one you could choose to bang in the Cyberpunk server if you chose to wander around after your talk with Chop-Chop.

i skipped her because it said it would hurt dalia  

(1 edit)

*edit* Nvm, I found a fix. All I had to do was reinstall it completely and no more errors! Still amazing


0.6 works fine until I get to the point where you're in *spoilers btw*





A murder mystery scenario with nova and Annie. It crashes after seeing a briefcase and I can't start up the app anymore :(

0.6's absolute great, it just keep getting better and better, thanks Cari!

0.5 android version didn't work for me, but 0.6 is working good, no issues yet. Excited to finally try it out, I've been waited for months ;)

(I've had problems with zip btw, es explorer says its corrupted and unable to open, but solid explorer did unzip it just fine)

I'm daring everyone in the chat to look at Eva for 1 second and try not to be obsessed.

Is it only me or does she look like a slightly older Luna?

i don't see it

I'm playing from android and I'm now experiencing a problem, even tho yesterday everything went fine.

Wheneve I click on the game icon and start the game, It crashes at the first splash page and closes automatically. How can I solve this? I don't want to uninstall and reinstall it

Same, everything fine yesterday but today i can't open it

Had to reinstall the apk for the same reason at about 3/4 of the episode. Saves remained at my device, but do at your own consideration

About Android version:

- You should be able to install the normal version without much problem, but I can't guarantee that all saves will work. 

- Keep in mind that this game is meant to be played on PC. I don't even port the game myself, and Android makes the whole process very difficult since there are hundreds of different devices. Also, the quality will be reduced due to the size of the game and Android's <2GB limitation for APKs.

- You can play at full resolution by downloading the uncompressed ZIP version, but you need to extract it and follow the instructions inside the note file. If your phone's antivirus marks it as a virus it's obviously a false positive, just ignore it to proceed.

Ok, I'm Sold, this game is a masterpiece and I'll definitely have to support some when I get the money! Keep up the great work, can't wait to see more, though these cliffhangers have me like on a notepad trying to figure out what might happen next

Thank you so much!

no problem! I just might cry when the game ends haha everything is so well put together that I'm already attached! I love Sci-Fi like stuff so this is an amazing experience as Ready Player One is also one of my favorite movies so I'm happy to see someone making a game like this and doing such a good job at it because I've seen fails at doing stuff similar to it or are just completely lacking any depth to anything, so keep it up! I'm already impatient on when the next part'll come out cause I neeeeed to know what happens next, I have so many ideas running through my mind on how this could go and I'm going through em all wondering what might be it

Awesome Vader reference with Thanatos.  Suits him well, haha!  Also, the Alex scene....holy shit.  Though the very last bit kinda makes me want to look at her with a sideways glance now.

Anyway, even without the sex, this would be a kick ass game.  Keep it up!

I will, thanks!

The reference hahahaha so many good references 

I haven't dick ridded someone so much just to get back into a discord server just so I can play a porn game I don't even jerk off to cause it damages your brain when watching too much of it or in this case playing it. I never got a response to if they even considered unbanning me. All it says is whoops when I try to rejoin. For whatever reason I got banned I would do some type of thing to prove I wouldn't do whatever got me banned.

Okay, barely gotten into the new content, but I have to comment: The fucking Darth Vader quote, from the comic, for Thanatos? Beautiful. Fucking beautiful!

Glad you liked it!

musics are top tier as usual
