Hi LionofLegend! I apologize for the late reply, but I really appreciate the video ;\\\\; I'm glad that you enjoyed the game even if the ending was doomed from the start! Can I share the video on twitter? I'm sure the other players would love it too!
I'm a little late on playing this, but it was so much fun!
I always love getting a chance to see the EmWa characters again (and Béla definitely has a very strong presence. I quite like him.) It was really cool to learn a little bit more about Béla too. Even if it wasn't all that much, due to the word limit.
Also, I must say that it is always a delight when I get a chance to see your art in your games. You did a great job with Béla's sprite and the menu screen! The GUI and the lighting effects were really cool too. They really added to the atmosphere. (And the music you chose was really intense. Which suited a very intense game!)
You really did a fantastic job with Dark Arrangement. You have such cool ideas for your O2A2 visual novels, and I'm excited for what you come up with next year too! (And I think you know already, but I'm also super hyped for Rule of Salt! ^^)
The game was so intense Banya, OH MH GOD!!! The concept is amazing and made me very tense while playing the game (in a good way). The GUI looked neat too, same for Béla's sprite, and I loved the fact the sprite would seldom be illuminated, it really added to the mood of the game! Congrats on making this!!
Hey Chimerique, thank you so much for playing Dark Arrangement ;\\\; making the atmosphere tense was exactly what I wanted, I'm glad it provided! Since you encouraged me to draw sprites for games (can't thank you enough for that back then) I followed the advice, I did the art this time! >\\\<
Yes, a new game from Banya! It's fun to translate the codes. I'm surprised they made the jam with all that they mentioned in the dev log. Either way, fun game.
Thank you Nimsaway! I went from "sleep is for the weak" to "sleep for a week" right after the jam and the exam, hence my late comment x° but I'm really glad you liked it! Thank you for playing it!
Béla is getting a lot of compliments this round ahah! Jokes aside, thank you so much Pri ;\\\\; I'm glad you played and liked the game! And hearing that the extra doesn't disappoint makes me a lot relieved ;\\\\;
Hi SimplyAmi! Thank you for playing Dark Arrangement >w< If you enjoy cipher codes then you'll probably like the main game too, I'm a cipher enthusiast and did some riddles with them in it! (Albeit very simple because I didn't want to confuse players)
Whoa, that was tense 😫 The buzzing music is such a nice touch, and a cool reference to the main game! And I was delighted to see Bela again, I just love his design so much kdflkslfks
Hirooo >\\\< thank you so much for playing Dark Arrangement! I see you picked up immediatly why I chose the music, I'm really glad! And thank you for your kind words too, it means a lot!
I went translating the comments, I guess he's really papa Béla now xD thank you so much for playing and streaming it, Chiiaki! I shared the video in the newest devlog eheh!
That was so funnnn. I immediately shot him in my first attempt and died LOL. The art was really good and I liked the intense music and horror elements. The lore sounds really interesting, makes me wanna play Emerald Wasp<3
The Russian roulette mechanic was super creative, and the atmosphere was also my favorite.
Oooh thank you Sudachys! If you do play Emerald Wasp I hope you'll enjoy it, there's a lot about the lore in game and also hidden on sight eheh! Let me know what you think of it in case! Thank you again for playing Dark Arrangement, I'm glad you liked it >\\\<
Oh my gosh though... what an intense, claustrophobic vibe! Right from the get-go with that pounding music and no context, just being thrown into this game. My heart was beating so fast already!!
I somehow made it to the final round even on the first try, though then stupidly thought I should try to cheat at that point... 🤣 Then it took me a while to get back to that point as I wanted to try some of the other questions and also I kept then dying a lot hahaha. But it was really fun trying out the different options and then not knowing when I'd suddenly just die (I think one time I even died on the very first round!!! LOL) I think I eventually got every possible interaction/ending though... unless there's a secret one I didn't uncover lkadjf
This was so great though. Between the flickering lights and the sprite effects (especially when it all goes dark except for his eyes!!) and the intense music and just the whole INTENSITY of everything, it really got my blood pumping. Was on the edge of my seat the whole time. You really set up the intensity so well! And the art was so lovely!! I really enjoyed it!
Oh my ;\\\; thank you so much for your kind words, Carrot! And of course for playing the game too! I was excited and terrified when I released it, terrified because I thought it wasn't effective enough, you can't imagine how your comment made me feel better about it! I'm really glad to hear I managed to make an intense atmophere within the limitations, it's exactly what I wanted (if I could work with more sounds or more time I would have polished it more) And also hearing that the art and the effect is good is amazing to me ;\\\; I did the art this time and I'm glad Béla is received well in my style too! (In the main game he has a sprite done by another artist) Thank you againnnn

I like the idea of the game and the fact that the music starts unexpectedly. I also love the atmosphere of the game and Bela's emotions)
Thank you for playing and commenting, MefindAli! The atmosphere was my main goal but I'm glad to hear that emotion showed aswell >w<
Thought I could survive. Little did I know...
Was a good time though :)

Man, oh, man, this was so intense!! I died a lot but the Russian roulette is such a cool concept for an O2A2 game, it was super thrilling!!
I remember really enjoying Emerald Wasp when I played it and this extra didn't disappoint either! I also have to say, Bela's design is awesome!!
Béla is getting a lot of compliments this round ahah!
Jokes aside, thank you so much Pri ;\\\\; I'm glad you played and liked the game! And hearing that the extra doesn't disappoint makes me a lot relieved ;\\\\;
Its so cool that the endings were in morse code! I realized after dying like 3 times. 😫

It's really fun! And it's really really tempting to cheat
Ahaha I know it's tempting, that's why I gave the option every time! Thank you for playing Dark Arrangement Altila!
I DIED SO MANY TIMES LAKSDJFASLDF

I was in a very tricky situation. I died anyway. :D
Ramoooon! Thank you for playing Dark Arrangement ;\\\\;
LOL we all must die eventually (?)
Well, I died. Like a lot. Lol.
The true experience of the game x°°
(I did too, I basically had more lives than cats during testing)
Thank you for playing Dark Arrangement ;\\\\;
