Ariane in Paradise Day 1
Added 2019-07-03 06:59:30 +0000 UTC
Here are the downloads for the Day 1 Beta.
For best results delete the old version before extracting the new version, or at the very least extract to a separate directory. Do Not Overwrite!
The extracted program is in the folder ArianeInParadiseBeta-pc (or-mac), and the name of the exe is ArianeInParadiseBeta.exe If you start the game and do not hear music right away, you are running the old version. If you go to preferences and don't see volume for sound and music, you are running the old version.
Also because of the name change, any saved games will either not show up or won't work. I'm hoping this wont happen with future updates, but things happen in beta.
New Stuff:
Sound and Music - As soon as you launch you should hear music if you have speakers on. Also most of the game has sound effects. Music and sounds can be controlled, or completely muted in preferences.
The Yacht Path - In the last version I disabled a couple of options. One was to say "I'm here on business", and the other was "Go to the ticket counter". These paths are now open and lead to a yacht trip around the island. This path is longer than the other two combined, and there are at least 3 versions depending if you chose "rich" path, the "business" path, or the "regular vacationer" path.
The Sequel to "Rachel and Ariane" - Besides Rachel and Ariane, there are a couple of characters from my last game "Rachel and Ariane" that show up on the yacht. It is not important to know who these people are, but it puts a fun spin on the story if you do.
I have a lot more I can say, but I think it would be best to let you just play it and ask questions. Also if you find bugs, misspellings, corrections, etc. leave a comment.

2019-07-31 10:16:30 +0000 UTCI LOVE the idea of Ariane knowing her. The incredible possibilities for awkwardness (maybe even sexy awkwardness) are staggering. Go for it!

2019-07-09 04:54:19 +0000 UTC"If Day 1 is this dense, I can't imagine what the whole thing is gonna look like. " I now have a working version of Day 2 and I'm wondering the same thing. I've been writing Day 3 this weekend, then went back and replayed day 1 and 2, and decided to trim down day 3 because the game is already a bit on the big side. P.S. Yes there may be consequences down the road. Part of me wanted to give the player an option to tell Ariane right away what happened, but I wasn't sure what her reaction should be. After all you have only known Ariane for a few hours at this point. Other than +5 charm for your honesty and -20 sexy for going through with it, would Ariane care?, would she stop talking to you? (thus ending the game), would you point her out, and have Ariane recognize her? Come to think of it, these might be fun choices.

2019-07-08 10:52:02 +0000 UTCWow. There are a TON of options here! If Day 1 is this dense, I can't imagine what the whole thing is gonna look like. Quick question: Is it safe to assume that the "encounter" with Tassiana will have more consequences down the road? Or is it just a one-off if you happen to make some specific choices? Either way, this is a lot of fun and I can't wait to see more.

2019-07-07 17:04:04 +0000 UTCThanks! Next month I should be releasing a day two path with an all day hike to a couple of interesting locations. I want to release the rest of day 2 after that, but it is still a work in progress.

2019-07-05 02:59:14 +0000 UTCIts a very nice game, just get a little impatient during the first couple of episodes waiting for the further development of the games. That comes with time. Your renders are great, and thank you for developing this next episode.
