Re: [T] Athena Cykes: Ace Attorney – Dark Ace Saga ★☆●○○

Just to give you an update: the plan is that sometime this week, I'll post up a sketch of how the various story parts of the trial "connect" in my understanding, for you two to make sure that I haven't lost the plot. If that doesn't need major corrections, I can start on the review post al...

Re: [T] Athena Cykes: Ace Attorney – Dark Ace Saga ★☆●○○

That helps a bit, thank you. Why does Marian decide to sell the club? She didn't seem to have any intention of selling it when she comes to court in Case #1, but then she asks Apollo for permission to sell it when Case #1 ends. What changed? The case hints that MW-12 was part of the reason she sold ...

Spoiler : Another Question :
Could you clarify what MW-12 has to do with Marian's perfectionism? I understand that "fear of losing it all" has something to do with it, but I have no idea how to make the pieces connect.

Re: [T] Athena Cykes: Ace Attorney – Dark Ace Saga ★☆●○○

Things on my end have been chaotic, so once again I thank you for your patience. Let's get the momentum back up again. The case doesn't quite work right, and I'm trying to put my finger on why. Talking this out helps me grasp the "big picture" issue, so my suggestions will be more in the r...

QA Prelude : A Web of Turnabouts https://i.imgur.com/zOVqjGu.png A girl power courtroom drama where being European is an affirmative defense...? Isn't there a musical number about this? Long-term members of the forum will know that in cases where I'm not sure of myself, I'll break off some smaller ...

I had gotten distracted, but the QA is now moving again. I've written up the QA for one part. I'll try to get the next two parts done by the end of the week, and then the final part is going to take a while.

Thanks again for your patience.

Logic clarification:
Spoiler : :
What was the letter that came with the return envelope Larry gave Kristoph? Is that the red envelope, or is that evidence that just never came up to court?

Re: [T] Athena Cykes: Ace Attorney – Dark Ace Saga ★☆●○○

The review is at 1800 words so far, and this is halfway through the shortest of the four parts. You did give me a 17,000 frame case... I'll keep you updated at least once a week, but this may take longer than expected.

Re: [T] Athena Cykes: Ace Attorney – Dark Ace Saga ★☆●○○

I've finished a first playthrough and will start on the review. This will probably need a week, maybe two, as I expect I'll need to play through at least some sections of the case again.

Bug report on Web of Turnabouts: There's some bad variable handling. Somewhere in the Kingson CE with first statement, "I will remind this court that it is Klavier Gavin on trial today, not I.", the variable "Press" is set to "Press + 1". Instead of incrementing a varia...

Made it through part 1 of Web . This week looks a little busy, so I'm expecting I'll make it through part 2 over the weekdays, but beyond that will need to wait over the weekend. Still, progress is progress. Do any parts carry data forward between trial parts? I normally QA in playtest mode, which i...

Re: [T] Athena Cykes: Ace Attorney – Dark Ace Saga ★☆●○○

When presenting the empty medicine bag, mention that there wasn't even a bottle or blister pack. The mention that the bag was "empty" was ambiguous, and that made it harder for me to tell just how suspicious this was. On O'Reilly's Mood Matrix, the co-counsel conversation confuses me. Los...

Re: [T] Athena Cykes: Ace Attorney – Dark Ace Saga ★☆●○○

So, I've finally started on the QA. I replayed Case 1 to refresh my memory, and I noticed a few minor logic errors. They're all easily fixed. Would you mind if I give you that list, and you patch those while I'm working on the Case 2 QA?

Re: The Dark Mirror

A "reversal" theme for Ace Attorney is kind of ironic, no?

Best of luck to all the entrants.
