pure cringe and blasphemy
All honesty, good premise. The comments saying blasphemy are probably close-minded people stuck in their ways so just ignore them. And if they reply to my comment saying they aren't close-minded, they're just proving my point tbh
The entire screen is black for me. I can only see the text when I select it.
I'm having the same problem, the game isn't working :(
Do something that questions feminism or LGTB+ and prepare to be cancelled, mock and blaspheme against religion and you will have the applause of the maintream, we are sure that they are the persecuted ones and the ones who do not have privileges?
total blasphemy :(
Not cool to go after my religion like that
just to mention that the first people to discover Jesus' resurrection were a unch of jewish teenage women
dont give us crap about "misogny" when you dont know any history
blasphemy
READ TO THE END!!!!
Honestly, I thought it was innovative, brought up a lot of good points, and was respectful. While I understand why some people thought it was straight up blasphemy, if you take it seriously and think about every action, truly asking yourself what Jesus would do, you don't get to any bad ending that's truly horrible. It's a very well-thought out game. Not to mention the historical accuracy - not religious, mind you, but historical accuracy - that surrounds the way Jesus in the game is treated is spot on.
TLDR, I liked it. If I were Christian my opinions might be different, and I won't show this to my Christian friends as they would not appreciate it. However, it's still really good. If you're still reading and you're going to leave a negative comment/review, then stop. Ask yourself why? Not everyone likes everything. Did you not like the game content? That doesn't make it horrible, it just should make you not want to play it. Don't bash it based on what it's about. If you find something you don't like in gameplay, like a glitch, then by all means, report it. I don't mean to say that your opinion should be suppressed. I just mean that no one forced you to play this game. You're entitled to your opinion, just not to be a butt about it.
Oh, and play the thing before you review it. If you go "JESUS IS A WOMAN?! This game sucks," without playing. That's inconsiderate, cruel, and disrespectful of everything put into the game.
blasphemy, you should be ashamed
Seu jogo é muito legal. A idéia é ótima.
Estou te seguindo. me segue lá também.
Jesus is not a woman...get over it. He is the SON of GOD, not the daughter of God. Read your Bible. Very dumb to make a game like this.
Why say anything if you haven't played the game?
im not believer , but do the same thing with mohammed that we laugh, what bravoure, originality and facility to always caricature jesus only in this world xD
It's not a game to laugh, and it's not about making fun of any belief.
Nice and fresh approach to a very complex theme. You can keep improving it. Have you tried Reigns? mechanics are very similar and can inspire you further.
I did!! Good point! Definitely inspired me. Thanks for the feedback!!
Nice Job! I really enjoyed this story and its approach on WWJD. I really liked the gender perspective on this.
Thank you! <3
Felicidades por esta WGJ2020
Obrigada!!
to baixando aqui, só observar que na orientação do manual da jam eles recomendam voce deixar o jogo sem pagamento nenhum...o seu está com a opção pagamento opcional ativada.
Arrumei, obrigada!
oi! só pra comentar que você pode fazer o jogo rodar direto no browser já que está em html... sem precisar baixaar.
Eu não sei como fazer isso :S
Você poderia me ajudar? Brigadão!
me passa seu discord que eu te ajudo :)
Brigadão! Eu consegui achar uma ajuda já, vou implementar pra nova versão :D
Fiz o link, mas como não sou webdesigner. não sei como implementar a rolagem de tela. Você poderia me ajudar? Aqui o jogo. Me chama no Discord Talita Rhein#2091 :D
vou te deixar uma msg no discord daqui a pouco...mas basicamente é assim...tem uma opção de download...mas também tem a opção de embedar o jogo na página. Não sei como é o arquivo final que o seu software gera, mas geralmente ele tem um index.html certo? dependendo do software voce vai habilitar a função de embedar na pagina edit do seu jogo...que o próprio itch.io vai rodar na tela, pois ele puxa os arquivos a partir dessa presença de uma page index.html... o que é importante que já vi dá erro. O arquivo zip ao invés de ser ".zip" ser ".rar">esse ultimo dá erro, tem que ser zip mesmo. Mas se for totalmente em html nem precisa zipar, basta subir o index. Não sei qual o seu caso, então, se ficou confuso podemos tentar ver no discord. Vou te adicionar lá
Eu tentei com isso, mas aí a página embedada do jogo não tem scrolling, e não dá pra jogar :S
