Description

"Four love interests,

Three days,

Two Murders,

One Mafia,

One Attorney.

Who will survive and who will die?"


Hello hello Ace Attorney fans. My name is Elmo and I'm the leader of the Apollo Just-Ass Fangame Project (name of game to be confirmed). 

This is an ongoing project that is NON-PROFIT. Meaning, whatever we do is FREE and on a volunteer basis. We do not seek to make any profit from this fangame whatsoever (cuz we don't own Ace Attorney and that would be illegal) but we want to create a fun game that would entertain fans of Ace Attorney.



GAME PREMISE


Ace Attorney is a franchise filled with ships. Have you ever thought of controlling Apollo and immersing yourself in the thrill of a case where the stakes are high? Imagine a game where YOU get to choose what Apollo does and who he dates.

Think of this game as Apollo Justice Ace Attorney mashed with your average dating simulator (no, not Drammatical Murder).

That's (W)right! We're making an Ace Attorney dating simulator with our main character, Apollo! It's about time we gave him some love, don't ya think?

But we aren't making him Aoba, no. We're mashing up the game mechanics of Ace Attorney and dating simulators to create this fangame featuring the top Apollo ships of the fandom. 

We plan to make this game interactive with a thrilling case, examination scenes a là Ace Attorney Investigations, and of course, courting the person of your choice.

The game is set after the events of Dual Destinies but before the beginning of Spirit of Justice.

SUMMARY:
Wocky Kitaki accidentally involves himself with the murder of a rival mafia head's daughter. It just so happens that Apollo Justice becomes his defense attorney (again). Join Apollo as he fights to take down the dangerous Dvena Calla mafia before they hurt the one he loves - Klavier, Athena, Ema or Juniper - Apollo has to choose.


Exciting! But in order to make this a reality, we need HELP! That's where you come in.



!!! WE ARE RECRUITING !!!
As of now, the main plot of the game has been decided and the Story Division is in full swing developing character routes.

However, we severely lack people in the Art Division. But before I state the roles needed to be filled, let me inform you of the benefits of joining the Team.

It makes sense, everyone seems to boat Apollo with someone, why not a fangame to let them pick their choice? HAR HAR HAR!
