Any plans to maybe make an Android port for mobile users? I loved this game on PC but now that I no longer own a PC I'm having a hard time finding good games that are available on Android. Would love to be able to play this and it's sequel on Android.
Hey thanks for letting us know you're interested in an Android version! We have been considering putting our games on Android but not sure if they will be acceptable in the official app store. Would you still consider buying our games for Android if they were available on our website? AGLstudioArt.com
if uploaded to itch.io there is an unofficial app for Android that can download and update it. That app is called Mitch. But all in all yeah, I would definitely buy an Android port if one were released.
I recommend to play the game then watch the video to avoid spoilers!!
First I want to start with the visuals, the characters look amazing it has an anime touch and they seem lively, it has a bit of voice acting that is great touch it brings the game to life. You make decisions in the game that matters and the story is simplified but gets the job done. with quick time events and some interactions the game makes it more than a visual novel. It's a shame that's short and I just noticed the game was released in 2017!! I'm glad I play it and I Highly recommend everyone to try it it's good stuff!!
This game is pretty fun. I like the character designs of the main characters and the overall game. Even though this is mostly a visual novel it still has some small mini games to keep me actually playing and not just looking at a game moving by itself. An overall fun game. Ill e looking forward to playing Paramedium 2!
fun little game. the art and character designs are excellent. the va clips were great too and fit the characters well. never thought id find a naming system so intriguing. i look forward to playing paramedium 2
This first part of Paramedium is a successful mix between visual novel and horror game.
We also like that you take some effort in establishing a universe with the guild as well as little brushstrokes on the past of your characters. We will try to recall and share as soon as possible the second part, much more ambitious and with some interesting moments.
Hey NP! We are happy you enjoyed Paramedium! Email us at AGLstudioArt@gmail.com and we can give you download code for Paramedium 2 as a thank you for making your video (=
This was an oddball, primarily because I didn't know how it was gonna go down initially. However, it establishes the basis of Clerics and their job well, alongside the introduction of the main characters and how they go about ghostbusting. I've said this in the Paramedium 2 review, but I should reiterate: this is a well made blend of House of the Dead gunplay and heart-crunching horror. I managed to get away with some dings, but had I freaked out, which was hard not to do, I would've been a goner.
Overall, 8/10. I'm sure it'll be kickass, the full release on Itch and Steam.
Hey Grimperfect, Thanks for the (hash but honest) feedback! Since this game was created for a game jam and we are a small team with only had 6 weeks timeframe and zero budget, we had to make some hard decisions on what to include. Such as a non-linear story. In regards to our choice not to use Renpy, we are also making another game, Faulty Apprentice, which is our flagship, and feel renpy will not allow us to grow and expand as much as Unity will.
That's sad you think the mini games are pointless, but we feel they add a lot of excitement to gameplay and plan to expand and incorporate more of them into the completed game. Hope you enjoy the 2nd demo (which was made in only 6 weeks as well, so go easy on us! XD) but we look forward to your honest feedback. (=
If you see some potential in this series, we invite you to support our Kickstarter Campaign!
Thanks for playing our humble game, Paramedium! Stay in the Light, Grimperfect! -din
Off Topic: Can someone please tell me why 'suspended account' text is still visible? They're promoting porn links FFS. For those who are absolutely curious (and of legal age) just right click and copy and paste link in a web browser but put a + at the end so that it shows only a preview of where it redirects.
On Topic: I love that this game is being promoted just in time for All Hallows Eve again ;)
On Topic Reply: Thanks for digging Paramedium! We are actually running a Kickstarter campaign now to make a full game of the Paramedium universe! Please check it out and help us gain support! (I promise its not a porn spam link) XD
Liked what I saw, but changing conversation options didn't seem to matter except for minor conversation deviations -- understandable for a game made in only 6 weeks, but still disappointing. Also less than stellar were the arcade bits being exactly the same each time, so changing characters didn't really change all that much other than a few snippets of dialogue. A bit of randomization would have helped liven things up a bit, especially on the second attempt. Keeping the name you gave one character was a nice (though maybe unintentional?) touch.
Great concept though! And the transitions and artwork were slick as well. Really would like to see a larger game come from this idea in due time.
Changing up the locations of actions/attacks during the "action" sequences, for one. Both playthroughs play exactly the same, sans changed dialogue (as mentioned). I don't play many visual novels, though, so maybe that's the norm.
Really like this game. My partner and I played the game together and it was funny and short. The game has some really great dialogue and of course the art it nice. The VO is nice too. Really recommend it if you are looking for a quick play and interesting story. Very interested in part 2 and see our continuing adventure of Opal.
I have to say that this was an interesting little game. Kinda saw what was coming there before the end but it was definatelly intersting and the art style was nice. Hearing words but not what they were saying was a throw off at first but easily forgivable as I wasn't expecting voices at all. On to number two after a bit.
Hey thanks for the comment Game Junkie! We are happy to hear you enjoyed our little game jam! Hopefully one day we will have enough budget to afford full voice acting haha XD
Really thought the ghost was gonna be in grandma's goiter. I know there's a part 2 already, but I'd love to see this as a full-blown series. Probably my favorite visual novel so far.
Haha thanks for making a video! Glad you are enjoying the Paramedium series so far! We originally made them for halloween game jams, but we look forward to developing a full game after our Faulty Apprentice title is complete. If you make another vid let us know. Cheers!

Hey Causticius! Thanks for the detailed feedback. What do you mean by randomization?
We hope to develop this humble game jam into a larger game as well!
