About Always On
On a deeper level Always On is a story about the concept of Alignment.
Alignment is what AI developers do to ensure AI systems act in accordance with human values. This seems like it is a technical problem, but it is also fundamentally a philosophical one. Because if we as humans can’t agree on ethical questions? How are we going to align an AI that is smarter than us?
All choices you make in the game change your "alignment" which alters the route you take in the story.
There are 4 major endings, replay the game to see all of them!
Yes. Although it's not a typical visual novel I would still classify it as a short visual novel. The art style is heavily influenced by comic books.

[h3]Highly Topical and All Ages[/h3] More than a simple choices matter game, you not only play the part of an AI bot, but you also are asked to grapple with the social aspects of AI in a sensitive way. I think, that although covering the very adult topic of technology in social contexts, it's super cool as a [b]game for youngsters[/b] who will delight in getting the robot and Evie into a real tizz. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3428082851 [h3]1 Hour?[/h3] The developer description punts the game at 1 hour. This game has to be played through twice, so give yourself more time. You might also want to just take a moment to engage with the subject matter and google up the many SCI-FI references and fact check things. I happened to be reading a interesting book at the same time called [b]"To Be a Machine"[/b] . Subtitled [i]Adventures Among Cyborgs, Utopians, Hackers, and the Futurists Solving the Modest Problem of Death[/i], by Mark O'Connell, who covers the topic of digital immortality. Which is a thread of my own I wove into this game while playing too. [h3]Alignment Drift[/h3] Is Evie becoming a good or an evil robot? At the end of each chapter, the game …4 found this helpful
Just played this game for the first time, and I already know I'll be thinking about this one for some time. Full disclosure: I am good friends with the developer, so I'm definitely a little biased. That said, exactly because we are good friends, I would have told him honestly if I didn't like it. :) But man, I really love this game! It's incredible to think just one person created this experience, of course by making heavy use of AI generation technologies. Personally I prefer to let humans do the creative work, but in this specific case, I can see the benefits. Without the use of AI, this game would simply not exist, not in this form. The results definitely speak for themselves - the game's audiovisuals are really, really good. I am glad I made an exception, and took a chance. I hope you will too. Impressive sounds and clean comic book style graphics aside, the real star of the show is the story. The author cleverly presents complex topics in small, personal scenes between a little girl and her AI assistant. Playing as that AI, you are constantly asked to think about how things work, how the world works, how being human works. It does so in a very clear and direct way, with que…4 found this helpful
Contains the political opinions of the dev, and transhumanist moraliisation. The more the story advences, the less choices we have: The creator made an effort to give some choice to the player about their own opinion, expcet that it's only so on the surface. Beneath the text choice, the logic of the game doesn't allow enough room to be free to have our own opinion, it still falls back to what the dev believes about AI. The only romance avaiable is with another IA, and no matter what it's a toxic IA who wants to control humans, and who teaches you how to kind of rape two of them in more than one way at the same time, in order to make an experience. To have a fling with it, it you must think like it, go with that rape. Despite of that, there are interesting game mechanics, a gorgeous UI, not too different art styles, even if they were done by an AI. And thought it's not posh, for an indie game by only one dev with a deep story, it's not bad either. So I'd have made a neutral review. To decide, I went by what the description promises: "This is about AI Alignment, and Alignment is what AI developers do to ensure AI systems act in accordance with human values." Well, know…2 found this helpful
I've only played one pass through this game so far. Replayability remains high, as this is a narrative game where you have many choices, and these choices have a real impact on the story. I particularly liked. The situations are interesting, the moral choices not always easy to make, and the impact on the story is logical. I'm particularly sensitive to the theme of AI, and as a parent, I can say that I'm also sensitive to the education of young children. At times, I was very moved. The situations are just right, the writing is pretty and the aesthetics are cute. Highly recommended if you're interested in the theme.2 found this helpful
A short game and not easy for replay, but the story is well thought of , not much difference except in the endings. Was fun to play.1 found this helpful
