Story of Ibara

Post by doctorx0079 »

Does anyone know what the actual storyline of Ibara is? Like why Teresa Rose is attacking Edelweiss, who the heroes really are etc.

That's peculiar, since in my browser they're talking in japanese and I don't even have that character set installed.

Example 1

Example 2
No matter how good a game is, somebody will always hate it. No matter how bad a game is, somebody will always love it.

Well, Flash doesn't use fonts. Well, it does, but they're embedded. AFAIK, there is no mojibake in Flash. Then again, I'm wrong quite often about things I don't research (like this).

It's gotta be a browser problem. Anyone else using Firefox?

There's a 0th esisode to the story, a prelude if you will, that Cave was passing out in very thing manga form at the AOU show.

Go to Japan, find a hot girl who cosplays and get her to dress up as one of the Rose sisters. Problem solved!

Rotate Me : I think they took away the links. They want you to pay for them now or something.

Looks like I'm gonna have to learn Japanese if I really wanna know what's going on.

Milena Velba (before Macromastia and, well,plumpness) would have been a perfect Teresa Rose. I'll think of other models for the roles :lol:

Yes, before the game came out even, and also posted it in the first reply in this thread. The site has since moved though. Here is a working link. I should definitely redo the character pages though.... they were made for a wider layout. :/

Thank you! It would be nice if you could also put on the first page that it's from Arcadia 061 (as it says on the icon), and a couple words about what that is, since not everyone in the world knows.

Have you been able to translate the ending of the game or anything from the ends of the levels?

Nope, sure haven't. Haven't played the game seriously (which means haven't got past stage 2) and nobody has ever sent me any screengrabs.

if you mean the thick booklet then yeah thats all there is to it.

theres also a thin booklet that was given out at AOU which only has the Ibara story in it..
the destruction of everything, is the beginning of something new. your whole world is on fire, and soon, you'll be too..
