Played this 2 years ago, specifically 2020 around -ber months. Came back here to reminisce, ahhh sweet memories, makes me wanna cry. Still worth it for anyone who haven't tried it yet, definitely the best one to start with Furry VNs. As also this was my first.
while i was playing through this game a ton of elements in the story reminded me of Stargate SG1 (in the way it uses ancient cultures as they were coming to/from earth, god's being advanced cultures from other galaxies then sharing knowledge/technology and it even has a wolf that resembles that of Daniel Jackson at the end that even goes to Egypt) those were some similarities now here's some differences (no star gate or SG1 team and the desert planet in khemia isn't called Abydos) these two projects are very similar but also very different, this was just my stupid little Brain connecting dots that shouldn't connect but go ahead and share your thoughts I guess
Waaitt I finally found the game!! I read this before but it ended where the MC went back home to earth! Please tell me this is an updated version?! Cuz I thought that was the end of the novel!
Holy sh-t! This was absolutely hilarious! I could not stop smiling and laughing at how absurd everything was! And the fact that it’s all being taken so incredibly seriously! It’s all so damn goofy, no offense. Idk, I’m straight, so I guess I can’t relate or something. The scene with Cassius and Alex was uh, I enjoyed it. Anyways, if you want a good laugh (for 10 hours straight) with some inappropriate parts sprinkled throughout, perfect game.
I could say that this game is perfect ... Ive cry several time ..... after playing "Extracurriculars" its just another mental break down for me seeing this game ended ...... i really really want more then that just please ... although might not be happening but the home screen's bgm hurts me whenever i hear it i really want those story never ends .... i whould play others sooner like the interea although Ive no idea is that after eight years or what
......
anyways again this game is incredible and i hope i have a partner like that but sadly i dont think might happend or maybe yes .. who knows ? the world may be bigger or smaller after all .... thanks Echo Project ...this year might end sad btut seriously i enjoy reading it thanks again ...
welp as after i watch the last part i felt that im kinda dumm sayin that but thanks xD
heyyy thanks for the reply yassss i know it after i finished the games sorry for letting u wait for a year before i reply xD cause i dont use itch io that much buttttt i found new games i think i will use it more often it also help me studyng my english xD
From the way everybody talks about this, I expected a whole lot more. It's not bad, it's even pretty clever at times, but most of it is a very by-the-numbers romantic drama with pretty average characters. Plot holes are pretty common and so is unnecessary conflict. 6/10
Not gonna BS you and say the MC ain't the lecturing type, but that doesn't change the fact that some of the stuff Marco said wasn't right. Honestly, I don't think he went far enough speaking out against all the messed up stuff on Adastra. Maybe it's because if he did, he wouldn't have much reason to actually love Amicus. Adastra and the wolven empire are a complete disaster.
'Course it's valid criticism. My point is more about how almost every VN I read has this same dynamic where the main character is always criticising the other people's culture. I've just never seen it actually handled in a way where it has any importance to the characters themselves. In Adastra it seems to just be a way to generate conflict without giving either Marco or Amicus personality traits or opinions that can be disliked.
Like, if you really want to say something about women's rights then have the guts to make it an important part of the story, bake it into Amicus and let Marco change his mind or something. Tell us why Marco cares about it so much that he'd be willing to try and change the culture of an entire planet to make it happen.
That being said, there's no reason why you need real life issues in a story like this. It's a human falling in love with a gay sci-fi Roman wolf. Just let it be about the characters, it's more than enough.
install the .tar.bz2 package and extract it to your games folder or desktop, your distro should come with an archive manager. go into your terminal, type "cd " and drag the folder into the terminal. press enter and then type "./Adastra.sh" that should open up the game
I made an account just to comment here - I mean this when I say that this is the best "book" that I've ever read. The writing is so f*cking good that this occupies a permanent place in my mind. I was eating in a Mediterranean Fusion restaurant and looked up to see olive vines. I was immediately reminded of Adastra and was filled with such a strong feeling of sadness and of happiness - my absolute love for this universe and the sadness that there is no more of it to consume. I do not doubt that it will be expanded and I can repeat playthroughs but the feeling of first going through the pages upon pages of text is equal to nothing.
Got peer pressured into playing this, but I don't regret it. This is the only game that has made me cry, and easily the best story I've ever seen in a game.
Is there a 'no-graphic-images' mode? Doesn't need to be a 'sfw' mode, I know the sex can sometimes be inextricable from the story and the themes, I'm just hoping for a mode where I don't actually need to look at the D if possible. Came here on the recommendation of a Patricial Taxxon video, and I'm super interested in this story-wise, but...
*shit actually peoples having adastra brainrot are like jojo fans and seeing refferences and ripoff everywhere. fbtw is the prime example due to its popularity. TBH some part of it given me vibes of it especially in the begining so i completly understand why peoples thought of it but since recent updates especially for patreons (because it's been almost a year public didn't got any update) it litterally has nothing to compare to it.
i have been crying over amicus for a week now, i promised myself that i would forget him but here i am crying, it truly shows how amazing this game is, although there's this one question i always had in mind that needs to be answered, will amicus and marco reunite? i want to know, i NEED to know.
Small detail, but the human count is 8 billion now compared to when Amicus asked MC how many humans lived here after saying how many wolvens lived. I have this game in my mind for years so immediately when I heard the world population is now 8 billion I thought of Adastra XD
You too, huh? I know Marco is supposed to be a self-insert, but I think the game is best played if you avoid self-inserting at all cost. Without getting too into spoilers, I made that mistake my first time around, and had the same issues you did. I think having Amicus not being the one who kidnapped you would go a long way in making him an appealing love interest. Given the comments, though, maybe that's the draw.
Hey soo i played the game all the way up to the hot springs part on android, but now that I've downloaded the latest version for windows i cant choose what chapter to start on is this fixable or am i just dumb lol
I've got a question about your menu, like the save and load screen and options screen, I've seen many other types of games with this same type of screen and was wondering if you use a certain system or app to make this game?
This is my first time playing a VN in a longgg time and i gotta say, this is the best introduction to VNs for someone that is fairly new to it! and i hope to see more with khemia and interea! ^^

I really like the look of Amicus in this. Simple is simply better! And the music too.
OMG, you won't understand what is "post-Adastra depression" until you play this game... masterpiece.
Amicus - best wolf ever.
That is if you hit the Fate Ending first. I did and I think it is a must when play (read?) this game.
Which is fate ending? (*﹏*;)

So it made me cry which is preposterous,
hence I shall now ask if there is a second ending that is similar to what the parents are speaking of - to prevent tears to once again fall.
Is this the end
Relly aww man pleas let this wonderful story end like that 😭😭
Who can teach me how to switch languages?Please！
Sadly there is only one language available if I'm not mistaken :(
Thank you for your help:)

"Make a furry VN without a judgemental, hypocritical MC lecturing everyone about equality" challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)
Not gonna BS you and say the MC ain't the lecturing type, but that doesn't change the fact that some of the stuff Marco said wasn't right. Honestly, I don't think he went far enough speaking out against all the messed up stuff on Adastra. Maybe it's because if he did, he wouldn't have much reason to actually love Amicus.

can someone dumb down the method to get this to run on linux for someone who's only ever operated windows?
install the .tar.bz2 package and extract it to your games folder or desktop, your distro should come with an archive manager. go into your terminal, type "cd " and drag the folder into the terminal. press enter and then type "./Adastra.sh" that should open up the game
just use the web version
don't need your help, Someone else ACTUALLY helped and web client is shit.
WOW your a meanie
no, I'm someone who asked for help and you provided no solution
Im come back to cry alot again I miss them so much I almost drop my phone cuz I cry alots is been 8 year they finally see each other im so glad
I have been waiting for the sequel, and I have played it again and again.😭
Interea is no sequel mate :D
It's a companion novel, it happens during Adastra, focusing on some of the events at the end of the game
I made an account just to comment here - I mean this when I say that this is the best "book" that I've ever read. The writing is so f*cking good that this occupies a permanent place in my mind.

I do not doubt that it will be expanded and I can repeat playthroughs but the feeling of first going through the pages upon pages of text is equal to nothing.
I know this is true for not just me when i say this: "I'm here to replay this for the 3rd time"
Got peer pressured into playing this, but I don't regret it. This is the only game that has made me cry, and easily the best story I've ever seen in a game.

(Haven't given it a dl yet)
I am NOT into this
But...
Since it's so popular ,crrated by the echo project,will traumatized you and is similar to FBTW I'm gonna play
Spitting straight facts
*shit
actually peoples having adastra brainrot are like jojo fans and seeing refferences and ripoff everywhere. fbtw is the prime example due to its popularity. TBH some part of it given me vibes of it especially in the begining so i completly understand why peoples thought of it but since recent updates especially for patreons (because it's been almost a year public didn't got any update) it litterally has nothing to compare to it.
Huh!?
WHY LEAVE US ON A CLIFFHANGER 😭😭😭😭😭😭
I don't really trust the parents but i do trust the monitor...
i have been crying over amicus for a week now, i promised myself that i would forget him but here i am crying, it truly shows how amazing this game is, although there's this one question i always had in mind that needs to be answered, will amicus and marco reunite? i want to know, i NEED to know.

Me personally, if I got kidnapped by such a wolf, I wouldn't react how this human did. :-\
You too, huh? I know Marco is supposed to be a self-insert, but I think the game is best played if you avoid self-inserting at all cost.

This is the first Furry VN that introduced me to the Furry VN world it's been almost 2 years now <3
How do I save in Android version of this game, when I'm trying to save it's saying error occurred
Hey soo i played the game all the way up to the hot springs part on android, but now that I've downloaded the latest version for windows i cant choose what chapter to start on is this fixable or am i just dumb lol
Yep, nevermind im just dumb lmaaoo
I just had a dream about Adastra, I think once you've got me there, you've done something right.

Thanks, tried to catch the whole "Cassius" personality.
I've got a question about your menu, like the save and load screen and options screen, I've seen many other types of games with this same type of screen and was wondering if you use a certain system or app to make this game?
