IMPORTANT NOTICE
If you are playing with a graphics tablet, make sure you press F11 to enter non-stretched full screen mode otherwise pressing ALT will change window focus!

What if a fluke accident brought your art to life? Use various art tools to defend Aria from corruption as you collect energy to restore her artwork. Play using your mouse, a graphics tablet or touch screen!If you're playing the WebGL browser version make sure to use the fullscreen button / press F11 in Chrome! The game is intended to be played in 1920x1080 resolution. There is an intended delay to the mouse tracking, but if it is feeling impossible check the calibration feature in the option screen.
This game was originally created for the GameDev.tv 2023 Game Jam with the theme of 'Life in two dimensions'. It has received two major updates since then but you can still play a GameJam based version in the options featuring the original art, dialogue and stages.

もし偶然の事故であなたのアートに命が吹き込まれたとしたら？様々なアートツールを駆使してアリアを破損から守り、彼女のアートワークを修復するためにエネルギーを集めよう。マウス、グラフィックタブレット、タッチスクリーンを使ってプレイしよう！WebGLブラウザ版をプレイする場合はフルスクリーンボタンを使用するか、ChromeでF11キーを押してください。このゲームは1920x1080の解像度でプレイすることを想定しています。マウスのトラッキングには意図的な遅延がありますが、不要だと感じた場合はオプション画面のキャリブレーション機能をチェックしてください。
One Voiceはもともと2023 GameDev.tv Game Jamの一環として制作されました。ゲームジャムのテーマは「Life in two dimensions」（二次元の命）で、PixelDrakeとZzzabloによって10日間で作られました。それ以降、フィードバックを元に継続的な開発が続き、何度もアップデートを重ねてきました。当時のアリアのアート、ダイアログ、ややアンバランスなステージだったオリジナルのゲームジャムバージョンは、ほぼそのままの形で今でもオプションで選択してプレイすることが可能となっております。
One Voiceを楽しんでいただければ幸いです！私達が取り組んでいる他のゲームやアートプロジェクトについては、Twitterでフォローしてください！

Congratulations on the ver 1.0 release!
I like that not only mouse but also pen tablet and touch screen are recommended. I enjoyed operating with a mouse, but I played with a pen tablet from ver 1.0. I was impressed by the very good feeling of operation.
I hope more people will play this game because the fun and exhilaration of this game is the best that can be found anywhere else!
ver 1.0 My impression of the gameplay is that the second half of the game is so difficult that it requires a great deal of familiarity and control skills, but since the difficulty can be lowered in the options, I think it is fine as it is. I was not able to clear the game without lowering the difficulty level in the options at first, but now that I have practiced more, I am able to clear the game without lowering the difficulty level. I was very happy when I was able to clear the game for the first time, and I was also very happy that I was able to protect Aria in the story.
I was a little bothered by the fact that the music of the last stage was cut off in the middle of the performance.
I also noticed that at the end of the second to last stage, the sound of the music "clomping" and the sound of the enemy being defeated were linked!
Aria, the idol of the cyber world, was very cute.
Gameplay was quite challenging when using only the brush tool, but once the line tool was introduced, its convenience and the style of quick switching and manipulation with the number keys was exhilarating and kept the adrenaline flowing at full speed.
During the game, there were times when I accidentally hit Reset and the tool did not work immediately afterwards.
I also made a video of the game, but didn't realize until near the end of the game that I had made a mistake in the capture range.
But it was a really fun game and very exciting to play. Thanks for the chance to meet you and Aria!
And I feel this game system is really excellent. I think it could be used as a music game where you rhythmically erase targets to various songs, or it could be used as a playable music video for idols like Aria.
Thank you so much for playing our game! It was very enjoyable to watch your playthrough. I will make sure that the reset button is clearer in an update!
さらに、ごめん！このゲームはめっちゃ難しい！そのプレイスルーはすごっく上手でした！
Thanks for the compliment on play through!
This piece is fun to play through, but it is also visually pleasing. Just looking back at my One Voice play through is fun! I look forward to hearing more about it!
What game am I playing? this is super duper awesome game! I'm really hooked to it. The game is super hard but really satisfying with music and mechanic. I like how the features being introduced in the story. That is superb! Great job guys!
