About this game
Always on is an interactive short story that can be played through in roughly 1 hour. You play as Leya, an AI assistant to the 7 year old Evie. This little girl will test your abilities as well as your boundaries. 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.
