Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney: Truth and Justice


When Apollo Justice returns to the courtroom for his third year of being a defense attorney, a fatal mistake is made during his first case back on the job. The result of the case weighs heavily on his mind, making him question everything he thought he knew.

Throughout the events that transpire, Apollo's beliefs are thrown into question as he decides which is more important: the truth, or justice? The law agrees "all murder is equal", but is this the truth? The law agrees "guilty until proven innocent", but is this justice?


Intro to the game:

I know there are a few typos and a few other niggles in regards to some animations being off, but rest assured these are all going to be fixed

Thoughts and impressions on the dialogue/humour would be nice! I'll keep this updated as I go along. :apollo:

Let's see...

Well,first of all,you need to add more information about the case in the first post,at least a summary of the plot of the game.

Also,I think you need to post this AAO,too,since the engine is not that much well-received outside the forums.

About the game itself...

Spoiler:
    -You should add more lines before Apollo introduces himself.
    -The lobby scene was okay,but I think you should make it a little longer.
    -Ok...I...certainly didn't expect that.
    -Oh,so it was just a joke...since when did the judge become such a troll?
    -The judge didn't ask if the defense or the prosecution were ready.
    -Why do I get a feeling that Ema being somewhere is important,somehow?

Overall,I think this case looks kinda interesting,and I know it's just a demo,so things may change when the case is actually released,but you need to give us a bot more info.Also,are you going to use stock sprites for the characters,or will you use your original sprites?
Signature loading, please wait...

I was thoroughly impressed, I think you captured their personalities pretty well, along with the humor, but as cesar said, improvements CAN be made.

EDIT: I see you brought back the "payne + lovers" case running gag... nice!

Thanks for your comments, guys! Constructive criticism is extremely useful, and if others on the forum could comment and add ideas/changes that should be made, it'd be very helpful. I want to make this project as good as possible.

Firstly, in regards to little information being given in the OP, I've added a general summary of the game. Hopefully, this will give you an insight into the "feel" of the game and the "theme" that I am going for. Actual details of cases will change (hence why I'm not putting concrete information on there, since as it may change it can be misleading) but I'm comfortable putting up the summary for now.

Also, whilst it's being made in AAO, I'll probably end up making a PyWright version as well when I get round to it (I know how PyWright works so it won't be an issue remaking it for that). I'm going to make an AAO thread once case 1 is finished, too. Just thought I'd ask C-R's denizens how they felt about the project first :)

Yeah, now you mention it, Apollo introducing himself straight away does seem a little off. I guess I can switch around the statements, so him talking about how it hasn't been too long since his last case which left an impression on him could come before that? Then he could say "Oh, by the way, my name is Apollo Justice." and the rest of the introduction, and then Trucy appears, and so forth...

As for the judge, he just wanted a little bit of fun because he wanted to join in on all the courtroom antics he's had to suffer thanks to Phoenix and Apollo. It's also an admittedly artificial way of establishing that this project is going to be lighthearted, as opposed to being all grim and dark like some fan games have been (which is absolutely fine, and a lot of them are great, they're just not my style).

Ah, yes, the defense being ready thing... I will definitely add that in. For some reason, it completely slipped my mind.

The fact Ema was even mentioned as being away has to be important, if you think about Ace Attorney tradition. They never mention a character by name unless they are relevant to some point of the game. It'd be weird mentioning Ema without her ever appearing. The Ace Detective's Conference is also going to play a large part in the second case, that's all I can say, I don't want to spoil anything...

And the sprites are being left to the last moment. At the moment, while I'm doing the statements and having everyone testify, I'm just going to be using placeholder sprites.

I agree with everything you say! But I just would implore you to keep that Judge thine, I agree about the "grim dark" stuff, though.
Re: Fancase Series - Apollo Justice: Truth and JusticeTopic%20Title

Just a quick update:

Development on the AAO version has been cancelled, and development is moving over to PyWright fully. It's much quicker to make in PyWright plus feels more authentic.

Also announcing that case 2 will be called

"Turnabout She Wrote"

It's set in Europe, during the Ace Detective's Conference. A familiar attorney and Ema Skye set out to uncover a sinister secret behind the murder of a famous detective.
Re: Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney: Truth and JusticeTopic%20Title

Another quick update:

I've managed to get someone on board for composing songs for the game. This means the game will be almost entirely original songs (From Objection to Pursuit to Cross-Examination to Court music etc). They're made specifically for this game but with Ace Attorney in mind thematically (some songs are inspired by other songs but none are anywhere near remixes). So far I'm really pleased with the songs that have been provided and you'll get a chance to see what they're like in case 1 in a few weeks!

Well I wish you luck!

If you would like, I wouldn't mind beta testing it for you.

If you need to know, I have beta tested:

Phoenix Wright: Encounter with the Black Organization
Reservation for Turnabout
Angela Light: Ace Attorney
Re: Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney: Truth and JusticeTopic%20Title

Sounds good - Once I am finished to a level where I feel like it's ready for beta testing I'll drop you a PM.

Also OP has been updated with a link to a new version of the intro and showcasing it in PyWright :) It shows off the brand new Court Begins theme and the new Cross-Examination music made for this game!

Still using some Dual Destinies music as placeholders for the time being though.
