You arrive without canon history.
The NerveGear scans your face and name. From that point, the game records the person you become.

Aincrad, floor by floor
No game has covered Aincrad top to bottom, floor 1 through 75. The ones that exist skip floors, or put you next to Kirito instead of in his place. We're building the one where you start on day one of the death game and live it yourself.
The person inside Aincrad is you.
No borrowed history, no place beside Kirito, and no fixed route to floor 75.
Floor 1Your decision
Who trusts you
What a guild owes
What reaches floor 75
02
Choices become world state.
Who you fight beside, what you learn, and who you tell carry into later floors.
03
A cleared floor does not close.
Shops keep trading. People remember. Unmapped corners, skipped quests, and promises give you reasons to walk back down.
03Unreached
02Unreached
01Cleared · still active
One complete floor before seventy-five partial ones.
Combat is first person and real time, built in Godot. The art aims at the anime rather than photorealism.
- I
Phase 0 · vertical slice
Floor 1, end to end
The Town of Beginnings through the first boss clear. The floor every later one has to match.
- II
Phase 1 · canon floors
Expand through Aincrad
Canon floors first. Then we fill the gaps without losing the branches players already made.
- III
Phase 2 · the final gate
Reach floor 75
The death game ends here. Who's still beside you by then is the whole point.
Required work is paid. Optional work stays optional.
Enemy models, animation sets, environment kits, and music are commissioned when a floor cannot ship without them. Side quests, dialogue, props, ambient variation, tools, and documentation remain volunteer work.
