User guide
Story
As our heroine finally reaches the foot of the stairs that will take her to paradise, a mysterious door to hell appears and takes her soul. Unable to present herself in paradise without a soul, our cursed little girl sets off in search of this door.
The gameplay of Janua consists of "modifying" the scenery so that our heroine can access the end of the level; you must trace the path to a door using a small pencil.
The main game contains the game engine and pack management. The Portal Edition includes the "Janua Season 2" pack.
Loading new stories
Janua+ Portal Edition is the new game engine that allows you to load scenario packs.
Use the new icon in the menu to load new stories. Each pack placed in the "pack" folder of Janua+ can be loaded from this icon. (This version includes the "Janua Season 2" pack.)
Each pack contains: an intro, 7 levels, an end, a personal save keeping your progress.
You can switch from one pack to another without restarting the game, and without losing your progress in each scenario (unlocked levels and collected stars are automatically saved).
