''The Arama Archives'' is a series of ''VideoGame/ProjectArrhythmia'' custom level collections by Aratonati. Branching off of the game's main story mode as an AlternateContinuity, it follows A-Tan and Hal as they continue to work in curing the [[TheVirus Tokyo Flu]]. With humanity's time running out, the two stumble across a map to an antigen that could rapidly speed up their efforts. However, it's not located in the supercomputer they've operated out of this entire time, but an external database: the titular Arama Archives.

''The Arama Archives'' is a series of ''VideoGame/ProjectArrhythmia'' custom level collections by Aratonati. Branching off of the game's main story mode as an AlternateContinuity, it follows A-Tan and Hal as they continue to work in curing the [[TheVirus Tokyo Flu]]. With humanity's time running out, the two stumble across a map to an antigen that could rapidly speed up their efforts. However, it's not located in the supercomputer they've operated out of this entire time, but an external database: the titular Arama Archives.
The series is made up of three collections of levels:
* ''[[https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1818632647 Melodical Escapism]]'': A prologue series that takes place during ''Project Arrhythima'''s main story, with relatively little deviation from it - A-Tan and Hal are training nanobots to fight the Tokyo Flu.
* ''[[https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1818642070 Ad-OwO-ble]]'': After finding a map to the antigen from Nowo, the FinalBoss of the previous collection, A-Tan and Hal venture into the Archives. They find a seemingly alive virtual world resembling Earth which is currently at war with an army of [=OwO=]s led by the cat Kitcat.
* ''[[https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2582017392 Spectral]]'': No longer sidetracked by the [=OwO=] invasion, A-Tan and Hal follow the map to the Spiral Mainframe - but after A-Tan mysteriously goes offline, Hal ventures as a nanobot into the Spectral Rift and runs into several bosses that block their path.
----
!! Along with tropes from ''VideoGame/ProjectArrhythmia'', The Arama Archives contains examples of:
* AllTheWorldsAreAStage: The final level of ''[=Ad-OwO-ble=]'', Aeolia, has attacks and enemies from every single level before it in the collection return as you fight your way through the [=OwO=] army to reach Kitcat.
* AdvancingWallOfDoom: Running My Head in ''Melodical Escapism'' makes use of one that forces you to follow the scrolling screen to avoid taking damage.
* BigBoosHaunt: Moonlight Sonata in ''[=Ad-OwO-ble=]'' is filled with damage-dealing "[=GhOwOsts=]" that fade in and out of view as they drift across the screen. According to the [[https://youtu.be/I9RjdbsRiso?feature=shared&t=471 official showcase video]], the level takes place in an abandoned mansion.
* BossOnlyLevel: Opia in Melodical Escapism, which features a fight against Nowo. On the other hand, Kitcat has a few different levels in [=Ad-OwO-ble=] including Right Meow, Meowchine, and I Said Meow.
** Every single level in ''Spectral'' is one, making the collection a BossGame.
* ChekhovsGun: Midway through ''Ad-[=OwO=]-ble'', [[spoiler:the player passes by a shelf full of "space milk" while on the way to destroy the [=OwO=] Spray in the Space Mart. Near the end of the collection, in the level Meowter Space, Kitcat pulls out some space milk and drinks it to power up - revealing that the spray was a distraction from its real superweapon.]]
* CuteButDeadly: The main premise of ''[=Ad-OwO-ble=]'', with it even being mentioned in its {{Tagline}}. Kitcat and company are all based on a "cute" emoticon, but are still very much dangerous.
* FinalExamBoss: Nowo, the FinalBoss of ''Melodical Escapism'', almost exclusively uses attack patterns from earlier levels in the collection during their fight.
* ShoutOut: ''Melodical Escapism'' is one to the rhythm game ''VideoGame/MelodysEscape''. All of its levels use songs that were included in it, excluding the final level Opia.
* SourceMusic: In ''Spectral'', Koto is playing the piano in the song for her level Cleyera on a small piano she carries around during the fight.
