That feeling when you know which one it is but.. your aim is so bad that you kill everyone during the process of targetting him. 🥺

The idea is great and works good. It's just so difficult to find the poisoner. Perhaps it would be easier, if there was a really really small indication. Like the guy moving his arm for one or two frames when poisoning someone.

Developer

The trouble with that is then it would be too easy. It is really supposed to be difficult, and you DEFINITELY aren't supposed to get it on the first try. A small indication might be a good idea if I could make it small enough, which would be hard. All in all, good idea in theory, probably would not work in practice.

Sadly, I am unable to play your game because my comp found it as malware/virus.

This is really cool, reminds me of my old game with a similar concept where one guy kills everybody and you have to find out who it is, but this is playable (and my concept wasn't). Really creative! Also not sure how many people will play this because both of my anti-viruses have flagged it as a "TROJAN" and i had to manually turn both of them off to play.

Developer

Thank you for the compliment. I find the antivirus thing strange because I put it through SEVERAL scanners and they found nothing. This is very interesting, but I promise I did not build malware into it.

Host

When I saw that you've used python I knew windows will probably flag it as a virus, im using windows defender and malwarebytes, they both said it was a trojan. The game is really hard btw, I don't think I ever managed to get the murderer on the first try.

Malwarebytes said it was good for me, and windows defender... well... is windows defender. Also, It is supposed to be hard, and I only got it on the first try like twice ever. Thank you for the feedback tho. Much appreciated.

edit: malwarebytes found malware only in the version downloaded from here, not my copy. Something fishy is happening.
