In what way does your game fit the theme?
We interpreted "rewind" as going back in your own memory and remember things. If you press one of the rewind buttons on the top left of the screen while you are answering a question, it takes you back to the room you saw, letting you see more details
Did you write most of the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes we did. The audio, the letter fonts and the rewind camera effect were downloaded for free, and they were free to use. Everything else was made by us.

The game is something ive never seen done before.
Amazing parts:
-Love the sound whenever you get the answer wrong( It will give me nightmares for quite a long time)
-Love the settings and how in place everything looked
-Character jiggling was really funny to see
Things Id want improved:
- The rewind buttons seemed out of place
-The answers could have been made in a different way which is more eye pleasing but i still like the fingerprints
I don't have a lot of ideas to get it improved but definitely would play this outside game jam just for the fun of it.
ur game was cool and different from others!!!
This graphics are so fun! I like to see this art style. The theme and the dialogues are really great!
Nice work!
Thanks for playing! Glad you liked it!
Happy to hear it!
If you have time, check our game too!
Have a good night~
I guess Ill be a game developer then LOL
BTW game was really fun, thumbs up!
Thanks for playing! :)
I'm a big fan of these kinds of graphics and animation, and although i have my own trouble with memory, this is the type of game i can see myself enjoying and upon playing it i can confirm that, i also like the design for the choices and the concept for the theme is well-interpreted, i'll definitely keep playing this again and again to help improve my memory and just enjoy the game in itself
Really glad you liked it that much! Thanks for playing :)
The graphics and animations are great, fitting music and sounds and I didn't seem to run into any bugs either. The rewind mechanic is pretty interesting, probably one of the better uses of the theme that I've seen so far
Really happy you think is one of the better uses of the theme, we think so too! :) Thanks for playing!
Awesome game, interesting idea, nothing much to say, good job!
really good retro graphics, nice sound design! perfectly fit to the theme.
overall pretty polished memory game, good job!
I found the graphics hilarious. I loved how the guy slapped the desk when you get an answer wrong. The music was cool and fitted the detective style well.
The theme was kind of subtle however.
Overall it was a very fun game and I hope you continue working on it!
Thanks for playing!
I really liked the PS1 Style graphics and it also made me laugh a lot! Great job :D
The game was really cool and audio really fits the detective theme, cool game
very fun game i enjoyed the sound effect when he hit the table alot and i liked the way you did the graphic not that they were tripple a but they all fit in very good all in all good job :)
The stress and overall experience is great. This genuinely feels like a detective game, and could be taken so much further. I'd suggest that instead of limiting the number of rewinds a player can use, limit their rewinds in a more creative way. My suggestion would be to give the player a really short amount of time on the initial sweep, and every single rewind will just be tracing their steps exactly. If their initial sweep is garbage, so will their replays. Force the player to get really good at looking for important details in a short period of time.
Thanks! Great feedback
Decent game. I'm not that great with memorizing a room, so this definitely was not a game for me haha, but it might be good for someone else! The detective was pretty funny though!
Very nice work done here! Love the aesthetic, and the twist you people went for. Difficult game, but rewarding to play!
Thanks for playing! :P
Love the graphic on this- the low poly models with the realistic faces looks awesome! And the animations are fantastic- the bartender's head following you was especially cool. I'm horrible at remembering things so I got yelled at, but I was happy to try again in a new room! I loved it.
Glad you liked them! We put a lot of effort into them, so we are happy you liked them.
We will call the boss so he tries to fix our detective behaviour... He can't yell at people like that... :P
Thanks for playing!
Loved the audio and 3D graphics! It was definitely a fun twist on the theme and I'd like to see where the game could go in the future!
Thanks for playing! Hope you had a good time^^
HAHAHAHAH it is funny when the detective gets mad .... Loved the Jazz music (it's amazing).
Great game!!
Thank you! :P
I loved this game! It had amazing style, the music fit with the graphics very well
I've beaten it on the second playthrough :D
I hope you will add more levels to it post jam
We might do so! Thanks for playing! The game changes everytime you play, so feel free to play it more than once :)
Yee I've just started playing it for the third time XDD
Really, a lot of replayability with random scenes. I love it
lol I made him mad in the first sit thing I said. I like the 3d animation and pretty good tweak to the theme as a memory game. Nice job.
Thanks for playing! Yeah we love the animations our detective has.
He has really bad anger issues he needs to fix...
