Interesting concept. I got the suspect right first try. I could see this being expanded into a full game with branching stories and characters. Good job!

SaveYourTeacherPlayed and rated, amazing detective game!
I took all my time to try and figure out the murderer, but I wasn't able to guess!
**Contains spoiler** -> I was so sure it was between 2 choices, either S or L from everything that was said but wasn't expecting that ending :o
Had a great time playing and trying to figure out the real suspect!
The graphics look good, the sound effects nicely fitting, the text speed was great, the transcript was a great idea to be able to revisit everything at the same time (but could be improved by being separated with a title for each character), and the story was very well thought of and put together.
I don't really have any negative points. Except some polish like adding music, I find the game very well done and complete as it is. Great work for this game jam!
I'd appreciate if you try and rate my game as well!

Panda Spirit CGJThank you a lot for such detailed feedback, I really appreciate the time you took to write it down!
You were pretty close to guess who the killer was, it's mainly a matter of choices you make that will help you to find who the killer was.
Polishing is indeed something that needs a lot of time, as for the music I'm not good at composing so I tried to make only a very quick one you can hear at the begining and before shooting, but that's all I managed to make. ^^'
Played and rated! It's a cool game!
Don't forget to check my game and rating it, please.

EXPECTATIONNice game. The story is cool and well made. I'm really bad in this games so I killed an innocent, I thought I was right after hearing all the suspects but I must have missed something.
Tha graphics are cool, the sound fx are good too.
Nice entry!
It would be great if you'd check out our game too https://itch.io/jam/cgj/rate/477069

Tales of the Cursed WordI really loved the premise, but the story was a bit too predictable. The overall aesthetic was really nice, kinda reminded me of Papers Please.
Check out the game I worked on: https://itch.io/jam/cgj/rate/473783

WASD Corp.Rated - Really well made, I can tell a lot of effort went into this game! I like the text sound effect, and all the sprite art is great. I just finished watching Mind Hunter on Netflix, this reminded me of it haha. Awesome job! Please check out my game when you can.
Good day!Submitted
The Quest: Trapped in a LieLoved playing the game. Reminded me of a couple of games. Papers please, LA Noire. Loved the art style and sound FX especially that paper sound.
Just a small thing that bugged me was I played this game "Dirty". I played honestly in the first try and I thought I had the right person caught, but I was wrong so then I tried shooting everyone turn after turn and eventually got the right suspect. I suggest you put a condition that no one can be shot before being questioned, that's just my opinion. All in all I loved the game so much. Great job!
A very well made and interesting story. I like both the music and the graphics. With the theme in mind, I would have thought there have been more lies in there statements. Overall a good jam game. Well done.

Rail's basementThis is a really good game. I really enjoyed the game. Found the murderer eventually. I really felt like being a detective, remembering who said what, it was really fun. The artwork was on the point. The game play was smooth. The subtle sounds for each indiviual when talking was smart, it actually gave them a bit more of characteristics. Overall a really well made game.

My InfoI really love this type of games.
I think I broke it at some point though. because I tried to summon a suspicious and use the gun but I forgot the instructional dialogue at the beginning. So I lost the gun and had to refresh the page.
I think I missed something in the game because I can't find a relation with the title "The camera cannot lie".
I really like the art style. the game reminded me of Papers Please.
Great job!
Yes, you can make the gun disapear if you're too fast, however it's only a visual glitch: the gun is still here and if you click on it agin and click out, it'll appear back.
For the game's title, it is a quote that inspired me to do the game, I originally planned on adding a camera footage of the murder as an introduction but I didn't have the time to finish it.
I love the game's visuals. The story is very interesting, we really want to know who the murderer is. One of my favorite games for now. Well done =D
