Nice game with great sfx, art and music. The game crashed when I tried to go outside with the chef.

Great art style choice! I really like point-and-click games and this hit the spot. Overall feels like a polished game. I will have to go back to this and play it through a little more.

My Cup of TeaIn the end, it's always the butler, isn't it? One of the most clichés reinvented. Really liked the whole adventure, the most difficult part was to get the mechanical eye, but it was worth it. The art style is "simple" but fits very well, love all the walk loops, especially the cleaning lady one. Music and sound is great also. An interesting adventure, kudos!

A Little Bird Told MeThis is really fun! I love the switching characters mechanic. The music and sounds are all great, it all looks really cohesive. Black and White totally works for this. I couldn't figure out what to do with the rope... If you can give me a hint I'll definitely come back and try to finish.

Shot In The DarkI really enjoyed that! I liked the various murder mystery tropes and clichés you had in there. I managed to complete it although it took me a while to find where to use the rope; perhaps you could convey that better with an obvious anchor point or something. Loved the art style and the music and the voice acting fitted it well. Some obvious bugs, but nothing that was too distracting. Great entry!

Knight In Shining ArmourHey nice game overall!
I liked the art style and the puzzle was straightforward for the most part. It was hard for me to find how to unlock the cleaning lady. I dont want to spoil things but i think i found the solution after i quit the game. I might try that again to see if it works!
There were a couple things that could be done better, like transitioning between screens, some collisions like the player slipping down the stairs sometimes but nothing major for me.
Good job on that, and keep it up!

Everything! (but the kitchen sink)Hah, I like the theme interpretation, the character graphics, and the audio! I got as far as unlocking the cleaning lady but managed to get stuck after right-clicking by accident while there was still a message up about the door being locked—after that nothing I clicked would make the character-select menu close or the door message close, so I couldn't really do anything. I'm curious how it plays out, though, so I might return to this later.
Nice job on your first jam entry!
