Cool game, I like the style and the little world you built. I couldn't figure out how to progress after I got a couple clues, but I did try a few times because it was quite a compelling experience! Great work, and with a little more time I think you would have a really neat little detective experience. Good job :)

Thanks!

The plan was to actually build a case file menu to act as the pause menu.  Giving you things like objective, clues, and controls.

Submitted

The visuals are cool, and the music is really great. The idea is cool, although the objective fades away probably too soon. I got distracted a second and it was already gone. Nice job overall!

Thanks!

I wanted to implement something like a case file menu that shows everything instead of it all sitting on screen, but real life gets in the way a lot and I couldn't make it in time.  The fast fading is the act of last minute additions not going so well.

looked nice on loading, got a nice stair case with the title of the game, then that was it. Can't seem to do anything. Mashed every button I could think of.

Developer

The UI buttons to start aren't there? Or the game itself wouldn't let you move?

Loaded it up aaannddd....I forgot to enable the UI after getting the new screenshot I needed.  Building and uploading a new version with fixed menu.

Submitted

Pretty cool idea, a little hard to find some of the clues but I managed to get the killer anyway on my second try.

Developer

Thanks!

One of the things that glitched out before submission was their particle effects. Not so much a glitch as I forgot to set them all to play on awake (my brain is the glitch). Originally they were supposed to sparkle a bit to give you a sense of what to look for. I'm hoping to fix it tonight.
