Other comments (Code / Art / Sound / Audio)
Spacey created ALL of art, NONE of sound effects, ALL of music.

Music was half created before jam, concept art, worldbuilding, and brainstorming happened before jam.

Snail prototyped one of the minigames before the jam.

Did you enjoy the jam? Is there anything you'd change if you could start over?
Spacey enjoyed the jam, and Spacey would start even earlier next time.

Aren't you awesome for being creative and taking part?

Yes

A very NOIR game! It was really on point in terms of the writing, the visuals, the dialogue and the story conclusion. I enjoyed that I unexpected learned more things about bugs during my playthrough. I think maybe having one easy example of "finding a clue" before the main level could help players know what they are going to be doing / expected feedback when you've done it right. 

Such a great entry overall, far too polished for the likes of a jam! I think the dialogue (text) system was nice and clean too; the game on the whole pieces together perfectly!

Beautiful game, very unique & stylised world you have created and the animation is nice. The dialogue could be simpler but that is probably just my taste. 👍

Noooooo, where’s the 4 hours of gameplay? I was cheated out of 3 hours.

This game. I loved it! So simple, yet so polished. That transition is amazing. It took me a minute to figure out I could drag the scene up and down. I guess I should’ve paid more attention to the trailer. Found myself wanting to use the scroll wheel to move up and down. So happy I could’ve experienced this little masterpiece. Thank you
