Developer

Really cute game, I loved exploring the area and getting +1 clues for everything i could find! I really liked how things would fade in to view when entering different areas of the same room, it really helped with the exploration side of things, which I am a sucker for :') I was going to mention the music but it has been mentioned before so i'll leave that, but overall good game :)

Thanks  for the feedback.As I am sure you know feedback to a game developer is the best thing one could ask for,

Great little game, I liked the fading mechanic, it made me want to expore everything more. I also liked that you took the time to come up with a nice story and used lots of different bits from the asset pack. I enjoyed playing.

After going inside from the crime scene and interviewing the family I left the house again and couldn't get back in and couldn't find anything outside. Perhaps I missed something? Also, the music being the same 3 notes over again got very repetitive very quickly, but I see you addressed that issue below.

Good job!

Developer

Huh that's weird i made it so that you could'nt leave the house again.Anyway did you make it to the car chase?As it was in the end and if u faced this issue I am thinking u never made it there.

Unfortuantely not, I got stuck back outside again. Not sure how it happened, will probably give it a replay later and not go back through the door :)

Developer

Did u interrogate all 3 suspects.Cause I made it so it will automatically take u to the car chase if u found 7 or 8 clues i think.

Submitted

Only got 2 of them before I left

That was a fun little game.
The fading effect of the unused object didn't allway work well for me.
(I even bumped into a wall I couldn't see once.)
It wasn't game breaking at all and it sometimes looked really great.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback

This is the first entry I've seen using the monochrome one and it's very fitting I think. I reaaaaally hate the music though, sorry - it's like three notes that keep repeating and it's very off putting :D A toggle would've been nice :D

I really like the mechanic that stuff only appears once you get close and I love that you can investigate almost everything. It's a really creative approach and I would love to see a more fleshed out version of that mechanic!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback.I actually made the music randomize it's notes but due to a silly mistake in gamemaker (I have to always write randomize()) the notes never changed.

Developer

I also wanted to know because there is no criteria for music will my points be reducted somewhere else.

Submitted(+1)

I usually don't rate music at all unless it's very very good because I myself suck at it and usually never include it. So in my personal ratings, I usually disregard music :D
