I really like the idea, it is a very original gameplay for a detective game, and the level of polish is impressive for 3h. The visuals are very clear and efficient, although minimalistic it creates a nice admosphere.

An excellent aesthetic and fun gameplay!

The scenario and idea are quite interesting, never played a game like that! And great job in such a short time!

Game fits the theme well. Mechanically simple to understand, difficulty curve is well balanced so it doesn't feel unfair. The movement glitches due to being a Web build are a bit frustrating, but understandably outside of your control.

How many levels are there? I keep dying at level 5.

Developer

Thank you! Yes bit frustrating but WebGL doesn't seem to like handling moving UI elements as everything else was fine. There's a total of 10 different cases and it loops after that, getting to that point is difficult anyway especially with the lagging.

The concept is easy to understand and it's funny very fast.  Furthermore, your visuals are very polished. Well Done 👍

Really cool concept, probably the best I tried so far. Would be interesting to add more dynamic to it but with the time you did manage, great job!

Developer

Thank you! I had some further ideas like missing certain words to make it more complex but yeah time was a killer

I thoroughly enjoyed this, what a great concept! The gameplay is simple and satisfying to get right and the narrative that unlocks in the words is the cherry on top. I think this would fit very well as a minigame in an indie game where you play a spy or something, its very repeatable and I think can be expanded to add complexity (by adding more keys/ having hold interactions etc.) 


Great job! It's a great comprehensive package!

Developer

Thanks! Yes I had further ideas to make it more complex but no time lol

this is nice lol. Would be awesome if you add something like having to skip some messages or something like that

Developer

Thank you!
