pretty good! only got one ending so far but I like it . sometimes though even if I put in the right pairing it doesn't recognize that its right, IMO its only a minor setback do play it when you have the time!

Developer

We are very glad that you played! Thanks for the kind words!

"The detective mode" in the desktop version works more stable, there is a small problem with the described problem in html, but, in general, everything works :)

That was pretty fun!  I wish the relationship map could get more complex, like with multiple links to solve. What engine was that? I'm curious how to make my games playable by itch.. If I could change one thing about it, I'd add Play Again? button to the ending

Developer

Thank you very much for such a review!

The game engine is called Defold - cross platform game engine, it is not very popular, but very interesting.

Since we were dealing with the engine practically from scratch, we didn't have much time and had to release first version without "play again" button.

I think we will add this feature in the technical update!

I like this entry it was short and sweet.  Gave me a papers please vibe.   Played through it twice found 2 different endings not sure if there are more. 

I like the detective board connection mechanic  I just wish it would have been possible to draw more than one conclusion on the board. To give a more branching narrative.  Maybe you can I just missed it though.

Developer

Thank you for your feedback, it helps us a lot to understand what worked or what people liked or the flaws that people noticed, so thank you for sharing, and the fact that you beat the game twice is a cherry on top!

I really enjoy your little game, well done! =)
Here a bit Feedback
Positive:

  • Art Style is really nice
  • the concept is clever and enjoyable
  •  love the detective board mechanic
  • choices & multiple endings

Negative:

  • the beautiful art style is not consisten through the game (photo backgrounds), characters that seem in different stages of beeing finished
  • some text passage sound a bit weird and seem wrong (I´m not a native english speaker and I assume the Developer is too)
    • still the story comes accross and its understandable, still maybe a proofreader should go over text sometime if it is allowed from the jam rules
  • No Credits in the game itself ;)


Thank you for your hard work and neat little game =)

Thank you for playing the game, thank you for both positive and negative feedback, it helps us a lot! Thanks for your stream!

And you are right, English is not our native language, unfortunately, we did not have time to proofread the text. We posted the project at the last moment :)
