Alright, finally got around to playing this - I couldn't get too far because once I hit the 28th nothing loaded, unfortunately. Still, I got through one case, and it was fun!

Absolutely love the aesthetic and the overall style - I did a double-take that it was in Ren'Py and thought that it had been done in Unity for a few moments there, before double-checking the icon. It's sleek as hell, and I love all of the transitions and animations. I also loved that it took into account things like if I showed up super late to the scene of the crime or gave myself a male name. I hope that your choice of appearance affects minor dialogue too; I really liked that mechanic.

I did get quite a few bugs while playing it - a few variables showed up in dialogue boxes as the variable name rather than their actual values, and a few times I opened up a screen and couldn't get out of it. I also clicked on a few of the contradictions and the dialogue didn't reflect what I'd clicked on for the second option. Probably the biggest bug, though, was that if I talked to Nicole/Ariel (the name changes?) on my phone at the start of the game, and chose "Can I copy yours?" the entire game crashed and I had to rollback.

Bigger issue though - I'm too damn dense to solve the case! I had a theory about the murder (poisoned ice cubes) but I didn't really get any information which leaned in that direction...which probably just means that I'm wrong. I accused Clara in the end since she was hiding that she'd made the tea, and predictably was wrong, but still, I had fun thinking about it. I'll definitely go back and try to solve the case again!

Overall I had a great time with the game - I'll be keen to keep an eye on it as it evolves!

That's such great feedback! Thank you so much! It's all in a janky dough-like state but I'm pumped for pushing onwards.

Its a bit of a Goliath of a project logistically and I'm so glad you rolled back through the crashes... there are many in there, I'm sure and I'll endeavour to defeat them all one day. 

There is however, no bread. Literally unplayable.

In that case, guess it's time for Detective Bread to be the one solving the cases ;)
