Great mechanic. These started simple and got so wicked hard. The character voice was good--it definitely sounded like an old noir film (side note: Double Indemnity would work just great in this format). The implementation is pretty rocky, especially that the Reset button on some of the later levels restarts the entire game, but I know you were trying to build something real tricky in Ren'Py and that must have been difficult. Nice job overall!
