Impressed by the dialogue. Says so much with few words.

The first half was not too easy and not too hard, and the second half added a twist and upped the challenge, still without making it too hard :-)

Great short story. Perfect length, perfect difficulty, and I enjoyed the plot twists.

Interested in iterating on the map in the future. Thanks for your observations! :-)

That's high praise. Thank you! :-)

Thanks for playing! Hope both our entries wear their inspirations on their sleeve.

Thanks! :-) Between us we've covered mystery games with big casts on both poles.

Thanks for dungeon crawling!

Thanks! I like to use few colours, and looking at your games it seems like you do too :-)

Excellent voice acting and graphics. Puzzles were just the right difficulty, and the game has a lot of variation in there. Only point of improvement I can think of is it takes a bit long to walk from place to place.

Great voice acting, and a strong mood thanks to the music. Adore the coloured fade-in effect on the text. I like the creative camera angles, though the pixel art is blurry and unsuited to closeups, and the sprites don't often cohere with the 3D environments. Gameplay-wise, the dialogue and voice acting sell the story more than the busywork does.

The drawings combined with the audio make the humour hit home for me. And the TV manual was delightful :-)

Good setting and graphics! I think you can see like, the ink on the  next page in the introductory letter texture? Everything about the place (the audio and the map and everything) is detailed and immersive. Filling in witness statements is flavourful and made me feel like a detective, though the fact that it's a simple reading comprehension test makes me wish it wasn't repeated ten times. My playthrough ended after I had filled in maybe half of them and I ran into the doctor's puzzle. I took one look at that beast and knew it wasn't for me.

I didn't mean it was a bad call because it's heavy. I think the game handles it poorly.

Never knew that launching stars into the sky could be so engaging. I think that making the game be about a suicide was an extremely bad call. Though the constellation anecdotes resonated with me.

This plays great and looks so great and sounds great. It's bonkers how many different fish there are, and hazards, and environmental elements. Plus the story going on in the facility is fun. It's kind of a bummer that losing takes you back to the start of the whole game, coz the end was too hard for me.

The graphics totally make this stand out a lot! Combined with the sound and the animated text and everything, it's so stylish and atmospheric.

I thought this was totally colourful and alive, and the exact kind of simple you want from this type of game. And the music completely sells it too!

Cute! The end made me smile :)

Excellent!

This one made me feel super cool. It looks great and plays great! I only wish the camera was zoomed out a bit to make it easier to move around without bumping into off-screen projectiles.

Lots of fun! The music for going fast made me want to wait to collect the fuel.

I actually enjoyed figuring out the rules of this one.
