Sad story and good game.

Really nice atmospheric game. Great art direction. I like the writing. Gameplay in this game is not something great or innovative, but I think in this case it was made to work for the story, and it does it job. I really want more

This was truly enjoyable :)! Congrats! The highest rating for me so far. I really dig the art direction, very cinematic. Even with nice credits at the end! The black and white obviously fits the noir theme and it works very well. We have done this in our game EUR01 as well ;). But then with a more literal take on the theme. You have a nice link with the theme, but not too obvious.

That was a really tight and polished experience from start to finish! Clever use of the black and white and lighting to create an efficient workflow and recognizable visuals!

JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH...THIS WAS MADE IN A WEEK?!

Mate, you need to release stuff on Steam. The graphics, the story, the audio, the aesthetic, the polish, hell, YOU EVEN INCLUDED A GAME WITHIN A GAME. Most people struggle to finish 1 in a week, and you made a little minigame as well?!

My only complaint is that I legit want more of this. I don't know if it has multiple endings, it doesn't seem like it, but I want to know how this story continues. So badly.

Massive friggin kudos dude. This is incredible.

Wow, really nice looking and well polished. Loved the easter eggs, especially the Big Smoke reference in the beginning lol.

Really great design and atmosphere, I'd have loved to spend more time in each location, and I'd totally follow any updates on this project.

Cool Feel , nice polish.

Absolutely love the style, the noir, the writing, and the gameplay was pretty cool. It would've been nice if the protagonist weren't gendered so I could imagine myself in their shoes a little bit more, but otherwise 10/10!! Would've been cool if the noir font was also used for the UI :)

Very polished game with a great atmosphere! Very well put together story game. My only remark is that it's a bit simplistic in its mechanics, would love to have a just a bit more freedom. But hey, 8 days is 8 days, right?

Good job!

Cool noar story! Very impressive work with PC inside game)

Really really love this game :D. The music, the art, the story, the light,... everything fits well with the theme!! The best game I have played in the jam so far! But, I think we need another ending(or maybe I miss it). And also some run button will be great!
