The cat is one hell of an Easter Egg. I absolutely loved the idea.

I really loved how quickly I was brought into this game! Very cool!
Sweet gameplay. Game art was engaging. Good take on the theme btw.
Wow, such an engaging story! I also love the aesthetics and the innovative take on the theme.
The level of detail here in the music, voice acting and art is amazing. The concept is great, its like la noir in reverse. your story really ties the mechanic in to the game. I did sometimes find it difficult to record short phrases. Great job!
Pretty good, game ! I enjoyed the theme and the gameplay was well-made!
This game feels so amazing. Wish it had more levels to do.
This is a really great game and i love the concept, for some reason it didnt work on my pc so i couldnt get past the tutorial but i really enjoyed the idea of it
THIS GAME HAS ITS PARTS SO WELL MADE IT ALL FLOWS SO NATURALLY, THE MUSIC, THE NOIR ATMOSPHERE, THE VOICE ACTING AND THE SIMPLE MECHANIC!
WOW! The concept itself and interpretation for the theme is really smart and cool, i love how the graphics, soundtracks and voices really blend well together, it really created that vintage feel, the game play is interesting and keeps you on your feet trying to connect lines that would sound like the perfect alibi, overall what a unique game that's fun to solve and the atmosphere it gives is really amazing, CONGRATS on such a well made game!
Amazing Game! Loved everything, the art, design, concept, mechanics and sound. This game looks really polished. Played every level and the CAT MODE is AWESOME! ヽ(=^・ᆺ・^=)丿
The only thing bugging me is when you have to record short words (like I & at) it just record the next word as well, maybe because I'm playing webGL.
Overall this game is really Well Done! Please keep developing this game in the future. ヽ(=^・ω・^=)丿
Feels very polished. Only some smaller phrases were very hard to get recorded, which was a pain in the ass. The idea is nice and innovative. I think a lot of people came up with the idea of casettes and rewinding, but nothing like this. Seems like you have a team behind this with all the voice acting and final polish.
Great game! I like the voice acting, art style, and the concepts to finding the hidden message. Would be cool to have a slow motion button on the recording. Had a hard time recording the small words. I probably have bad timing skills lol.
