Very nice! I love the feel of the game, and the art is great. I did get stuck on the part where I talked to the fly and needed to give him other evidence, but otherwise, great game! :D

Interesting title, very cute characters and the game made me giggle few times. Nice that there’s a cutscene. There’s a type “my darling was as sweAt as a nectar” Jumps from exploring to next room are too abrupt. Please write on your page the controls because I did read them in the game, but there’s no way to check again how to do something (specifically, using the evidence into the dialogue).
thank you for enjoying it and thank you for your comment regarding writing the controls, we will be adding it now. Regarding the writing we ran out of time to write the dialogue, so we just had to write it quickly, it's why there are some writings that isn't connected later. hopefully we will take this into account when we continue working on this game.
Great art and a great setting/story. I was intrigued to get the investigation on, sadly I got stuck in a conversation with the fly detective. I don't think I had the right evidence but I couldn't escape the dialogue. I may have missed something though. Still a cool game and very creative premise. Well done!
the discussion system is a bit tricky because we wanted the game to be mystry solving, so when you take the evidence and match it to the right counterpoint. trust me when you know how it works you'll find the game even more enjoyable like we inted it to be, and hopefully we will explain it even better later on. thank you for your feedback
The evidence mechanic is really interesting, hopefully this can be expanded into a full game. If it does, I would suggest reworking the backgrounds to make them darker so they fit the noir theme better. It just feels a bit weird to come across perfectly lit rooms on a murder mystery set in a subterranean bug city.
Cool art, cool detective bug! I'd like to hear some sounds in that game, that would be amazing!
This is a really interesting concept that I think has a lot of potential. I will definitely enjoy coming back and seeing it when it's even more polished. I think you did really well to get it to this point in such a short time. Very memorable story and characters!
Interesting detective game. The story is nice and catchy. I would like to see it with a bit more polish.
The game is great but it lacks sound and music so i can't get fully get imersed in the story. Also i couldn't get past the landlord conversation, it's unclear what i have to do. It seems to lack animations to give the game life.
