If you fail to find the murderer everyone in the village will mutate together and if you catch the murderer their hands will be chained together i know its a stretch but i came up with the idea at 4 in the morning

Love the art style

Weird and wonderful! The 2d characters in a 3d environment remind me of parappa the rapper. Controlling the camera was a bit fiddly though.

No worries, it did make me feel a little dazed and disorientated which I'm sure was how you felt at 4 in the morning. So in a way it fit the games tone perfectly! XD

This game feels like a 4AM fever dream, and I absolutely love it. If only I got to have a bowl of that stew…

i chose the idea at 4 am and didn’t sleep the entire time so it pretty much is

I liked that you have a  surprise cut scene! Us murder mystery games gotta stew together.

I just wanna share that I said to myself "Well let's see what's in stew for us here"

Very cool idea. And, I don't mean any offense by this, but the graphics are hilarious. You got a real good chuckle out of me on a few occasions, so kudos for that.  Murder Mystery on a time loop is a great idea too, though indeed stretching the theme as you note. 

Either way, fun game. I was not able to find the proper clues to find the murderer in my first attempt, which was prematurely cut short because I accidentally hit enter instead of 'e' when I meant to talk to someone. I may go in for a second loop later though.

yeah...  because of timezones it was 4 am and i chose a really bad idea that doesnt fit the theme and when i had realized it was bad i had already put so much effort into it
