A deduction game with beautiful handdrawn characters within 4 days of game jam? Yes, please! The literal take on the scale theme is great to be combined with the deduction mechanic. Enjoyed going through the little story of every character. Enjoyed your game so far. :)
Great game and great characters! the only thing kinda bad was that towards the end i could just called the bluff on every single statement without much reasoning.
Thanks for reviewing! Yeah, makes sense, the idea is that you have a limited amount of feathers with which you can call out lies, but I think we made it too easy with the amount of feathers haha.
Neat game! I really liked the art here and it was a cool interpretation of the theme. Good job!
Cool court case game!
I don't know if it's just me, but the aspect ratio of the game was off, so the text was cut off on the left side so I couldn't read it properly.
Sorry to hear it did that. Any chance you could let me know what your resolution was so I can figure out why it happened and fix it? Thanks.
You mean the game resolution? I don't know where to check that but I think it might've been 1920 x 1080
I think you have to full screen it! But we will fix the aspect ratio, just not sure if it's something we can edit at this point.
Cute game! I enjoyed playing through all of it. I can't say I fully understand why some of my judgments were deemed bad... maybe the game would be better if it were a bit less cut-and-dry. But I understand why you did it this way-- much simpler to do given the time restraints, and I think it was done well. :)
Very interesting play on the theme. The hand drawn artwork was really nice. Music was quite relaxing.
Post-jam, I'd recommend adding more sound effects and just a little animation to the characters while they're being judged.
Cool concept! I like how judging them does require you to pay attention to what they're saying. It's also interesting how they all have some depth to their character so we learn more about them as we judge them. Nice cozy game that keeps you on your toes. Great work!
For an experience focused on death and judgement, this was a nice cozy game! Really enjoyed this, would be nice to see it expanded! Well done!
great work! does the scale on the right explain if the person telling the the truth or lies? it seems to be that way
Yep, you got it! Thanks for playing :D
Love deduction games! Great take on the literal 'scales'. Art is banger, great job
Really neat take on the theme! I found it a bit difficult to tell whether people were lying or not, but maybe that's just me. I enjoyed the broad cast of characters, and the art was drawn very nicely.
Love the art, and a very creative spin on the theme!
I liked the doodle style, it's a very nice mini-game. good for you! please rate us too
Super Fun! Cool Artstyle!
Fun and intresting! Loved the art!
Cool concept! You can see how much work went into the art!
It's a bit hard to tell what is or isn't a lie, but I think the concept is fantastic and the execution is great! Amazing job!
Really original concept, and the visuals are stunning. However I think I'm too king because I thought every one was worthy of ascending but I guess I was wrong lol
Overall well done!
Cool style and unique art syle
