A very NOIR game! It was really on point in terms of the writing, the visuals, the dialogue and the story conclusion. I enjoyed that I unexpected learned more things about bugs during my playthrough. I think maybe having one easy example of "finding a clue" before the main level could help players know what they are going to be doing / expected feedback when you've done it right.
Such a great entry overall, far too polished for the likes of a jam! I think the dialogue (text) system was nice and clean too; the game on the whole pieces together perfectly!

Spacey created ALL of art, NONE of sound effects, ALL of music.
Music was half created before jam, concept art, worldbuilding, and brainstorming happened before jam.
Snail prototyped one of the minigames before the jam.
