using the wasd/arrows is hard to move since you don't keep your direction when the camera changes angles so I just used the mouse. impressive game for a jam! i like the idea and i think you could build it out into a bigger project if you wanted

The main menu sounds like Saw movies theme (I like it). I really like the idea of an investigation and the usage to the fixed camera angles. It makes me think of oldies like Alone in the Dark or Resident Evil. Unfortunately, I find the body in the apartment and then I don't know what to do, I've tried everything and I'm going round in circles.

If you could try and rate my game, I'd be grateful

I like the concept of a murder mystery, but the game is not yet finished. I can only play until I found the body. As for the movement WASD-keys are tricky, but with left-clicking the character walks smoothly.

Looks neat, although the camera switching seems to break the movement a bit (maybe make them walk in the same direction if you keep holding down the movement key through a transition)

Interesting submission! Theme aside, I liked the fixed camera angles, although I had some trouble when the camera kept switching if I held a movement key down.  I also wasn't sure how to progress once I got into the apartment. I could only walk around.

It's a good base to work on!
