Sherlock Mouse!
Woo 3D Game!!! I liked the concept, to bad about the randomization. As a environment artist myself, did you design the house? I struggled with who, as I do not watch all the Vshojo members enough to get the references. Or I am just dumb idk...
Thank you! Ah, looking at the credits I missed them! The rooms were a resource pack from the Epic Marketplace by an incredible artist named Dirtrock. I'm not able to make edits to the credits right now until the judging ends, so for now, here's his profile page. Please check him out!

I made some modifications to it so it would fit the theme a bit more, and I also added the Halloween decorations and changed the lighting a bit. Buts all in all a majority of how it looks was thanks to Dirtrock.
I wanted to make a dedicated in-game credits page, but was short on time. I'll likely update this once the judging is done! There's a lot of optimizing I want to add so its easier for more of the community to play. I also really want to get the randomization in too!
Oh! And as for the items, some were less intuitive than others. Spoilers, but here's who each item belongs to and its context:
Henya : Cube
- Part of Henya's design and lore video includes this mysterious gold and blue cube. Not sure what it does to be honest
Zentreya : Toaster
- There's a running joke in Zen's community that she's a toaster, referencing her cyborg model
Geega : Eyepatch
- Not all of her models have it, but a staple of her design is an eyepatch over her left eye
(The following aren't so obvious)
Matara : Wine Glass
- In one of her introduction videos ( I think it was the teaser?) she was seen holding one. I almost removed this reference because I remember hearing that she doesn’t drink anymore, and I didn't want to be potentially offensive to her or her community, but unfortunately I wasn't able to swap it out before time had run out.
Melody : Headphones
- I don't watch her very often so I hard a hard time choosing a belonging for her. I really wanted to model out her little headpiece that she wears, but I opted for headphones that matched her color scheme.
Kuro : Black Face Mask
- This one is also subtle, but his character model is seen wearing a black face mask relatively often
Haruka : Deer Antlers
- Her model has antlers!
MAJOR SPOILER!
Haruka’s is in the game technically. But because she's always the guilty suspect the player won't ever see it.
The game looks great! I solved the mystery on my first attempt, being a detective is easy!
Thank you! I wanted to add randomization to the suspect, weapon, and room, but ran out of time. Thanks for playing!!!
Oh, I didn't know if the result was randomized or not, I'm glad I didn't spoil it in the comments!!
I just realized that the executable I uploaded is missing the binaries. If the judges are willing to take pity on me, the full playable game is here. If not, thank you for hosting! It was a lot of fun!
