A really interesting game, with a mechanic so complex that it's really impressive that it was done within 48h of Jam. However not everyone will have the pacience to actually learn how to play since the tutorial is so long and entirely text based. Consider adding more images or even a playable tutorial to remove that barrier.

Anyway, congratulations!

Thank you, and thanks for the feedback.

And yes, I definitely agree the tutorial is far less than ideal. If I had to do it again, I would try to push a little closer to the deadline and make a better tutorial. But I'm glad you managed to make it through it. Thanks again.

This is such a cool idea! The game is quite complex which is impressive for a 2-days game and the art is awesome! I enjoyed playing it thanks for creating this game!

I'm really glad you liked it. Thanks so much.

The game was really good, and it felt original, I love the music xD

It was a fun and interesting game and nicely done to go with the theme as well

One thing about the windows build I wasnt able to see the continue button so I deleted that and played in browser and it works :)

I still have the browser tab open to listen to the main menu song xD.

Thank you so much for the game play, that's really cool.  I'm glad you liked the music, we tried to go for something Law and Order-esque.

After doing a lot of reading (maybe replace this by a small demonstration of the game mechanics) and playing through a single game not knowing what was going on I started to grasp the game and got intrigued by the mechanics. A very interesting, original game design packed into a fun little story. The game also allows for quick some strategy and tactics and is fun to play. Great job!

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it.  I definitely agree the tutorial could use some work,  it is a very inelegant solution. I'm happy you managed to trudge your way through it and find the game underneath. Thanks again for your feedback.

A lot to read but a fun game. Had to be quick whilst still using strategy. Well done :)

Nice idea

Okay, there was a lot of reading to get through the rules, and the game was quite small in my browser with no way to make it bigger (maybe downloading it would have worked better than playing in the browser).

But once I got past that, it's a really well-designed adversarial game, with a great theme of trying to pack a juror's brain with information. I loved it!

Developer

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it, and I'm glad you made it through the tutorial. I know it can be quite a lot. Thanks again for the feedback.

Oh I see what you mean by its really small. That's very strange. It only seems to happen sometimes and only on certain screen resolutions; it doesn't happen on my desktop but it happens on my laptop. Sorry about that, I'll try to figure out why that's happening.
