I don't know how to describe writing, it was somehow realistic yet extremely cartoonish. And I mean that in the best of sense, it truly did feel surreal but instantly as if I was in the situation. Also fun, there were some golden moments in there! Art overall was also great, I the character designs were perfect and I loved the little animations when they talk. Exploring the room was also well made, it kept the intrigue up while giving lots of info and world building. Also I just liked how everywhere there was blood and gore hehe. I do wonder if using Ren'py's imagemap system would be better for the exploration system, but that's just me, the background aesthetic was fun so I was just sad it was partly covered up with UI. Regardless, great work! Hope you continue this forward, it's an interesting premise and I am just left wondering where it will lead. ^^

Amazing game. The game looks really cool. and the writing is amazing. The sound is also really good and it could even be beter with some ambience during the quiet parts. But I have to say, I need more!

Amazing game. Keep it up♥

Maan I'm disappointed the demo ended there haha. Love the pixel art of the characters, and the animations especially. The x'd out photo is real nice too. The script could stand to be a little more formal (less ??? ,,, etc) for a more "horror" feel but the story works all the same.

Very polished for a jam game! I know it's supposed to be horror but the ringleader made me laugh so much. Reminds me of that one Ace Attorney case except creepier and nowhere near as insufferable lol

Developer

lol I know EXACTLY which Ace Attorney case you're talking about. Thank you so much for commenting! <3
