Oh man. If there was ever a reason for me to not be a detective. I am not good at picking up clues. It took me a while to understand what I was doing and how I play but after I realised how and what, it was actually really good. I love how the game isn't made easy. It actually needs the player to try and engage. I had to actually open up notepad on my computer. I mean, when was the last time you had to open up notepad to beat a game???
I love the artstyle so much. It's a simple looking place. Looks hand drawn and looks like it is made by pencil (although digital art) and it feels like an old style game that you find on the internet. The kind of game that actually makes the internet feel like a place worth exploring. Anyway, what I am trying to say is that I love these types of games. Fun, Simple but difficult, replayable, and small.
If I had to change anything, I would different blips for the player and people. But obviously you can only do so much in the time given. I do love the little animation of the people getting killed. Well. I loved the style. didn't love the death. You get what I am trying to say.
If you are going to take anything from this, please continue making this into a full little game after the jam is over. I would love to be able to play something like this where I just have to figure something out and I win. I dont know many detective games like this.
