Nice job! Would have like a bit more guidance on what to do, took me a while to understand how to interrogate folks. Impressive work for a jam!

Really cool idea, and I got it my first try! I wasn't quite sure what to do at first, but I figured it out kind of by accident - I had taken a picture and just happened to walk by one of the suspects. I also wasn't 100% sure I got it right my first try, so I had to play again and intentionally fail to see what the fail screen looked like. Maybe adding in the word "Congratulations" on the win screen would help. Great work!
I couldn’t figure it out… Really interesting/unique concept though =D
[EDIT: I mean I think I ran through all the possible combinations too and even that didn’t work for me]
thanks for playing! There's 24 possible combinations. I didn't want people to brute force it, but have to investigate. That being said, since it's a gam jam, i think i should have had more clues. I can tell you one item is a dead giveaway of character, and another item hints that it was the murder weapon, but if you show the right combo to the guilty person there will be a dead giveaway.
Cool idea and execution! The voice acting is really good. The only thing bothering me was the camera sound, it became annoying pretty fast haha. But other than that good job :)
The voice acting was my favorite part
moving around and interrogating was fun and challenging (in a good way!)
If I had to find an issue
it would be between the animations and the camera casting a shadow (I only noticed this because I had the same issue a few games back) after I'd spent hours of searching
turned out in UE there's a check box on meshes called SELF SHADOW ONLY
which just fixed it.
Good luck and may money find it's way to you
Really nice voice acting. I had fun in this little world. Nicely done!
Interesting Take on the theme! The deadpan lines of the characters were really funny. Great submission!
I'm fine with downloading jam games but 350mb? With all respects to the itch.io servers I managed to play 4 other games while downloading this one.
Now this game is actually quite good. Really enjoyed showing all photos to the suspects. The lines are great to listen to and funny. Especially "He never was good with a hammer, He never was good with a handsaw" gave me a good laugh. The take on the theme is original and its refreshing to see a first person game on a game jam.
I'm not sure how much can you reduce size of an unreal game, but its a shame that some people wont have enough patience to check it out.
