Cool game with an interesting idea. It was very nice to see voice acting. About cons: you have a wrong voice file in the last interview, also I found one part confusing: spoiler.

Whoa, this was pretty cool and very ambitious! We failed miserably because we missed a “no” in a certain place, oopsie, but otherwise, we had a lot of fun with this. Maybe a bit too much scope if you’re not into this sort of game, but we are, so, I’m glad this exists! :)

A Night At The Operaoh wow, a detective game where you play as a bad actor in the case? Thats amazing, im surprised no one has ever done something like that before. Voice acting is something thats very much rare to see in a game made so quick, but you NAILED it. I adore the feel that the minimalist style gives it, I'd love to see more of this type of game somewhere one day.

Death Trap HeroFun subversion of a detective adventure game. You were definitely able to accomplish a lot with a minimal presentation. Might benefit from a few quality-of-life tools down the line, like maybe bookmarking emails you want to reference again. Hope you keep fleshing it out! Well done :)

Scrap AttackUn punto de vista mas narrativo al tema. Me gusto el metodo de puzzles utilizado al tener que ir pasando entre los correos para solucionarlos.

Prey2HunterThe name of the game is amazing!
I would really love to see more color and hear more sounds and music in this game.
I'm sorry I couldn't play it. The writing didn't grip me right away, but it's hard to get to the level of Citizen Sleeper or Disco Elysium in 48 hours.
Cross-referencing documents sounds like it might have an interesting mystery.

Ghostly GirlInteresting take on a detective game! Love the little story elements that build the world. Good job!

Deal With ItReally cool game and idea! I am still working on figuring out what piece of evidence to use. I am mostly sure of who the murderer was, but still progressing lol. This was a really cool and unique idea! The storytelling is really good! Makes this small little world feel alive (well, alive for the not dead people) Interesting take on the theme! Great job!
