This game has a lot of potential. There are definitely some things that could be improved, but for now I want to focus on the aspects I enjoyed the most.
1. The Art:
Even though some facial expressions could feel more genuine and emotionally expressive, I understand this is still a demo. The art style itself is unique and fits the tone of the game really well I love it.
2. The Music:
Personally, this was my favorite aspect of the game. The soundtrack does not feel like random music simply placed into the scenes; it genuinely matches the tone of the narrative and helps make the story more immersive. My favorite track was the one used during the argument gameplay. It creates a tense, conflict-driven atmosphere, while still being catchy enough that it does not feel repetitive as you check evidence and think about what to say next.
3. The Story:
I really enjoyed the way the mystery builds up. Not necessarily the main mystery we are supposed to solve in the demo, since that one felt a bit obvious, but rather the unexplained details surrounding the world and the characters. Those elements make you want to theorize, which makes the game much more interesting and fits perfectly with its tone. I also think this is a great way to build hype around the full game.
4. Gameplay:
I found out about this game because it was promoted as a “Ace attorney-Omori” game, and it definitely captures that feeling. The argument sections, the investigation elements, and the overall structure clearly appeal to fans of that kind of gameplay.
There are still some things that I think need polishing, such as certain aspects of the pixel art and gameplay, but considering this is only a demo, I completely understand. I really hope this game gets funded, because it has amazing potential.
Will do my best to promote it, good luck
