Hello! Thank you so much for playing my game and for the great feedback.
I actually made this in 7 days for the Brackeys Game Jam, and I really want to improve it because I’m planning to put it on Steam. The theme was 'trust no one,' so I put it into the game in two ways: will you trust your emotions or the system?
Regarding your note about the tedious typing and repeated text, that was actually intentional! I wanted to create that mundane, bleak job atmosphere where you feel like a small cog in a massive bureaucracy. However, for the Steam version, I will definitely work on balancing and polishing this so it stays engaging without losing that specific vibe.
Thanks again for the support and the specific notes, they are very helpful!
Cool concept and lovely visuals! It feels a little quiet without audio, so adding sound design would really bring it to life. Overall, great execution and awesome job!
The art is actually incredible for a one-week build! Controls and overall gameplay feel really smooth, though adding a dialogue skip option would be a lifesaver—especially for replaying. Awesome work!
Thought it’d be WASD + mouse combat at first! Being able to manually shoot suspects and place lamps/turrets instead of having them spawn randomly on people would make the gameplay feel much more tactical. Really cool concept overall, good job!
Great graphics and amazing music sync with the rhythm movement! The isometric controls threw me off a bit and restarting from scratch was tough, but I had a blast playing it. Awesome entry!
Thank you so much! Really glad the moral ambiguity landed well and that you enjoyed the variety of suspects.
You make a great point about consequences! There are actually a few branching outcomes already—out of 26 total potential characters, only 24 will show up depending on the dialogue choices you make along the way. That said, I'd love to flesh out even deeper consequences in future updates. Thanks for playing and for the great feedback!
Incredible vibes, music, and lighting! The gameplay got a bit confusing with troll items, and the moving FOV change made me dizzy, but I loved it enough to beat it twice. Visually and audibly fantastic!
Loved this game, had a total blast! It gets pretty brutal after a few minutes though—having difficulty settings or distinct levels would be a great addition. Otherwise, absolutely amazing work!
Really cool, unique idea! The UI visuals and feel are top-tier, and the game offers a nice puzzle challenge. Adding an undo button would be a great QoL fix, but overall it’s an awesome, super polished entry!
Firstly game looks good not that bad for a solo game developer
I really liked the pixel art! However, when walking left or right, the character snaps to facing up as soon as you stop, which feels a bit off and could use a fix.
There are also some scaling issues on my end—the book is pushed way up to the top-left corner, making it unreadable. Trying to go fullscreen broke the layout and shifted the whole game to the top left. The game also froze for a moment right at the start.
Flaws aside, I’m not entirely sure I got the core mechanics, but with some polish and extra dev time, this could turn into something really good. Overall, good job!
Super polished! Loved the cozy Stardew Valley vibes with the gathering and crafting loop. The world map was super charming and perfectly scaled. Wish I could've explored inside the houses, but totally get the jam constraints. The art style is beautiful!
