How does the game fit the theme?
The player plays as a detective who has special abilities to solve unique times, such as travelling between different important time frames of the crime and between strange dimensions, the object world (the scene physically at a point in time), the ethereal world (where you can interact with the thoughts and emotions of characters at that moment), and the Testimonial world, where you can revisit the police testimony/alibis provided by the characters. Accessing these 'Strange Places' provides the player, the detective, the unique ability to solve the crime that no other detectives are capable of solving.

This is the first game about detective from this Jam. I actually like this genre, and i like pixel art as well
This is the first detective style game I have played so far in the jam, which was really refreshing! There was a lot to this game - a lot of clues to find and people to talk to in order solve cases as a detective. The ability to travel between different worlds tied the game into the theme nicely and created an interesting aspect to the game. The detective board was a bit finicky (though a very interesting part of the game and I hope you explore this more in the future) - I had to zoom in and out to read the board but it was tricky to handle at times. The game art was really well done! I wish there was some music to add to the suspense. Congrats on the game!
Somehow after tutorial, it just appear the clue board, and I have no clue to throw it away.
Hey sorry about that, we are aware of this happening sometimes and are bugfixing it before the bugfixing deadline, we would love for you to try it again in a few hours :)
Love this!! The art style, the story and the overall concept are all super well thought out. It got me pretty quickly into the game, and the storyline hooks me in to explore. Well done :)
Hey! Thanks so much, we still definitely have a couple of bugs left to iron out for sure but glad you enjoyed :)
