Fun visual novel! It was definitely hard trying to match the evidence to what the text was at times. I felt like I got it right one time but then messed up a few dozen times later. Thankfully the save feature helped with that.

I like the artwork! all of the characters looked great and played their roles surprisingly well.

The costumes and setting were really fun for these characters. I liked seeing them put in these new roles. I felt like some of the times to present evidence were slightly "off" compared to what was being said in the testimony, or maybe that multiple possible times should have been accepted. The logic generally felt sound, though. I enjoyed the fact that this felt like a complete story, with wrong answers still regularly having solid dialogue and with a satisfying "chain reaction" solution. Overall, it was a good, cohesive experience.

Very cute game! I loved the part where you become big brain and solve the whole thing and it turns out to be quite the chain of events at the end.  Simple gameplay, but figuring out what part of the witnesses' statements don't add up was a good challenge.

I loved the writing!  Very funny, very them.

It was fun trying to figure out the right evidence to object with at the right moment, even if there were a couple cases where it was a little murky.  

Especially for a solo entry, this was really very impressive!

Twas a very active challenge of working on the game s solo dev, and 9 days were spent on just writing because it was the core of everything.

The puzzles were certainly interesting to balance around, and in lieu of having a large team of testplayers, it went surprisingly alright.

Glad to see a great reaction to my struggle baby, and im looking forwards to seeing your project soon!

I really enjoyed the Phoenix-Wright style of gameplay! I enjoyed the humor and absurdity of it all.

there’s nothing like a healthy dose of absurdity to make the court case go smoothly

Thank you so much for the kind words!
