We caught the killer on our second game >:3 Loved the cute art style and the variety of characters and it's such a fun concept! Hope you get time at some point to add the notebook because it definitely would've helped in remembering all the info and uncovering the killer (also it looks so goood)!

Developer

Thank you so much! We're happy to finally launch an update to add all the features (like the notebook) we planned to add originally!

This was fun, kinda unique.

Really fun! Nice work! Would love to see the notebook added when you can!

Developer

Thank you so much! We just released the game's first update and the notebook helps a lot!

This is such a fun game! It took a while for me to figure out what I was supposed to be paying attention to and where the souls could be found, but otherwise very smooth. I love the time mechanic!

Developer(+1)

Thank you so much for playing and for the great feedback! If it helps, I still have a hard time finding the souls and I programmed the spawn points lol... Definitely could be improved. Glad you enjoyed the game!!

very cool concept! I definitely should have pulled out an actual notebook, lol. I think that could be cool gui to include, like a little detective notebook or something! I really enjoyed the dialogue, it was very funny

Developer

Thank you so much for playing and for the feedback! We actually planned from the start to add the gui notebook and even had the art for it, but sadly we just ran out of time to include it for the jam. We plan on making an updated build with bug fixes and the journal after the jam voting ends!

A bit of a delay on the update but the notebook and lots of other features are in the game now! Thanks again for playing!

Amazing concept! The gameplay heavily reminds me of playing the Clue board games. The simplistic character designs are also very charming.

Developer

Thank you so much for playing! Clue and Guess Who were actually the main inspirations for the game so I'm so glad you got that :)

Enjoyable game! Was a bit confused at first since i figured out the murderer pretty early on but couldn't accuse them, but i figured it out towards the end! Really cute artstyle also (:

Thank you so much for playing!!

Seriously cool game, I love the game mechanic of being able to listen into conversations! This would be very fun to play on a Halloween night

Lovely idea! I had a hard time figuring out what made time progress and it felt like it was a bit up to luck at first if i managed to get the right info or have people talk to the right person. But once i got it figured out it was a very nice concept, well done!

Thank you so much for checking it out! :)
