I like the visual. The dialogues were pretty funny, in an absurd kinda way. The gameplay is interesting, I guessed right the first time, with some more polish and maybe clearer clues it could be a really fun game.

Found the dialogue lines really funny, took me a couple rounds to figure out what was going on but then I got the hang of it. I like the concept but could maybe have a bit more polish, like having menus instead of different buttons for each action

I got 500 points on my third play, though I still don't know how exactly. The music stuttering was a bit offputting, I interpret it as being a record skipping but it was driving me a little batty by the end. Graphically the dithering felt a little underwhelming just due to the scene being so static. It's a neat concept but could use a round of polish on some of the rougher edges.

I didn't uderstand at first what next round meant, until I noticed that people were dying when I was pressing it lol. I did get the killer immediately after that, got 200 points. The presentation confused me at first, I thought that I can walk to the suspects and not just look at them. Music seemed a bit annoying.

I've got 400 points. Got the killer after one turn.

The premise has potential, but the game, especially the controls need a lot of work. ( I would suggest to either lean into the first person view and let the player walk around, or going menu style where you have a selection cursor over every guest and can switch between them by pressing a button)

At the start I was trying to move forward by pressing w and just skipped all days and was immediately greeted with a game over x)

I think the most urgent thing is the music not looping properly, this made playing the game somewhat grating.

I'm not a very good detective. But I accused the correct person only once, and there were 2 people left.

This is a good game, good visual, and the music sounds beautifully broken.

I quite liked the visual style but I was having a hard time figuring out who to accuse!

Developer

The clue system has 3 catagories, the murderer will have more catagory 3 clues than the others

There’s a lot more than 2 colors on screen (in particular around the text boxes).

I didn’t quite understand how to play it, how to determine which suspect to accuse.

Developer

There's only 2 colors on the screen at a time, black, and white
