This is a great prototype! It's really short with 2 cases; overall fits the theme okay. Art was really good!
Overall, great and polished proof of concept!

To You: Through Space and TimeYou say "its quite bad" but I can see the care put into everything here, like the clues, the art, and the music. The art was really good especially. I also appreciate the literal red herring. Great work!

Infinite Odditiesthank god I'm not a real detective, I only got it right after exhausting all options lol
even though it was short I had fun and the visuals were all beautiful. Its a great idea and I could see many different cases being fun to solve in this way too

Particle PursuitExcellent work, one of the best I've played so far. The hand drawn texture around objects when hovering over looked really good. I was slightly confused by the numbering of the clues being /3 and then a 4th clue appeared. Also, for me the music wasn't doing too much - maybe some ambience instead to sell where the player currently is located, am I in the police office (quiet background office sounds) am I in the alleyway (street sounds)?

The CubeGreat game! The mystery was fun to solve and the visuals and audio worked very nicely with each other

Acid StormReally clever use of the theme! I'm delighted by the concept of this game, and I had fun playing. I also really liked the music and visuals! You picked the track very well, good detective vibes and unobtrusive, and the art was lovely. The caprese salad in particular was gorgeous. The only thing I couldn't quite figure out was what was up with the fish in the office.
