This one's really cute! Not only the art style, but art direction as well. And kudos for actually scoping your story to the size of the jam, unlike some people (me. I'm talking about me).
You did a great job on this game! First of all the artwork is beautiful: The characters, expressions, clues and backgrounds were really well drawn and rendered! I enjoyed the little additional gameplay elements (exploring, fact-checking against the case file…) you added to make it more than a visual novel. The story was well-written and kept me curious the whole time. I also like that the game was not too lenghty nor verbose. I did feel like the time component was slightly underused in the end, but it was satisfying to be able to be able to follow the story fully as well. I’m impressed, great work!
We (Aiya, Zero, Yuri) played this on call together! Comments:
Aiya: The visuals are so so cute, the story was nice and well written, and it all came to a satisfying conclusion~ I became the sole April/Lola shipper on Earth while reading this. If I was the one writing they would've kissed at least 3 times.
Zero: Such a cute little game! I really liked the aesthetic, especially the background art. The characters were charming and it came together nicely.
Yuri: I was entertained the whole time and the characters were very likeable to me! The amount of care put into the backgrounds and the sprites was also really clear to me, I'm impressed... Very cute very intriguing so good so good!!! I love bunnies!!!!!!
Thank you so much!! I can’t believe I never considered April/Lola before, such a cute ship!
I'm a yuri-obsessed freak who only has eyes for GL. We voiced all the characters and I kept adding stuff like "I'll tell you this secret... for a kiss~" I'm glad you approve of my delusions <3

I loved this game! The character interaction was fun to read, the story was intriguing (I was guessing who the culprit was along with the characters), and the art was really pretty (also I admire you managed to draw so many backgrounds and character sprites in a month, wow). Nicely done!
This game was highly enjoyable! I really liked that the theories were all equally plausible. It made it fun to play with family because we all had different theories on who the culprit was. It was also paced really well.
Overall I feel like it had all the makings of a good game jam submission. Congrats on making such a great submission!^^

Cool game. I like how the story changes with each person you talk to. The art is really good too!
Short, but really cool and satisfying game. Love the art style! Great job!
