I liked having to analyze the different specimen to find the source, that was really original and was well executed. The sound effects and atmosphere actually made it pretty creepy lol. Good job!

So there's a Shadow over Innsmouth once again...

Your game has an interesting premise and an interesting atmosphere, a little like Subnautica on a desktop computer, if you know what I mean. I must admit that I didn't really get the puzzle, like, at all. You probably were supposed to somehow compare the Subjects to the CCTV images? In the end I had to brute force the result, though that might just have been due to my impatience to really dive into the matter...

The pre-rendered 3D photos were very well done, and I think they together with the soundtrack added a lot to the otherwise very clean UI-ish experience. Safe to say, I liked it.

Thanks for playing the game and giving feed back. I think if we were to come back to it this and improve it this feed back would be useful. :D

The collection of images and descriptions for each animal is very nice, the music is unnerving and the file system was pleasant to interact with.

However unless expertise is required in marine anatomy, I felt incredibly confused as to what needed to look for since it was very hard to discern what the images were showing. 

Additionally there is no fail condition, so I was able to choose every option available until the winning condition was met.
