Awesome entry, so polished and well executed
One of the best games, good job guys!
Hi, super art-style and voice-acting !
I didn't make it to the end sadly, despite playing for half an hour :'( So I don't know how the story ends but I have to play and rate other games as well.
I didn't see any flaws in your game apart from:
- a small, very minor bug: sometimes I closed an item (like notes or files) and I couldn't open a new one, I had to clic again / re-open/re-close the same item ;
- it would have been nice to be able to get the submitted file and record opened at once, next to each other instead of each in turn.
What an excellent game! Extremely polished in both gameplay and art. I loved the story too, but what stood out the most was the overall gameplay experience — it feels really fluid and satisfying to play.
Amazing job!
I love this game so much! The mechanics aren’t too complicated, and I really like the art and game design. The characters are also very unique. You need to look for the small details to win the game!
The game has a charming visual style, the music and sound effects of the game are quite nice, but I really loved hearing the voice acting. Not too many games in the jam have done it (good job and amazing execution).
Having the voice acting honestly got me engaged and it immersed me further into the world of your game. The game managed to reflect the theme of trust no one really well. Good job on your game, and I wish all you the best of luck in any future projects/jams.
Awesome experience. I read all of it, if there would be voice acting for other characters it would be so great, but in the jam window, there is probably not enough time.
Thank you so much for your thoughts! Yes, sadly due to the time constraints we weren't able to find proper voice actors for every characters.
Peak art style and worldbuild. Voice acting was really really good and even surprised to see in game jam. Nice job!!
Thank you so much for your thoughts on our game! We are thankful and glad you enjoyed!
what a phenomenal art style!!
such a great entry, simple yet suuuper fun and engaging
the voice acting is amazing, shout out to the voice actor!
a really great fit for the theme as well
congrats!!
Thank you so much! We are so glad you were able to enjoy the simplistic nature of our game!
amazing art direction and gameplay!! the voice acting for mr family guy was great too. really loved the worldbuilding you alluded to throughout and had a lovely time playing!!
Thank you so so much! We went all out on the world building for it to stand out. We're glad you enjoyed!
Thanks for stopping by chat, we played this on the stream! Great game! Great art.
OMG! Thank you so much! We apologize for not being able to be on stream due to the timezone!
We're so glad you enjoyed it!
All around 5 star. This game was INCREDIBLE. So enjoyable. The art is gorgeous. I love the charcoal sketch kind of vibe to it. I LOVE these kinds of games where you have to observe the discrepancies. Amazing voice acting in the beginning too <3
Thank you so much! We're so glad you enjoyed this experience!
The game fits the jam's theme really well while still being simple. Reminds me of Papers, Please! The art style is unforgettable, props to the artist/s!
Thank you so much! Love your thoughts and comment on our game we are so glad!
You fit the theme well! Obviously derivative of Paper's Please, but this is a great setting adjustment. I'm impressed by all the writing and consistent art style. Good Game.
Thank you sm for leaving your thoughts on our game! We're glad u enjoyed!
yo thiz game stinks lmao who made this
What is our artist doing
very very pretty game and the game page is also gorgeous. it took me way to long to realize that the signature is also part of the game haha
alot of attention to detail and the audio is also really good :) had a great time thank you!
Thank you so much for your thoughts and comments on our game! We're glad you had a very great time playing it!
I really, really, really love the artstyle. Also I'm a big fan of papers please like games, so this is for sure a 5 star all across the board
Thank you so much for the 5 stars! We are so glad you enjoyed your experience!
Played the game through and I wasn't disappointed! The worldbuilding from the NPC dialogue and other set pieces is great and the cross-referencing part is pretty challenging too.
The artstyle, sound design and voice acting are absolutely superb too (props to the artist).
Great stuff!
Thank you so much for your thoughts and comment! We're glad you enjoyed the game and wasn't disappointed!
Love the art and story! The VA is fire as well, great game!
Thank you so much for your thoughts!
Yay web build!
Exceptional art, really stands out and carries the whole vibe. Was continually surprised at how many new character designs kept showing up! What an effort from the artist. Love to hear some voice acting in jam games too - not the best mic/recording setup, but it was well performed and added to the overall package. Could possibly be cleaned up a little more in post without needing to makeshift a recording booth, but perfectly jam acceptable as is.
The gameplay was okay, very papers noir, it did feel a little overshadowed by the art, audio, and narrative though. Would've been nice to have a little progression/more things and complications to check as the days went on. It definitely wasn't bad in any way, and having the presentation take priority over gameplay isn't necessarily a mistake, but I was expecting it to ramp up at least a little like most papers please-likes.
I enjoyed the little extras on the desk, having a cigar and using the record player, really helped sell the mood. Talking of the record player, the music was great, I'm glad I figured out how to play it and change the track!
Excellent entry, great work by the whole team and thank you for the extra effort getting a web build out!
Thank you so much for this amazing insight! We dabbled into the possibilities of a progressive difficulty but we just found the time left to be constraining for it to happen, we're glad you enjoyed nevertheless!
