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!!
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!!
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
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!
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.
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!
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
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!
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!
Wow, the game is visually stunning!
Really loved the voice acting, felt professional and the overall vibe of the game is really good and obviously fits the theme perfectly.
Great job :D
The atmosphere and the visuals are amazing! The gameplay loop can feel a bit repetitive, but I think it works well for small game. The interactions to light a cigar and play a record are nice touches and fit the vibe really well. Great job!
Was not expecting the voice acting! very good, PLEASE make a web build!
I enjoyed it a lot. Reminds me of Papers, Please. I think the only thing I'd change is to add a few other variables or things that we have to check about each person, as the core loop can get a little repetitive. But I really liked the narrative and level of care and detail in each character, awesome work there
