How does the game fit the theme?
One person was murdered at this party. To solve it, you'll read everyone's testimony and walk through frozen moments in time to check their stories against what actually happened. Some are lying. Some aren't. You won't know which until you look for yourself — because here, you can't trust anyone.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
Models (some of them)

Great atmosphere and awesome immersion! Making the book act as the interface was a fantastic design touch.
Awesome detective puzzle. Love time travel stuff in games.
Got 14/14 first try.
Nice game! I really got those detective vibes, and the time-rewind mechanic is cool! It also has a slightly spooky atmosphere.
I've only managed to get a score of 9/14 (64%) in 2 plays.
The size of some objects feels kind of weird, and the bathroom with just a toilet made me laugh xD
This is a very well-put-together game. It has very interesting gameplay. The music made it moody in a good way.
I have never played a game with this kind of mechanic, going back in time to discover what happened. It really shows, and not just tells the player about the story very well.
Well done!
Nice game, love how it looks as well
thanks for playing
Really good work for one person! Extra points for all the kanye refs lol.
Kanye my goat. Thanks for playing
I really liked this! I've been doing horribly on a lot of the deduction games, but this one is really well put together. The pacing, the story unfolding gradually, the time travel mechanic aligning with the sequence of events... I ended up getting a 86% in the end (missed 2). Would've liked to know if the questions I missed were the murderer ones.Very well done!
86% is really good . I didn't want the player to brute force their way to the answer so that's why I kept it hidden.
The shadowy figure in the background that’s always lurking in the same spot is really creepy. Well Done!
Huh. What figure
Cool time travel idea and overall nice and clear hit on the jam theme!
Very solid scene, imho has a potential for scaling
(good replay bait text on finish also haha)
Haha yes. Thanks for playing
Really enjoyed the overall atmosphere and sense of immersion!
I especially loved how the interface was integrated into the book instead of just being a regular UI. Such a nice design choice.
Thanks for playing. Making Ui digetic really works
Nice game! Walking through frozen moments felt so Obra Dinn I like it! had 100% completion, so that's that. Nice work!
Thanks a lot for playing! 100% is amazing and yeah obra dinn was a huge inspiration.
First thing it said was "Liam's Dead", and I was like am I? 😅 Great game tho. I liked the visuals, and the writing too. Well done.
Thats actually so funny LOL. What a coincidence!
Nice game! love how it looks as well. It kind of gives me return to obra din vibes.
Yeah obra dinn was a huge inspiration for this. Thanks a lot for playing
Got 12/14! Not sure if it’s becuz I got the escape parts wrong haha. Always love detective games, and the mechanic of changing the timeline by triggering different frames was excellent. Amazing work!
12/14 is hella good thanks for playing

I think it's one of the few 3D detective games I've seen, great job!
Thx bro
this is soo good and how do you have 3 kanye references bruh lol
kanye my goat - its actually 4 references
Interesting investigation mechanics. Honestly, a tutorial is needed to make it easier to get into. Good job!
Thanks for the feedback! there is a tutorial at the start tho?
Wow! I love the time rewinding mechanic a lot, super unique take on the murder-mystery style and made me feel like a cool little time detective hahaha. Ended up getting 14/14 after doubting myself and double-checking everything but had a ton of fun doing it. Great job!
Yo nice you got a 14! thats fire bro. Thanks for the nice words!
