How does the game fit the theme?
This game plays on the theme of "trust no one" to deliver a short interactive story where you try to find your own killer as a ghost. You can find clues all over your house and retrace the last day of your life, to find out more about the kind of person you were, and who to trust. My game mixes cute UI and soft, pastel color palettes to narrate a story that is both horrifying and somewhat expected-- but only if you stick to the theme and really Trust No One.
Not even yourself.
What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
All code was made from scratch during this jam. The audio and sfx were downloaded from Pixabay, and some of the furnitures are from blendkit. 2 Fonts used are schoolbell and Sniglet, downloadable from google fonts. The idea, content, story, 2d assets, code and some of the 3d assets are mine.

The way you used the theme is awsome I wish ı could play the rest because when the panel shows up for who to trust ı cant click anything so ı tried to play 2 times even though its still a great game nice visuals and audio and making it solo respected for sure
Cool and fun game! Only remark I have is some functional issues (like for example sometimes I just couldn't click anymore, or was reading a letter and couldn't click away,... but this could be my fault + when you step up a chair or something you can't go back down)
Nice overall (for a 7 day game jam for sure)
Just played your game. From the tame UI I didn't expect it to go so dark lol. Good story and way it's told.
Whoa, what a twist. Loved the game. Everything about this game feels so well executed and polished!
That last bit "Not even yourself" is a spoiler lol but I already played it and I loved it. I loved the ending. Reading through everything and figuring out who it was. Beautifully directed. Story had depth, and even though the characters are not there I felt like I was attached to them. Thank you for making this. You have a talent for making mystery games and making the player piece everything together. Lean into that, it will take you far
I was a bit torn about whether I should add that "Not even yourself" in the description but I ended up adding it. I love mystery and story based games!
I am really glad that the story can get you attached to the characters even when they are no longer there. Thank you for your feedback!
This is a good game overall although its really depressing rather than enjoyable. but a well made game
Thank you for playing! I wanted to make it depressing for people who came in expecting something cute or funny after looking at the UI (afterall you shouldn't trust the dev's questionable sense of aesthetics either >:D)
