Really enjoyed that game, it was really cool and what got me playing quite long on this game was that mysterious thriller aspect, almost detective like, the visuals really highlights the mood, great job on the gameplay as well, it's pretty smooth, congrats for this entry, one of the best i could've play so far !

love the artstyle and use of the gameplay to make an unsettling vibe! I couldn't pass Eleanor's third request (couldn't find anything), and I feel like the game should have ended by then anyway since we had the required $1500 for a camera... but it was still very fun to play!

NIGHTCRAWLERSi feel after the jam we will update that part. there's an aspect there that would bring you to the ending of the game, that involves taking pics around aimlessly. i believe we could increase the implication that you are to do something with the photography aspect since it wasn't really clear what to do then
Interesting game. I like the UI and the starting screen where the player can input their names a lot!

Till No Onelooks really cool but i couldnt do the first level because im using the scroll on my trackpad and it could only go between too zoomed out and too zoomed in

ImpermanenceVery interesting gameplay concept and a cool jam entry. I like the visual style too. The different quirks of each character really make you feel a bit untrust of your client at first. Nice job!

Fides CorviAmazing game! I really like the art style. Unfortunately I couldn't finish the game as I got stuck around Eleanor's third request cuz i couldnt find her after the ghost person whatever. The textures and stuff are a little blurry and anti aliased, but idk if its intentional or not cuz it does kinda add to the unsettlingness(?). Also the footsteps put u on ur toes, and I like that. The apartments have buggy collisions cuz u can fall out of the map sometimes along with being easily able to see beyond bounds. You should make a ground for those.

Cozy Loan SharkThe retro horror camera visuals are fantastic! The only downside is that the photo detection feels a bit too strict. Sometimes the shot just won't count no matter the angle.
