I liked this one a lot! Very simple, but very on-theme and silly. Good work!

Nice game! Absolutely enjoyed finding the thief. The gameplay was smooth, but at first I thought spacebar was jump, so maybe some indication in the game would be nice. And the text wrapping maybe use word, not characters because it's kinda tedious to join the letters from the far left and far right haha. But overall really nice game, I think I found all, or at least most endings.

Yeah, I’ll definitely fix the wrapping problem after the jam. In fact, I’ve discovered it but I didn’t know how to fix it.

Thanks for your advice. 😆

Great game! Haven't seen many detective games in this jam.

Finding the chocolate cake thief was hilarious—such a fun and charming touch! The core detective concept is super neat and entertaining to play through.

A quick suggestion for future updates:

- Audio & BGM: Adding an option to lower/adjust the music volume or offering a couple of track variations would make longer investigation sessions much smoother.

Great job on the entry! If you have a free minute, I'd really appreciate your feedback on my jam project as well: /jam/brackeys-16/rate/4953523
