How does the game fit the theme?
its a who dun it mistery where you dont know who is the culprit

What code and assets did you not make from scratch during the jam (if any)?
used some ai to help push pr's and to speed up writing code, but never gave it creative control, all designs are ours, no art was made with ai, and the code that was helped with ai was mainly ui code for the interrogation room. all code solutions were made by us.

Great detective game with a lot of attention to detail! The art is incredibly cool, and the number of complex scenes with lots of characters in them is really inspiring. The evidence-recording mechanic was interesting—at first I tried to write down everything everyone ate, but it turned out that one of those details actually came in handy in the end. You even found time to draw hands for every character, which is awesome! The interrogation mechanic and the ability to call characters on the phone are great too. I liked that the game doesn't hold your hand and actually lets you figure out the mystery on your own.

I really liked the visuals in this one, and the music fit very well to them and the detective game that it was. I didn’t manage to solve the case, but I at least did manage to process one clue.

The trigger area for interactions in the memories were a bit odd/specific where around the person you could start talking to them / offer food.

The art is amazing. Also i really like the different gameplays in the interrogation room ant the memorys. Im just kinda confused why you can take notes without a time if you only need them with for the calls.
