Really cool idea and great audio! I just wish the game was a little more clear with how to progress. I figured the story out pretty quickly, but I don't think the game allows you to end before the timer hits the halfway point, which caused me a lot of confusion and anger because I thought I was missing something. Either way it's a cool submission.

Damn, I got the bad ending :( I had a feeling too, but I second-guessed myself at the last minute! There's a certain detail I want to ask about, but I don't want to spoil anything here lol. Needless to say, the story had me hooked, especially towards the end. 

You guys really nailed the old detective noir atmosphere. The environment and music did a lot to sell it, only thing missing was the cigarette smoke, lol. I loved the typewriter presentation too, and going through the case files and newspapers looking for clues was fun. All the little details in the articles helped make the world feel believable. Pretty impressive mystery you guys put together for the jam!

This game has a great aesthetic! The opening menu design is so well done, and then once in the game, you did a great job putting the player in the detective mindset with the lighting and sound design. I did encounter the UI offset issue when playing in fullscreen at first, but the problem is fixed when playing in the game window on the itch page. Once I figured that out, I was able to flip through the file and newspaper pages. I particularly enjoyed all the article titles and details in the newspaper. One note I have is that the dialog feels like it types out really slowly (but the typewriter text box is soo cool!). Overall, this is a really impressive game and a cool story!!

It's good to see a detective game in the game jam. I think the story is quite clever in presenting the mystery and the solution by finding information through the newspaper and dialogue.

The controls are a bit clanky and I had to spam click all over the place to see if something triggers. I've only learned about the other pages in the case files and newspaper because of the other comments, but inside the game it's not very obvious that you can click those areas. 

(╥ ᴗ ╥)

I also wanted to drink the coffee but it's not letting me! ₍₍⚞(⸝⸝>⸝⸝<⸝⸝)⚟⁾⁾

I like the choice of music. It's atmospheric. Very noir! The art is also good with the mix of pixel art and 3D. I think you were able to present the characters well despite the short interactions. Perhaps, in the future, you can expand the mysteries surrounding the doppelgangers and you will be solving different cases related to them.

(..◜ᴗ◝..)

CASE CLOSED! I had a great time playing through this, especially reading through everything. Really made me feel like a detective! Like the others, I did have a hard time understanding that I could flip the pages. I would also say that I felt that the timer impeded just a little, as it added stress to the game that I didn't feel it needed. I would sit in that cafe all day going over a case. Other than that, everything was fantastic! I'm a big fan of the music here as well; it really caught that vibe. Great work!

Really atmospheric game, cool visual choices (the typewriter, oh my god, so good). I'm a dummy and couldn't get the good ending, probably due to my bad English lol. I'd definitely play a full version!!! (Twin Peaks vibes +++)

I’ve been told it was a cool game, so I came try and it was indeed a cool game! It took me a while to figure out how it worked though, I didnt understand for several minutes that you could turn pages in the files or the journal, by the time I got it, I only got a couple of minute left and I run out of time to solve the case :/ that made me wonder: was the timer really necessary? I refreshed the page to start again, this time knowing the controles and really enjoyed solving your case. One little little regret, I didnt feel like my notes served me at all at the end because of the reward the client gave us. It felt like a missed opportunity to use our knowledge of the world building to make the good decision, if it make sense.

On an other note, I really enjoyed the artistic direction, such a strong ambience and the typewriter is a nice touch! building a mystery game in such a short amount of time is super ambitious, GG!

As an avid fan of the detective genre of games I was really excited to give this game a try, and it didn't disappoint! I did run into some bugs that made the game unplayable on my first attempt but after restart everything was working aside from the occasional issues with the mouse. The art and music were incredibly well executed as well as the sound effects, and the mystery was very fun to unravel. This was quite an ambitious project but you guys did great, definitely one of my favorite games of the jam!

Oh my God, what a cool game! The whole feel of it is perfect, down to the little details with the VFX and art. You guys really captured the essential feeling of a classic detective game. The tone shift was done so shockingly well, immediately felt terrified!

I did come across a couple of bugs, like the game not working after trying to do a 2nd run, which was a bummer because I wanted to see the other ending! The function to click and fast-forward the typing effect also breaks after the first conversation, which then caused me to accidentally skip through the bartender's dialogue about changelings, which can't be replayed.

I also couldn't figure out how to use the notebook. I couldn't seem to type notes in it or anything, or turn pages.

I liked the detail of having a noise indicator for when you learned valuable new information, but it would also be super helpful to have a visual indicator!

The game, even with the bugs, is an impressive feat in 2 weeks. Your team should be proud of themselves!

Wow, the atmosphere on this one is through the roof!! It feels appropriately somber. It took me a second to understand how to navigate the game, but the mystery was intriguing once I figured it out!

Genuinely scary game xD I love the atmosphere, it was so well done, especially the music and art was super immersive, and I loved the newspaper snippets. Does the game actually have a bad/good end? I still can't 100% tell if I got the right one or not xd
I did get some issues with the UI, for example sometimes the mouse would disappear and I had to navigate out then back into the game to get it working. Also the UI for the newspaper was offset so the click to flip pages bit was a bit hard.  But overall one of my fav games so far in the jam !

I loved the vibe of the game so much! Beautiful assets and a fun premise. I will say that it did take me a bit longer than I'd like to admit to realize I could flip pages of the newspaper, so I was stuck for some time.

This was a pretty interesting game! 

The gameplay was a little confusing as I didn't know I could turn pages. The mystery was intriguing though, my only complaint is that there is a little too much reading but I liked that it gave us clues into the world.

Overall, I enjoyed it. Keep up the great work!
