Indie gaming's newest and worst murder mystery yet.  Full of exhilarating characters and deep storytelling!

Note: The HTML5 version is playable, but not ideal. Things like the pause menu which uses esc don't work. I added tab as an alias for the pause menu, but other than that most of the issues still remain

Features:

-Interrogate 4 characters with like 5 lines of dialogue each
-Amazing inventory mechanics that are used like twice
-Cut features that are never making it into the final release
-avant garde art style
-Bugs and glitches, including a way to clip out of bounds (devroom not in this version)
-A linux version, as well as a windows version I haven't tested yet
-So much unused content taking up file space!
-A title screen that took up most of the development time

I didn't play the whole game, but I did test the windows version and it seems to work pretty well. I love the concept, the art, and music. It has such a silly vibe too it. And the dialog is so stupid it's good. Particularly the flat character art style. My friend really wanted to do flat art in our game. But I didn't know how to make it work. I love the game. Check mine out if you have a second. Oh, and glad to see someone using Godot! Always happy to see people using the open source engine. https://itch.io/jam/ms-paints-jam/rate/1590015

Thank you, I'll be sure to check your game out too!

agatha christie is quaking rn :P

jokes aside, very cool and funny game!! :)))

first game that made me laugh🤣 i feel we have similar style of humor
i think it's the best game so far, with the amount of content, and a shyamyalyan twist!

Thanks!

I loved it! Even though I had trouble with the mouse controls (I played in browser) the game was still a lot of fun, I really like what you did with the overworld and there's overall a lot of content :)


The backgound music was also nice (:

Yeah I kinda rushed it toward the end, and when I saw everyone else was doing an HTML5 port I had to rush that out too.

awesome!
