FIRE GAME
It's been a long time since I've played a point-and-click game. The art here immediatly caught my eye. This is amazing work! I filled the survey by the end of the demo, but I'll leave one of my suggestions here also: I hope for more puzzle mechanics besides just reading docs and recollecting events on a notebook. Good luck on the development. Can't wait for more.
My mouse keeps flashing between my default mouse and the costom game one. If this can't be solved then an option to turn off the custom mouse in settings would be good.
Is this game based on Killer Frequency? It just has a similar vibe.
Great game!!! ദ്ദി(ᵔᗜᵔ)
Loved the art style and the gameplay
Really liked how we have to pay attention to the details to fully understand whats going on
Cant wait for the full game (ㅅ´ ˘ `)
10/10 super enjoyable.
Nice game, though it often happened that I found just enough clues to get the right conclusion even though I didn't know all the facts, for example in the last case of the demo I couldn't name all the guests and there was a clue I couldn't find, but I still managed to solve the case with the words I had.
I absolutely loved the story! The playthrough was smooth, the graphics and art style gave me chills too which made the game even more enjoyable! A definite 10/10, good job!
Another banger by BRANE - Super pumped for the full game, already wishlisted on Steam!! The artstyle and narrative is excellent. 5/5
Do ıt in Russia, please :)
This was such a fun mystery game. I got my audio right this time around lol, but can't wait to check out your other games.
The demo was incredible! The game was easy and captivating. I liked the background music and the plot! It's cool how the stories are connected. Good luck with developing the game!
I was stuck for forever just because I swapped the names of the two people in a relationship at the last paragraph. The names are easily exchangeable in that spot, so please either make it more obvious which spots you want the names in or change it so that we can put either name in the spots. I also wish we had a notebook where we could type our opinions and such other things because it can get hard to keep track of all the facts to put them together in the end. Other than that, this was a fun game! I liked it.
That part with the names in the notebook has been rewritten to be clearer; it'll be updated in the next build!
We also had some plans for a notebook, but there are a few design issues to consider before we can add one. But I agree it would be a good addition to the game!
Awesome! I love to see when developers listen to people's concerns for the game so that they can improve the gameplay. I understand that not everything is feasible, but I appreciate the consideration.
I think these blanks could still be clearer, because I thought the relative clause ", who ..." was referring to the first person instead of the second person at first.
The playable version is still the old build! In the new version (that's not yet online, since we are still adding things to it), that sentence has been rewritten, so that there is just one person to fill in.
Great story telling. I loved how the game actually makes you feel like a detective rather than being a plain visual novel.
Hi. I would like to translate this game to brazilian portuguese. hit me up when you can.
Great game. Please make it to market
Great game, loved the art and the stories!
Good Game Just not for me 8.3/10
Will this game have Chinese language?
the storyline is just amazing, and it's such good brain teaser that isn't too easy or too hard. 10/10!!
that was the best demo ever!!!!! ithought it was the full game when i started.
Loved this game! Looking forward to the rest of it <3
Looking forward to the full game!
This is pretty good, I don't have time to finish it today but will come back for sure
I'm stuck at the second thing :c with Frank Fraser :c helllp
frank doesn't refer to the driver. look at the license plate
Love it!!
This is an amazing game! Can't wait to play the full version. The choice of art style is amazing!
The game is very awesome. I love that the cases connect to each other and it requires you to think and piece everything together. Cool game.
Beautifully made game. at the end I thought it was a horror since it said "June 24 2025, 3P.M." and I thought it was gonna be me dead LMAO.. Great game though. I'm still stuck on who the guy in the bathtub was.
I think his name was
Jack Potter, it's in a note on the desk to not invite him cause 'remember last time'Love the game! Can't wait for full release
Loved it sm I lowkey wanna be a detective now sighhh
This is a beautiful game, I had a lot of fun with it.
dude I played this game last week and I'm still obsessed with it, hoping for a full release soon
Beautiful game! The visuals are really nice — great work. 😊
Why is it only available for Apple? :(
There's a windows build available as well
But I'm from android :(
Out of curiosity, when do you estimate the full game will come out? SUPER INTRIGUING premise though, keep the good work up!
We are aiming for end of year
OH COOL !!
I will say that I did enjoy playing this game! But my low IQ really doesn't match with this game about solving murders, lol.
Other than that, style is very reminisce of old newgrounds which is very nostalgic and welcomed!
9/10 detective game. Looking forward to the full release!
beautiful assets!!! easy to understand but each puzzle gets more involved and longer to figure out (in a good way)!!! it was sooooo useful to see the 'persons' bar go up when you got the names correct!!! and the '?' icon was a nice detail as it wasn't an "in your face" type of hints.
i loved playing this demo, and i can't wait to see the full game when it gets out! <3333
the only little thing that I'm not really enjoying is that there's barely enough time to read the finished page when you've solved the murder, could there be a 'continue' button or something? that way we could read the page before continuing to the next murder?
and likewise, there were times when I was wishing i could see the past 'completed pages' of the previous murders because i forgot a few names or details, could there be a 'history' folder that you could have beside the 'current' folder?
These are very small things that i think would be great, but it's not a big deal if it's not possible to implement them or something, the demo is amazing already; these were just my thoughts and i thought it would be useful to share my gameplay experience?
overall, 9/10, would recommend to anyone <3 :D
Thank you for your kind words!
I really like your idea of a "Continue" button after you correctly solve a case; it's something we definitely should add.
We also want to add a way to go back to previous cases, to refresh your memory, check names, and so on. We still need to check how difficult it'll be to code, but it's something we wanted from the start. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough time to implement it in the demo.
Literally beautiful. I loved every second of this demo, and can't wait to see the complete version!
