I think this might genuinely be one of my favorite games i've EVER played!!
Here's my youtube gameplay of it!
Hey just watched and had great fun! Thanks a lot for playing.
We hope to create a longer experience in the future!
Great game
Good game. I hope you guys keep working on it
The game is great, I enjoyed it really well. I wonder if there will be more to the game, I want to know why the guy wanted to talk to the agent at the end of the game.
Really enjoyed the game! Slick art, music and I really enjoyed clicking around searching for clues and deducing what to do next. Its not too hard, but not too easy either, I think the challenge was just right for a pleasant quick game.
I really like the concept, I wish there was more of this obra dinn-style gameplay out there.
I haven't played this yet but the game screenshots look absolutely amazing!!
just an update! I absolutely love the mechanics along with the story!!
This game was amazing, loved investigating everything. I need more!!!!!!!!!!
Can't wait to play the full game :3
Thanks for the video! :)
This is my first experience on Itch and it was amazing, definitely need to continue with this idea.
One of the best quick mystery games I've played. It's not that deep and is quite easy, but it is still an enjoyable experience. I hope you explore the game further, cause the story is actually quite good and got me immersed.
I really like this game and I need more of it now
I made a video on it
Thank you for your effort!
🫡 we'll do our best to deliver more

Well done! I would say it's a little easy. Really awesome for being made in under a month!
Hello! I am Mattsu, a translator from Brazil. I am just starting my carreer as a translator for games and would like to collab with indie devs by providing localization services (for FREE!) to expand my portfolio and acquire more experience. Would a translation/localization in Brazilian Portuguese interest you? Please let me know!
Very cool! I love this UI and artstyle. The case is easy hovewer it is well-made and polished. I would like to play a full version of the game with complex cases

Visuals and gameplay are on point. Spotted a few grammatical errors, but still a great game overall. 4/5

This looks like an exciting mystery game with plenty of twists and turns! I'm definitely looking forward to playing it when it drops on Steam. Btw, if you're up for a fun challenge, I'd love to see what you come up with for the WowCube Game Jam: wowcube They have a very interesting platform and are even offering prizes lol
Very nice! Well made puzzles and really intriguing futuristic atmosphere! I would like to play more games like this, well done!
I made a gameplay of the game, I hope it's ok.
Bye!
Really good. The art style is lovely and so unique. The only thing I had issues with was figuring out how to navigate between screens on a couple occasions, but that might've honestly just been me being an idiot.
