A garbled sound plays when you hover over an item you are looking for.

Our trash/weird control schemes range in the 3 part battle that doesn't explain the rules as well as the invconvenient notebook the players can check.

I want to play it although I have a problem with _renpysteam and I have no idea what to do, tried to download it again and unpack but did not work
Hello! Which version are you having difficulty with?
I am absolutely in love with the character designs (especially Cherry's she is baby haha) and plebians is my new favourite insult haha. I am in love with the story and setting overall and I love how the dialogue is an important aspect of figuring out how to beat the villains towards the end and get a good ending. Overall amazing work and I hope to see more from you all :)
Altough it was short it was very enjoyable. Finding clues and connecting them really made me feel like a detective. The story also was quite easy to understand and the interaction between characters was hilarious. Great Job! I hope you guys make more games!

THIS ONE GREAT
Overall, I liked it! For a jam, this is great and what a jam is supposed to create: a nimble project, not to be taken too seriously, that entertains for a short while, and that clearly shows that it was made by people that had fun making it!
Of course the writing (of dialogs and events) is improvable (for example there are too many "Alright" and generally is hasty) but again, it's understandable for a jam.
I didn't get why you pass the final fight by saying the truth. Maybe you didn't convey too well that the main character it's a detective, a "man of the law". Maybe because of the hasty writing or its look too punky (it's a jam, so it's forgiven!). However it was the best part because it's where the humor really kicks in! (I loved the AutoMoles!)
And of course, the arts are top notch! Not just by their technical quality, but the character desing too! A nice touch was that singular frame (only one, pity) where the tail lights when he's shocked!
Good job! :)
