Very nice entry, I didn't get who was the murderer :P

Great concept dude and amazing use of theme!

supremefist 2013-12-16 13:36

I uncovered the traitor! Wohoo! Nice murder mystery! Was not really interactive, though!

Wonderful presentation! The writing itself was quite good but the way it was displayed really gave some extra charm to the scenario.

Yay, i found the traitor! Really good writing, but i'm missing some game elements to keep the player involved.

iansnyder 2013-12-16 15:31

Wow, that was awesome! Great writing and presentation. Now I need to check out your other games :D

Found the traitor! Good writing, not a lot of interaction though.

I picked correctly, but was disappointed that I didn't get to see the graphical result of my choice. I've already accepted that I'm a horrible person.

Cool concept and good writing. I just wished there was some more interaction. I also picked wrong. :(

Really nice story and theme! I liked it :) I included this game in my Ludum Dare Compilation series, if you'd like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/EqAXn91dGLM

Absolutely loved it. Excellent use of the theme. The music as well really works well with the suspense of the murder mystery.

Simple, but well done. Nice writing and story.

Sounds are annoying, graphics are nice, music was great. It is too obvious who the traitor is, and that made me over think my choice. Good game! Unique take on the theme.

Really cool, watched it till the end where everyone was accusing each other.. till I saw that move over window which tells you how many votes someone gets which made it easier to find the traitor.. really cool game.. loved it!

I really liked this idea. Great use of the theme. I didn't quite understand the traitor's motive, but it was a novel experience none the less. Vastly enjoyed all the blunt accusations.

Very good concept ! It's funny, I made a project with the theme of the "One Traitor" too, and both results are totally different !
I liked the mood, and the feeling of clicking on each character.
I've encountered the same problem of the player being passive, but the analyse of each bubble makes us busy enough !
(don't hesitate to take a look to my "There Is Only One Traitor" !)

Cool story!

dyn 2013-12-17 16:49

Nice story and nice graphics. Sounds are a bit annoying.

ganbaregames 2013-12-17 17:34

Cool idea, but there's really no definitive way to guess the killer other than random guessing. I also don't understand why the characters shake from time to time.

korwegian 2013-12-17 18:24

Great game, never caught the traitor but still fun. Our games share a similar concept.

evilseanbot 2013-12-17 19:06

I love the little finger puppet people! I keep trying to figure out if people were shaking with guilt or if that was a bug. Maybe take that out for more clarity?

lewischaplin 2013-12-17 19:55

was nice dialogue not sure how i was meant to get the correct TRATOR but was fun

jdpalmer 2013-12-17 20:48

Neat idea. By main beef is that I read way faster than the text trickles onto the screen. Also it would have been nice to keep all the conversational clues available for comparison (like a chat log).

npgames 2013-12-17 21:20

I loved the shaking, it was simple but added a ton of character! I guessed too early and wrong.

christina-nordlander 2013-12-17 23:50

This is great! Good use of the theme, excellent music, enjoyable writing, and a generally cool concept. The character art reminds me of "Order of the Stick". I see no downsides to this game.

I didn't win (I'm pretty bad at whodunits), but I really enjoyed playing.

thatguy 2013-12-18 01:34

Amazing how much personality you crammed into those little block people. Well done!

iiechapman 2013-12-19 23:18

Very interesting take on the concept however it did not grip me, the text was kind of boring, all i do is sit and read text, then click on someone to execute them, it was hard to determine who was the murderer?

gatechgrad 2013-12-24 02:17

Nice game and good work writing all of the dialogue. It sort of reminds me of a cross between the show Survivor with the voting and the board game Clue. I played twice, guess wrong the first time and right the second time.
