Oh my god, this is so super-awesome, and no comments? Best adventure/detective game in the jam so far, good work! (The twist was totally unexpected and jaw-dropping BTW).

Oh my god, this is so super-awesome, and no comments? Best adventure/detective game in the jam so far, good work! (The twist was totally unexpected and jaw-dropping BTW).
The graphics style was awesome and quite original for the jam as we don't see that many games that aren't pixel-y in their aesthetic. The story was well made and kept me interested throughout. The writing was very solid and I had no issue with it. I loved the characters' destinct personalities and their names especially xD The music worked well to set the atmosphere. If I had a few things to say in terms of criticism would be potentially some sound effects and there being more of a game to this. It was more of a visual novel, which would have been fine, but you include the whole clues tab and everything but we never really get to use it. I understand time limitations but I still felt the need to address that. Other then those two things, it was a well written, interesting and lenghty entry with loads of charm!
Lovely entry, graphics and audio were really good, they create a great mood. Story was interesting with lots of charm, but in the end gathering clues felt just as a gimmick to advance the story forward (was the title/tavern name a pun on this?), and the player has no agency in how it unfolds in the end. Regardless, this is a very solid entry, congratulations!
OH MY GOD!!! This is fantastic.
Great game, it was the most enjoyed that I played on this LD for now.
Too bad for the trauma llama :(
Great game. Love the music and the art alongside the core mechanics.
this is awesome !!! definitely full 5 stars
really fun, nice job. good writing and a fun twist at the end :)
The puns.... oh the puns
Cool game man!
Ahh this was a good one. Didn't expect the ending, haha. Love all the art.. and the puns, of course! Great entry. :)
Love that awesome p'n'c mood! Congrats with the great entry!
Never in all my life have I seen so many puns in one game, I had a ball with this one. I'd have rated you well in all the categories you've opted out of as well. Good job!
Very nice !!!
Is it the following of another game ? I want a link ! ^^
Probably one of the best adventure/point and click game I see so far.
Excellent work! That's the first graphic adventure game I've seen on LD (but I guess you've done others in the past) - and it all comes together very nicely :) It worked better in full screen for me, because in the embed the clues came up in scrollable text boxes, but that's not much of a worry. Great stuff!
