Great mood and love the writing style. Is there no ending ? I got stuck at a constantly repeating message on black screen.

I think it's very neat you used real looking pictures and made an animal forest. It has a good atmosphere and nice dialogs.

The most photorealistic game of LD35!

btw,
I didn't see the HTML5 version of the game. Why don't you embed it here?

joshua_burr 2016-04-19 15:58

@varuns Thanks for playing! The HTML5 version should be at the top of the itch page in the link, it can take a little while to appear. I would embed it here but the ludum dare site only allows games that are max 900x600 so this game wouldn't fit (1024x640).

A lot of lol's playing through this. Great writing. I got to the end. Can't wait to see the next episode!

Rare visual approach, pretty funny. Music is nice. Moody game.

Excellent!!

Well done in getting so much content in so little time. The usage of photo's of real scenery gives the game a real unique look. Very cool! Would work well as a mobile game too. Perhaps try and release it?

I really liked this one, story was engaging and the graphic style made me laugh a couple of times. Good job!

ayawaska 2016-04-20 15:26

You've set a great mood. :)

Quite fancy-looking amusement program you have there my good sir. It is my utmost pleasure to have played it!

decentsauce 2016-04-20 19:36

Awesome! Too bad it wasn't so long. Would have liked to play more. :)

johnwatmuff 2016-04-20 22:23

great dialogue, see?

landosystems 2016-04-21 01:36

What a goofy game! Super entertaining, great work!

josefnpat 2016-04-21 09:24

Oh this was very fun! Reminds me of classic point and click adventures, but adult noir style. Nice job!

ployer 2016-04-21 12:26

nicely done. always enjoy a point and click adventure

luquio 2016-04-21 18:02

hey really great idea, loved dialogues!

arskiainen 2016-04-21 18:06

This was really cool. On the whole it works very well.

arzi 2016-04-21 19:05

This was fun! Using the photos is a good idea and works well with the story. I always respect making a point and click adventure for LD :) The ending was a bit abrupt though.

randomhuman 2016-04-22 08:23

It's a shame the story ends so abruptly, but what is there is fun and really well written. The visual style is great as well.

axoona 2016-04-22 22:00

Very fun game with good and funny dialogs, I really enjoyed it! it's a pity it stops so abruptely though just when the link to the theme is mentionned

grooveman 2016-04-22 22:35

You had me at the decision to call the frog Freddo. Christ.

I am amused that another entry is also a comedy detective noir leaning on the 20s slang; though your use is much broader and consistent than my own.

There might be an issue with event flagging? I talked to everyone before I spoke to Sailor Jerry (I didn't realise I could click on the sewer pipe) and so his dialogue made a lot less sense in places.

I love the way you put the art together, and the game is just hilarious. Nice job!

lereveur 2016-04-26 20:46

Oh, an investigation game, I like this ! And characters are hilarious. On look and language. Great job ! :)

larzan 2016-05-08 21:00

Beautiful, very funny and well done, love the art + story telling. A gem! :)
