I'm really into textual quests, so I liked the game. The graphic is also really beautiful, looks like you spent a lot of time on it. The audio was a bit annoying, but that's just me...

The art was pretty nice to look at. I would probably change to sound effects for the buttons, it got a little annoying after a few mouse overs.

The theme is great and its a really good start. Doing additonal work for the play+ and you would have something that people would really like to see. Also great artwork, it has a noir-esk thriller feel

I loved the art, and the audio was very nice, however simple it was. I didn't get the gameplay, although finishing the game twice...

Great art, dark and spooky feel. I enjoyed it well done

Great job, I enjoyed the dialogue and art. The mouseover sounds were a bit annoying and some music would have been nice, but overall a good entry!

Nice change of pace to the other entries. Intriguing artstyle and narrative.

I got excited to have picked right (after a couple of deaths from contemplating for too long), unfortunate that you ran out of time, I'd have liked to see an ending!

I love these kinds of games and wish you had had more time to flesh it out. If you do more with this, consider getting someone to copyedit and also make the font size larger. Good luck!

Despite missing a proper ending, i think this game is pretty solid and if given more time, it can turn into something great!

For the time given, you have done an amazing job!

@carraka "consider getting someone to copyedit" haha so very true, my spelling is awful!

The ending is hilarious. Great game

The changing tunes of the options are such a neat little touch. I'm still not super sure about who did it, but the bar on top for your status as an undercover is a neat gameplay bit, and I wouldn't mind seeing more chapters of this game with that mechanic in different scenarios. Hope you got your sleep!

very clean looking game, gj ! Can't help but feeling disappointed for the ending, We used the same tools but for a very different result x) Cheers!

Hey, nice graphics. Short game but nice graphics (I hear you ran out of time...) :-)

I like the subtle sound effects and the background image is really cool. I see that you spent most of your time on the graphics and writing the dialog which is fine for a dialog-based game of course ;-)

The art reminded me of old good flash quest games :) Nice touch with different musical notes when selecting options. Wish there was an into, but otherwise a nice text game.
