Awesome game! I really like what you've done with the ascii art, it gives it a nice retro-feel. Its obvious that a lot of work was put into creating storyline and content for it.
I've played the updated version, and I got further than the milkman's house. After I got sent to prison, I was back in the victim's house, and Gordon kept saying to foller him, but he didn't go anywhere. I was stuck in the victim's house.
I liked the style, the art was really cool. The story kept me interested, although repeated pressing of arrows was my only big complaint, like if he walked continuously and say, shift arrow for interaction,
Really liked the art style and it fit the theme well, so overall I enjoyed your entry.
I only played through it once although it seems as though an alternate outcome is possible, if not I think it would add to the game a lot. Without an alternate ending this plays more like a visual novel with no real choice.
Clever and horrifying. The idea of being in a cell having been framed, endlessly replaying past events in your mind to no avail, terrifies me. That everything in the world could be looked at, however inconsequential, was excellent at giving the locations identity, and made it feel like a real investigation. That some of the apparently inconsequential things gained meaning when I looked closer at descriptions on my second playthrough made things even more wonderful. Good work.
I got stuck in the milkmans house (I think it was). While Gordon was out, I tried leaving the house and the dialog with Gordon popped up. When he got back and I talked to him he kept we were gonna check up on the local gang but nothing happened. This was on my second time through. Awesome ASCII art. The portraits have character to them.

aside from that, i liked it. nice entry
I understand the plot as being Gordon yourself. Probably completely wrong.

Overall a nice, interesting little game, had fun.
Sadly I can not see it because there is no timelapse video of you doing it. Would have liked to see it though.
Good points on theme, on graphics, on overall a nicely done project.
Especially the ascii art : very well done, each character choice is just perfect !
