You've been hired as an Inquisitor to help track down Rebel spies seeking to bring down the glorious empire of the Solar System by stealing some secret plans.
You don't know what the plans are. That's above your pay grade.
Using clues uncovered by your faithful Agent X and the help of IG-BOT and his Imperial Criminal Database, you can track down the Rebel Scum and reacquire the stolen plans.
Great game. I love the whole tininess thing, I just with that the one screen could be a little...larger. A lot of fun, not challenging but satisfying. Great job.
Fantastic job! That was quite fun. You should consider making this a mobile game or something, because I could see certain people spending a lot of time playing something like this (especially if it was more challenging). I loved the subtle space trivia as well - overall, sweet game!
Yaaaay I did it. Fun way to learn some planetary trivia. Good "it is a mystery" music. I enjoyed the feel of narrowing down the potential suspects. I don't think this fits the theme at all, though. Not that I blame you, this was a terrible theme.
My nod to the theme was that everything occurred IG-BOT CAM computer screen, and you're using that screen to get into contact with the the agents, IG-BOT, and access the criminal database.
I figured whoever the Space Inquisitor was, they spent most of their time in an office on a giant Imperial Spaceships, checking in with all the lackeys who were doing the actual investigation.
Great! Reminds me of the old Carmen Sandiego game I played in school. I also enjoyed having to google info to know where to go, I learned a bit while playing :) Wonderful entry.
Pretty solid! I was surprised by the Google involvement :) It's like one of those old educational games - I played Eagle Eye Mysteries (and In EEM London), aw really loved them :)
Didn't find much in terms of design fault, other than the fact I don't know for how long you could keep a modern person for with this kind of mechanic :)
But that's for a longer term game of course! No problem now! :)
Love the graphics! I Included it in part 4 of my Ludum Dare 31 compilation video series, if you would like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/Kdfz6b6_ebE
Hehe, my entry was initially meant to be something like "Where on the Screen is Carmen Sandiego" -- it looks like you got a lot more of the investigative stuff than I did!
Lovely graphics, smooth interface... and I like the sinister undercurrent that had me asking "...wait, are *we* the bad guys?"
I didn't get the connection to the theme until I read your description in the comments. Perhaps a couple of in-game word changes ("My fuel levels", "IG-BOT is travelling to...") might have helped make the connection.
first - thanks for making the python game easy to play - usually it is a nightmare - great graphics and music - nice mechanics - adding to play again list

Great artwork, by the way.

Fun game anyway, good job!
