IMPOTANT: If the game is running slow press 'q' to cycle through the quality settings

There are four murderers on the loose in Monster City. To track them down you must use the best weapon at your disposal, your powers of deduction. But that's not all! Organising these murders is the mysterious Mr Big, and it's your job to take him down too.

INSTRUCTIONS

WASD - Move

MOUSE - Look around

Left Mouse Button - Arrest suspect

To question monsters approach them.

Q - Cycles through the quality settings. Use this if the game runs slow for you.

WHAT'S MISSING

I ran out of time so didn't get to add sound effects. I also wanted more unique monsters for various set pieces. I also wanted to add a lot more detail, especially in the market and homes.

INSPIRATIONS

Bernband - For anyone who has played Bernband this inspiration is probably clear. For those that haven't played it go play it, it's awesome.

Eye of the Beholder, Dungeon Master - Or real any of those early dungeon crawlers.

CHANGE LOG

Fixed a bug that meant murders sometimes didn't appear. Oops!

Added a quality setting so hopefully people on slower machines can play too.

Optimised it as much as I can. Hopefully it'll run comfortably on the lowest quality setting for most people now.

Enjoy!
