You are Rebecca, a Private Detective working on a string of unsolved murders in her city.
This is a super short (< 10 minutes) sidescroller/point and click adventure. We were aiming to tell a more in depth story, but time got the better of us!
Things didn't quite go according to plan this LD, we've just finished in time, with almost all the bits we planned added, but we could've done with a bit more time to polish!

It isn't running on my computer. It flashes a text window that says uncaught exception or something similar, it's too fast to read. It seems to be a bug, because it doesn't say it's missing anything.
Sorry about that! I made the build very last minute, and I'm not all too familiar with Haxe! EdgeOwl is putting together (working!) builds for Windows, Mac and Linux now.
The crime scenes look pretty good! I liked the idea of clicking on the evidence tags. Unfortunately it was really difficult to tell how to exit the park scene and when I got to the Mayor wanting to talk part and the game stopped taking input. I wasn't sure if it just failed to load the next scene or if that was the end.
Loved the graphics on this one! Murder scenes were excellent. It was very hard to tell how to exit the park; moving the orange marker off the orange tape would help. Overall, loved the buildup. Good work!
