Known Bugs
V0.2: We believe that have squashed most of the major bugs and the ending of the game can now be reached! There is one known instance of clicking to investigate a certain object after the first time causing you to get stuck; we have temporarily implemented an "unstuck" button by holding F5 for 5 seconds. If you experience any other issues please let us know!
We are currently in the process of documenting known bugs!
As a disclaimer: on the day of the jam submission, the Godot project's UIDs began acting up and introduced a large quantity of bugs that we are in the middle of documenting.

Played this for 2 days (not being able to save was a small frustration, but I found a bug(?) where you can tab out of the game and then restart with your progress intact after the opening scene, which helped).
The writing is top-notch and the puzzles are engaging. I like the method of slowly uncovering clues making the game a lot more interesting and fun to play than the standard visual novel where the only player input is a dialogue choice here and there.
I think the only thing bringing this down are the bugs. Namely, if you click a note on the dresser on the left, it seems to disable any more clicks in the game (at which tab to quit and restart becomes pretty useful) and at one point the options menu in the journal became inaccessible for some reason.
Other than those issues, it was a solid experience and I was super glad to play it.
Fun game! Would love more mystery games in this setting. ;)
That means a lot to all of us! 🥺 💖
We definitely plan to make more games with this cast, so thanks for your interest and stay tuned >:D
:D
(copying jam project comment here!) The title screen and the skill check mechanic are incredibly cool! I really enjoyed exploring and reading all the details about Everent, Eunae and the world building (love the magic spaghetti ace attorney reference!). I love them so much!! The poster bit especially made me laugh out loud. The puzzles themselves were very engaging, after some things were revealed did I begin to see the rest in a different light. The ending was such a ride! I hope I can see more of them again someday!
Our games have the same name :))
Games with birds solidarity! 🐤 🙌
