Paper Trails

UPDATE (10:04pm, 10/3/22): Patched the export settings causing all portraits to not load; also fixed some sounds not starting. Should be playable now!!!!

Play as a hard-boiled detective on the case after an explosion kills the mayor. Swing your way around a cork board linking clues together and interrogate a zany cast of suspects to find the culprit.

ABOUT THEME:

The story is supposed to take place over the course of 10-second intervals, altho we realized that we didn't add any way to see this in game until the last 10 seconds before submission (fitting).

Expect a director's cut post-jam version in the future with a viewable timeline of the events of the mystery as they unfold!
