Tales From The Arcade: Starship Murder

It is an okay game; short and simple, and it doesn't pretend to be anything else. The killer can be any of the three characters and this changes with every playthrough, which adds a little bit replayability to the game. The soundtrack, along with the artwork and dialogue, helps to create a tense atmosphere. There are a few typos, which shouldn't be there as this is essentially a text-based game. And it's also pity that I couldn't enjoy the dialogue / story that much, as I had to juggle this with fixing the ship, but that definitely adds to the tension.

The hard shadows and art style of the sprites give the characters such a unsettling feel and I really enjoyed the sci-fi look of the interface, it did feel as though you were seeing the world through the eyes of the AI, hehe. As for the concept, the idea of solving a crime in five jumps is very neat, I feel like this has the potential for a more ambitious mystery! My only complaint here would be that I couldn't really focus on the dialogues while trying to patch up the ship because the errors popped up too fast, which I guess adds to the rush, but I couldn't figure out who to listen to at times and I would have appreciated a little pause or maybe a "case notes" tab where you could quickly see what you know? Anyhow, I don't know if a good ending is achievable or if I'm just not very good at the game (very possible), but I get that it's experimental, so it was interesting all the same! A little tutorial on the description could help getting a grasp of the controls, I think. That being said, everything feels consistent, which I appreciate. Good work!

This was very cool I loved this game not only the art is pretty funny but also great

The last jump is overwhelming at first... Cool concept. Love it

A Manly game for manly man

Nicely done! Took a few tries, but it was fun getting the right culprit at the end. Appreciated the interesting way of taking care of the killer, as well as the varied endings. Solid work with the art and music as well.
