How does your game fit the theme?
This is a game about diving deeper into a mystery! Also, it's fish themed, so it works on both levels.
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
Yes! We had a team of three and we did everything from scratch, except a still frame at the end which is credited inside the game.

Wow! This one is amazing! Fantastic job on this game! I love the art style! I loved the story told in this game!
Pretty much a perfect game in my eyes! My only complaint would be that I was a little confused with the interaction system (Sometimes I had to press E while other times I had to go into the notebook), but I really did enjoy everything this game had to offer! (Also I knew it was the dolphin, probably because I know how they can truly act sometimes)
Wonderfully written murder mystery! I like your interpretation of the theme too and it was fun piecing together the mystery.
Wow, so cool detective game. I love this theme and humor, art, music. Best candidate for me!
i enjoyed this one much.
Its amazing this was a game made in only a week. Great art style, narrative, and characters
Really love the aesthetics and pixel art but I found the pixel art font a bit hard to read. Well done!
Absolutely incredible that this was made in a week, it feels like a finished product!
The only thing I wish it had was some kind of chat-log, which would make keeping track of leads and who you've talked to a bit easier.
The art, dynamic music, story, characters and design were amazing, some of the best I've ever seen in a gamejam! There were some item duplication glitches when you interact with some things multiple times but other than that and some moments where I wasn't very sure what the game wanted me to do I had great time, well done!
Art, amazing! Story, amazing! Sounds, amazing! Feel, amazing! Diving deeper into the case fits the theme really well and i had a blast playing this! 10/10 best game of the jam by far!
The fact you made this in just a week is insane. The sprite work is amazing and the game has so much charm to it. Incredible job!
Ok... This is awesome.... What yall have here is pretty much a full product already. It is unbelievable that this was made in only 7 days given the polish. Congratulations !
Really awesome job! The artstyle is incredible, the colors and the soundtrack really set the right mood, the gameplay is fun and the story is a lot interesting. Incredible job!
great game very fun to play
Words cannot express how amazing your game is. I would literally pay to play a full game like this. I had tons of laughs reading all the wordplays and dialogues. The art is amazing, the music is amazing, the subtle changes across the rooms... Solid 30/30, keep it up!
Incredible!! My original idea was to make a mermaid detective VN, but I couldn't figure it out so I gave up. I'm so happy you made it, so much fun and so well done!
Wow! What a game! You definitely deserve to win. I had so much fun solving the mystery and loved how you incorporated the theme! 5 stars all around, in my opinion. Good luck! I hope to see your game come out on top :D
this is EXACTLY what i was looking forward to playing in this jam!
Great game, great story, great everything. It's amazing it was made in just 7 days. Congrats to the dev team! Absolutely loved it! :)
Amazing work on the presentation of the game! Looks fantastic and plays really well as a murder mystery. Loved the characters both in terms of their looks and what they had to say. One of the best games on here for sure. Massive well done!
