I keep getting stuck after getting the batteries out of the game console, my checklist only says i need to find where melvin is and no characters have anything left to say to me :( I try to talk to melvin but it keeps saying i need more evidence
How did you finish it? Mine is saying the same thing. It sucks because I wanted to finish the game but now i'm about to give up. Same deal, got everything done got batteries and all but it says I need to figure out where he is.
someone got me to press alt f4 when i was near the end so had to play it again... really good game though a little hard, I really enjoyed trying to figure things out and finally getting it right~
Super duper cute and fun game. I loved the music and the art. The music gave it the feel of a detective game even though you're just a hall monitor busting a kid for forgery and giving him detention. 10/10.
Really cute game. I love how the atmosphere and dialogue gives off the atmosphere of the classic detective puzzles games with a murder or robbery to solve. It's quick and easy too if you take to time to look at almost everything. Tho, I don't get what that frog pencil was for. Something to throw the player off? Anyways, it's pretty straightforward when played right at fun. 5 stars.
That was a very enjoyable experience from start to finish! Well, barring that time the downloaded version crashed on me, which happened after I talked to Gilbert the first time; I'd been collecting the quarters and tried to click and use them on him, but the icon was that of my whistle and when I clicked on Gilbert, the game threw up an error screen. I switched to the browser version, which worked fine... though that may be because I avoided doing the above.
That aside, the game is obviously well-crafted and the pixel style is great: The environments fit the game perfectly and are filled with humorous asides and the character sprites are filled with personality. The GUI works excellently and has a friendly, chunky feel without being too "kiddy," and I think both the writing and the gameplay is accessible and enjoyable for actual kids as well as older players... though most kids probably won't get a lot of the references. I especially enjoyed your writing, which was witty throughout and absolutely nailed the pulpy crime/film noir style, which is easy to parody but difficult to parody well especially in an all-ages way. The BGM fit the atmosphere perfectly and I was genuinely satisfied after solving the final puzzle; the puzzles themselves were pretty straightforward, but that's probably more accessible to people who aren't familiar with the adventure game genre.
The game may be short, but I had a lot of fun with it. Thanks for making it available!
That was good, and very funny. I did not read the instructions and spend quite a bit of time trying to combine items in the inventory. If only i knew about the cheat console before… :)

Nice game, I felt like everything was a bit too obvious at the start but at the end you had me stumped. :D
The arrow UI that is supposed to lead to "The Front" is missing...

This game is awesome! If you decide to update it at all, a soound effect when an item gets added into your inventory would be a welcome addition.
The cheat console works great!
