Everyone is a Suspect by Catmoo

[raw]
made by Catmoo for LD34 (COMPO)
Welcome to the town of murder!

Talk to those in the town and look for clues to try and unravel who the killer is. Prove the police office wrong by finding out information that they didn't!

There was a lot that didn't get in and the end fell short a little, but I hope you enjoy! I think I was a little too relaxed with getting the game done.

Also the audio doesn't queue so if you wait out for lines to finish it will make it a little more easy to hear.

Also I'm very confused to the "I think I know who did it line" and why it sounds like it does. I have no idea. As it sounds fine everywhere except the moment it plays in game.

*EDIT* I've added a build with bug fixes, fixing a variable issue with the police officer, I believe all the occurrences where you can get stuck and an audio issue where a line plays very loud

I think one of the intersections leads to the wrong location - I keep getting trapped in what seems like the wrong part of a map. http://imgur.com/zmmKKnv

Super awesome that there's so much voice acting. I did end up getting that bug where you get trapped :/ Great job though!

Was able to play through it after the update!
Impressive to see a fully voiced game in the compo entries. I keep snickering at the "I trade meat for money" line.

@sP0CkEr2 It's not an installer it just runs, nothing is installed on your machine to play it

Haha awesome, some of those lines were brilliant, is there actually a definitive person that did it? I guessed, or does it always leave it open?

I found the road system very confusing, sometimes one road would seem to take me to two different places, took me a while to find the last area that I hadn't been to.

I thought it was a shame that the detective doesn't cycle around everywhere Murder She Wrote style :P

Super cute graphics, very good audio, and fitting to the theme, a growing deduction screen would have been awesome.. though totally too much for 48 hours :D

I like the graphics and animations. But I wasn't able to understand the dialogs, because I'm not english native speaker. Subtitles would be nice.

Interesting game, I like murder mysteries. I wish I had had a little more to go on in the beginning, but that's definitely something. Enjoyed it (still I am clueless about who dunnit).

It's very hard to know where we are going on the map.
Lovely voice ^^

Really nice entry. I loved the voice acting and the plot... Although I couldn't see how the plot ended because I think I clicked going to the next region too fast, and the game stopped working? Really neat and innovative entry. 4/5

Really enjoyed the graphics and all the voice acting, you rarely see that in a ludum dare entry. :)

Cool game, voice acting was spot on! The road navigation system, however, was beyond consusing. I think it needs some kind of map... I'm not sure who the killer was, but the guy who played "terr ah ria" was my prime suspect. Very solid entry!

Got stuck as well in the bug, and overall the navigation got me confused, but great job here, congrats
