Codename: Who's Guilty

Hello. You know me as Botahamec(maybe), but you don’t know how to pronounce that so call me Mike. I’m developing a game called Codename: Who’s Guilty. I added “codename” to the beginning to make it interesting. Maybe it worked. Did it? I don’t know.

About the Game

And before you ask, no. This is NOT related to Game World Studios. This is a project I’m developing in my free time that I think is pretty good.

The game is like this, you’re a detective in some city, I don’t have a definite answer as to what the town will be called, maybe Buffalo? But, while you’re staying at a hotel, a murder occurs there. You have to solve who did it by interrogating suspects and looking for clues in between-day sequences. The gameplay is very similar to 80 Days

The game will appear on Game Jolt for free. Or at most, for the price of an ad. One ad that you look at once on the download page, that I make about $0.002 off of. Downloading it multiple times is very much appreciated. It’ll also play online for those of you who don’t want to waste time downloading it. Which is fine. I still get get my 1/5 of a cent.

Just to clarify: The ad will be on the download page, not the game.

Looks great! Looking forward to it!

yes
that screenshot is some fine quality.

I’m more interested in the concept tbh

I was surprised when I saw that. I’m pretty sure the game itself doesn’t have that high quality. But I must of been wrong if I was able to take that picture, or Snipping Tool automatically adds in text when it recognises it. But I doubt it.

obviously.

@Botahamec that was sarcasm, right…?
or do I just not-get it

you do not get it

Was what sarcasm? Because I was surprised for some reason.

EDIT: I looked at the game again, and that picture is surprisingly accurate.

I’d like a more simplistic text-based look to the game.

So, you like what’s in the screenshot?

I think it’s actually quite cool as is, cause it’s like visual novel and leaves a lot down to imagination.

Yeah, but without decent visuals to set the tone, it’ll lack in atmosphere. An interactive novel… At least it’s sort of original.

I can pixel art a bit.

That’s true, but I want the player to be able to see the character they’re talking to. Even though I like your offer @Cazran, I feel that pixel graphics wouldn’t do this game’s atmosphere justice. But I’ve seen other games with the same atmosphere use pixel art. Maybe you can help with the backgrounds. But the picture has to be 2880 x 2180. If you’re still interested, PM me.

one background will take me like a week

Hey guys! @WaveJones will be helping to write the story for Codename: Who’s Guilty. I’m still looking for an artist though, so whoever wants to help can PM me.

I can do some photomanipulation now, here’s a few examples:

but

you are just a Cazran

how

@Botahamec what art style are you going for and what art do you need?

@Rex0099 I need backgrounds such as a police station, characters, and a title screen.

As for art style, I want the art to be drawn but look somewhat realistic.
