good game but im stuck on the clock part even if I'm doing the drawing pretty good

Thank you! Probably a bug, probably related to the eraser and the fact that it doesn't erase all the way through, thanks!

such an amazing and unique game! I loved the art style, the voice acting, the story literally everything. I’m so excited to see more

Hey I played the game it's really fun and the hole drawing aspect of the game is very unique, and I loved it. But I wonder If I were to use a drawing tablet for the interaction would it still work?

Murder, infidelity, and a cliff hanger just another normal day (Death Sketchbook)

Oh, thank you! We honestly haven't tested it, but I think with mouse emulation it will work :)

I thought this was -very- interesting. This was so cool! I find this to be a pretty unique concept. I'm looking forward to the full release.

Thank you!!! ;)

I was hooked right from the start! Such an interesting way to tell a story! I don't normally like games that are "point and click" but this takes it to an entirely new level, and honestly, it is SO REFRESHING! I want the full game now!

P.S.

Did you "draw" any inspiration from the show LOST? There is a character on that show called "Sawyer" who has an extremely similar story as the character in your game!

(+1)

Thank you so much for your kind words! Yes, I'm a big fan of the LOST series and I really wanted to reference it :)

this was so cool! love the idea and mechanics... felt stuck at one point but got passed quickly! Great job!

(+1)

Thank you! :) Can you tell me at what point you took a long time to complete a level?

(+1)

just at the start I had missed some clues but once I figured the controlls better I didn't have any issues

Show post...

Sounds like a really interesting game! I can't wait to check it out when it drops on Steam.

You look like the type of person who'd enjoy this jam: WOW JAM

They have a very interesting platform and are even offering prizes xD

Hello!

I'm a Korean who just finished playing!

The game was so novel and interesting!!

I want to buy it as soon as it is officially released!!

Please consider if you can consider Korean translation!!

The game is so interesting that I think many Koreans will buy it!☆

*: .。. o(≧▽≦)o .。.:*☆

Thank you! We are thinking about translating into many languages, including Korean! :) We're glad you enjoyed it!

Such an original design. The plot is catching, maybe the writing could be better. But you got a very good gameplay loop with just a few features. I find a bug, if you find some new vocabulary while TABing you'll write with the eraser. Hope you have a good develpment!

Thanks for the kind words! We'll fix the bug!
