How does your game fit the theme?
The game is a murder mystery that plays on the theme of CALM before the STORM. The CALM part is the initial ticket collection and admiring of art that is placed along the carridges. The STORM is triggered after you collect the tickets and notice that something sinister is going on. Become a detective and solve the case!

Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
The art and code for the project is created by myself using Godot documentation and tutorials. The music is licensed from Youtube Audio Library

A unique take on the theme.  I particularly liked the art and music.  The game feel was great.

I did have some trouble getting the game started though.  I strongly recommend upgrading to Godot 4.3 asap.  It comes with much improved web capabilities.

Thanks for playing! I am so glad you enjoyed the atmosphere of the game :) You are a legend for pointing that out, I think I may be on 4.2. I will upgrade my Godot version for next time. Oh would you mind sharing what the issue was with it loading? I am intrigued

I had to switch browsers, it wouldn't run on Chrome for me.  Maybe I didn't set something up.  If you search, you'll find lots of people had that problem with older Godot 4 versions:

This is a fun little game. One thing I did like and appreciate was the character movement. It felt so smooth and satisfying. I know it's only a small part of the game but it does make a difference in the long run. Music and art were wonderfully made as well. Pretty cool game bro :)

Developer

Thanks so much, I am glad you found the movement satisfying. Makes putting effort into the code/animations all the more worth it! All the best in the jam!
