Somewhat good with the music and art, but the way you make the player have the options to decide what to do is not great.

thank you! yes, I'll definitely better that in future similar games.
too much art, too little gameplay. instructions not clear. options arent good. Im trying words that should do something, proof, alibi, crime, victim, case, accuse, nothing... I think the game needs to be developed more.
also, after i type a word, it seems to want me to confirm or click first before i can type the next word. it ignores whatever i just typed. dont make it like that.
Even following your walkthrough, I'm not seeing where any kind of action anybody would possibly grasp intuitively would lead them to any new information to decipher your story. It feels like this wasn't written to make sense to anybody but yourself. Second-guessing the author doesn't make it challenging, it makes it arbitrary.
Given how many times the player is expected to rewind it would flow a *lot* better if you at least mapped everything to keyboard controls so we didn't have to constantly swap between the keyboard and mouse to work your interface.
Based on the walkthrough link, this doesn't accept near enough answers to make it fun.

it was made in 48 hours, what do you expect?
Not really my cup of tea when it comes to courtroom games.
