The detective has a few open cases.
Every day it's getting harder to get out of bed.
What is a detective who doesn't detect?
LEFT UNDETECTED is a tiny story about not wanting to do the thing you've done all your life, and how awful that can feel.
Arrow keys or swipe to move the phone handset or advance the dialog text. The detective is lying on the couch.
Made with Bitsy, the tiny, adorable game construction kit. I made some modifications to support scripting exits to new rooms inside dialogue, fetching game data from a URL, and setting the page title from the game data.
The Bitsy editor only permits 2-frame animations, but the engine supports multi-frame animations if you hand-edit the game data. I'm using a few 3-frame animations that were pretty easy to add.
Made for Global Game Jam 2018, theme "Transmission".
All you detectives, drop me a line on Twitter. I'd love to hear what you think.
