Great job, amazing how much work you got done in a weekend!
I also checked out your game. Nice artwork! :)
I played your game and put a marker on it after I played it, should be Part 2 of my Ludum Dare streams..

You rather enjoy stripping the player of parts of their body, don't you? :P
I think that tapped into one of my biggest murderer-related fears, the torture, taking apart my senses. When the head cracking happened I shuddered.
I honestly can't say I enjoyed this game, but I didn't hate it. I experienced exactly what I think you intended for me to experience, and that's not easy to achieve. Well done.
I think maybe the pacing at the very start was a bit slow for me, but this is really hard to get exactly right without time to playtest so that is understandable!
also itdve been nice if there was more freedom in the exploration, so you had more natural ways to find your choices? thats the really good part about point-and-click, that it sometimes took you hours of wandering about to find the next action progress. However i get that this is a jam so that was probably not achievable in the time - but maybe now you have the mechanics down you could expand the game out to be more free roaming?
well done and i hope you enjoyed the jam!
