Really great vibe and the music was cool.
It's a shame there weren't any more close ups of the other crime scenes though.

Movement could have used a bit of improvement - not being able to walk diagonally, and getting stuck on corners felt really awkward.

The noise over everything was nice, but maybe a bit much. The static noise/dithering on the flashlight also looked a little weird in motion.

And after getting the chainsaw it was a little annoying having the sound play every time you interacted with something.

Thanks for the detailed feedback - this is really useful :) 

I'd deliberately restricted the movement to 4 way as I wanted to evoke the feeling of playing a gameboy game, but feedback seems to be that 8 way would be preferred - I'll make sure for future projects that I consider whether a particular retro-style limitation actually improves gameplay or is just my nostalgia. 

I'll also bear in mind less is more with screen space effects, and try to provide options to disable or adjust the strength of the effect :) 

The chainsaw noise is my bad - didn't realise until too late! 

Thanks for playing :)
