Lies & Legalities [WIP] UPDATED 07/21/24

Boy, the narration certainly spends a lot of time telling me how I’m supposed to feel only for me to immediately disagree with next choice. Which is immediately disregarded.

Like when you get the pro bono case

*you feel this
*and this
*and you believe this

[Choice]

*actually I don’t care and I’m here to make fat stacks on stacks on stacks

Or with the rival guy

*I don’t care about him. He’s background noise.

Only for the narration to say

“HE’S IMPORTANT AND A MAJOR DRIVING FORCE BEHIND YOUR CAREER”

That’s not what I picked but whatever I guess.

Hiii! I really like the concept! I normally don’t do games that involve detective work because I’m extremely incompetent lmao.

In certain instances, you gave a vast array of choices but the quantity didn’t matter much because there wasn’t a lot of variety. Most of them were, like, the same thing but with a different font?

F.ex.

Character B: did you choose our case?

“Well, no. But it’s not like I drew the short straw.” 1

“My supervisor assigned me this case, but I’m truly committed to it.” 2

“Nope, but my boss thought I’d be perfect for this case.” 3(?)

“My supervisor assigned me to this case, but I treat every case with the utmost seriousness.” 2

“The boss gave me this case. But I don’t take on cases unless I’m going to give them my all.” 2

“My boss assigned me your case, and I’m thrilled to be here.” 2

“My supervisor gave me this case, but I assure you, I intend to win - at any costs.” 2

“My boss assigned me this case, but I’m deeply committed to helping families like yours.” 2

So, you could probably reduce 8 to 3.

I can see the subtle changes in nuance. But… those additions didn’t really seem necessary. Idk. :sob:

This looks promising and really amazing. I’ve always loved the medical and law field, along with detectives, and spies. So, this is refreshing read, and I hope you continue this.

Already made me attached to Luis and makes me want to help him already, and really curious why he would take the blame, he seems a really nice kid. I kinda have an idea why, but there just seems to be alot of possibilities.

I really hope this will continue in the future.

I know you haven’t been on the platform for a while but was your game inspired by ace attorney to some extent? I’m mostly asking cuz the mc has a special power just like the defense attorneys from AA.
