Riley Kline: Circle of Suspects

I don’t know why I’m doing this. But I know…
…I have to find out the truth. I need to know why he died.
That’s the reason investigators exist… the reason I became one…
I have to keep going… and pursue the truth like I always did…! 

April 22, 2123.
There's just one thing separating Riley Kline from becoming an interplanetary investigator: a 12-hour trip on a space ship followed by an exam. However, just as she gets on the Yasai Space Shuttle, a passenger is murdered in a locked room. One of the few passengers with an alibi, Riley has to investigate the murder, while being haunted by memories of her past...

Inspired by mystery visual novel classics such as Ace Attorney and Danganronpa, a point-and-click crime scene investigation is followed by arguing the facts of the case with fellow investigators and witnesses in order to figure out the truth. While another person is making their argument, you will interrupt them to ask or answer questions or present evidence, possibly even changing their train of thought completely.

I made Riley Kline: Circle of Suspects back in 2016. Now, eight years later, I'm working on a remake with improved graphics, writing, gameplay and sound effects. You can download and play the first third of the 2016 version if you'd like, but keep in mind this does not reflect the quality of the final product.

Stay tuned for progress updates in the devlog.
