All mEn fall...


Well, since Ping' and Gumpei were so nice to take the bait and post their comp thread first, I no longer have any shame to post this! ;D

About:
Sooo... Yeah, this is my comp entry for the "Never-Ending Turnabout" Competition hosted by Bad Player and Blackrune. Am I going to tell you what it's about? No. Am I going to tell you anything about the premise or the crime? No. Give any screens? No. See, as I mentioned before, I believe it's always best to go as blind as possible into cases (I mean, if you knew the premise of all the cases from all the original AA cases without actually playing them first, a part of the fun would be ruined, wouldn't it now? ...That's the way I look at it, anyway.)

So, instead, I'm just going to present you with the links to the case:

Parts:

Part 1
Part 2
Part 3


Please note that this trial uses .apng images, so you will HAVE to play it in Firefox if you want the experience I would like you to have. ;) Also, keep in mind that all of this trial's custom content is on DropBox, so please be patient if it's not loading for you. ...That being said, if you can see the case logo above or my avatar, you are most likely good to go.

Credits:
DWaM - Well, main writer guy, I suppose.
Evolina de Luna - She helped out during planning, giving ideas to the plot and planned out a couple of the CEs.
The Fury Wraith - Beta-Tester
Bad Player and Blackrune - hosting the comp.
Also, for sprites:
Spoiler : Possible Spoilers :
LunchPolice - sprites of Eileen Dawns
Eldariub - Victor Eisenhower's sprites

Time to do a patented STREAM OF CONCIOUSNESS!
Spoiler : Part 1 :
YIKES 3300 FRAMES.
Apollo's got that murderous look in his eye...
OOH NICE MUSIC. PS1 era?
...E. Reminds me of Kid Pix.
I am expecting custom sprites, JSYN.
NOOOOOO WRIGHT'S DEAD
The prosecutor and defense are friends...
DID OUR POOR LITTLE deadly assassin NOT GO TO SCHOOL
Oh, he's the detective. Kay.
I guess this Cross guy gets really Cross sometimes - *Shot*
Oh so that's his name. Phillip the detective. Nice.
inb4 playing as prosecutor
Here's the attorney. I gotta say, you're using those placeholder sprites well...
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALT
Yes, she did confess. ...That never turns out well.
I'm still your lawyer, whether. Not weather.
Miles Edgeworth Asylum...
You played that. IT GOES WEEP, IT GOES EH IT GOES WEEP, IT GOES EH EH
5 known murders commited by E were known. Redundant.
Wow. Justice is blind, after all.
Of course you'll think of some incredibly complicated way to solve it, of course.
Dat Franzy recolor.
Dat Nicky boy.
I like Yalt's profile picture.
ZOMG ADULT REFERENCE
Please let there be a guy named jason in this trial
The judge IS making - oh, he's talking about himself
KIDSH THESHE DAYSH
I don't think that E is really Groud.
You're differentiating Cross from Nick. Good job.
Powers Employment. Power Semployment. hee hee.
GIMME A LIST OF THE MUSIC YOU CHOSE.
Yalt is wearing gloves, you idiot.
THE JUDGE IS COMPETENT WHAT.
Now for some REAL gameplay.
"Flattering is one of the things" Should be flattery.
Saving right here.
Interesting choice...
I see a statement I will press.
How long IS this testimony?!
...What...?
ACK DISSONANT ORCHESTRAL ARRANGEMENTS.
"resting your case?" My thoughts exactly.
"I understand perfecty" PERFECTLYYYYYY
Wait, we're back in the present now.
MORE POE QUOTES. EEEEEEEEE
This case is too enthralling. STREAM STOP.

Hm. Perhaps I should've rephrased that a bit, yes...

Dat Franzy recolor.
Hey, it works! ...She doesn't have a whip and she's female, I mean. She fit the description of the Dawns I was looking for.
Dat Nicky boy.
I like Yalt's profile picture.

Depends. Do you want the Jason from Heavy Rain or the Jason from Friday the 13th? I mean, you won't get either, but just out of curiousity.
The judge IS making - oh, he's talking about himself
KIDSH THESHE DAYSH
I don't think that E is really Groud.
You're differentiating Cross from Nick. Good job.
Thanks. I was really trying to get the point aCross that they are two different characters. ...See what I was talking about about the puns?
Powers Employment. Power Semployment. hee hee.
GIMME A LIST OF THE MUSIC YOU CHOSE.
Oh, it's mostly just Umineko and G-Senjou no Maou. I'll see if I can dig up the list sometime later... :P

Trust me, compared to all the grammar mistakes, I don't really think spelling is that big of a factor here... ^^"
Wait, we're back in the present now.
You could've stayed longer in the past in my original draft, you know. ...But then you would've gotten bored fast.
MORE POE QUOTES. EEEEEEEEE
Doe, Poe~
This case is too enthralling. STREAM STOP.
Thanks for playing so far. If you actually survive until the end, I might just give you a cookie.
...Might.
Considering this ended up taking Rune 8 hours Hm, or... not? Well, anyway, I'm not expecting people to finish this quickly, but... You know... Would be nice...

I'd post my stream of consciousness, but I think it'd still be too potentially spoilerish at this point. xP
(not that people are supposed to look at it before finishing the case, but they might come desperately looking for hints if they get stuck.)

For now I'll just point this out:
Spoiler : not really a spoiler, but potentially a bug :
I was unable to proceed past the first testimony in part 2. Even after I looked in the walkthrough and followed the steps, it wouldn't continue. Looks like your average variable problem... or the trial just decided to glitch up for me. Just check again if that thing works as intended.

Gaah, found the problem. ...Am I allowed to edit the trial at this point to fix this? :/

@Zeta: Oh, trust me... You will be... You will- Wait, that doesn't make any sense... Welp, let's just say you might not be saying that tune when you get to Part 3. ;)

You can edit that.
It'd be silly to force you to keep it unbeatable because judging takes forever. (just don't add any new convos or anything)

Spoiler : Stream of Conciouisness Part 1-2 :
It's nice being able to do these. AND YOU ACTUALLY RESPOND TO THEM.
At least I saved! I have the cell phone and window now.
Hold on a second...
If the autopsy report says nothing about injuries sustained from a fall, then why does he claim...
Nice fakeout there.
"Ironic, right?" has female blips.
Umineko or that other japanese thing that nobody cares about but you?
I'M RIGHT! YES!
...Except for the gunshot, of course.
It says he didn't live longer than 3 minutes. That's enough time to sustain injuries from a fall.
Wait, that was fake? FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-
Don't cross the judge, idiots.
Antique? Pshaw!
I guess this is worth a try.
AAAAND nope.
Wait, we're going to get a new piece of evidence...
Yes! The first statement IS relevant!
So we have a new list of suspects.
I guess that's the end of the first testimony. *phew*
Looks like we're about to lose...
crapcrapcraaaaaaaaap
OBJECTAFEST
This judge is awesome. But he's still incompetent.
vistiorslistvisitorslistvisitorslist
Of course I've found a flaw!
Yes, let's get on to the presenting!
Whoops! TAbbed out.
ogodogodogod.
Right. If this is what I think it is, then I am great at logic once again!
Here goes nothing.
...CANOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON
Er, plot hole, much?
See, there are tons of other visitors. Who's to say one of them killed Groud and placed the blame on Yalt?
Darn it DWaM, your plot holes astound me!
Darn it DWaM, your needless puns astound me!
Oh. Duh.
ANOTHER GODDAMN PLOT HOLE?!?!??!?!
saving.
argh you
Third time's the charm, right? Office window it is.
...Fourth time...?
...Er, you're really making me grasp for straws!
Evo has slow internet, too!
I'm taking a break from this...
And we're back with a loaded draft and a loaded game. Without sound.
It figures you'd hide it deep in the source code.
The hell? The trial's not loading (I got it wrong again)...
Okay, I'm gonna need help. Gav out for now...

(Just gonna clear this little bit up...)
Spoiler : :
All of the visitors were found, questioned and no connection with Groud was established/or no relevance with the crime was found because they had an alibi during the time of the crime. Not to mention that a gunshot was heard and Yalt was shortly found at the scene? Not to mention if one WERE to point that out, how exactly would you go about proving they had anything to do with the crime...?

EDIT: NOT TO MENTION, the point of what you're trying to present is that Yalt isn't the killer, not that someone else is. Even if you did point this out, again, considering all of the evidence, everything still points to Yalt being the killer, especially considering you don't have the evidence to prove what you're suggesting.
As for what you need to do next...
Spoiler : :
It's a trap. ;)
