This game has potential. However it is very short and lack story telling.

As a private detective, you're following the trails of one mysterious man.
Everything was pointing to an abandoned hotel and now you must find your way out of there, but not everything is what it seems...

Interesting game. I made a playthrough of it, in case you were interested: <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HfzU1ka8zM>
Here's the thing, it was kind of interesting, but there wasn't a whole lot to this game. There just wasn't enough for me to consider it interesting at the end. There was this build up that led me to expect a meaningful ending, but it was kind of anticlimactic.
In order for a game like this to be pulled off, if has to have a good plot or it has to be scary. There were a couple scares, but nothing that really made the experience great. You should add something to make it scarier, or else add a lot more to the plot.
I think this is your first game, so please don't be discouraged. It wasn't bad, it was just a bit of a letdown. I appreciate all the work you put into it, and look forward to anything else you might create :)
Didn't like this game at all, it's not interesting in any way, maybe you should try to give a little more background of the story so we are actually interested in completing your game, and if you are going to lock me in whenever i pick an item, please dont take that much time, we can read three words y less than 5 seconds, and all those times you have to stop for a little while and wait until the game lets you move again makes it a little boring, like Geminate said, you actually don't want to play it again to find the good ending even though it will take less than 5 minutes, and that's because it's boring.
And if you tell us the controls in the loading screen there is no need to flash them every time you can do somenthing. It gets annoying
Improve the gameplay mechanics. the story, and include some ambience sound or something like that and it will be a good game, it's not bad tho, so 5/10
I was not motivated to find the 'good' ending. Having to start over from the beginning is just too much to ask. If you would have the game re-start before where things went bad, then it would be a playable game. As it is now many have played, died and given up trying to win or complete the game.

I will add a option to reboot from the mid game soon.
Thanks for sharing your opinion and giving me your thoughts ^^
I found it fun ;)
