If you somehow got to the second third page of this thread without deciding to play this case... go and play it already, and enjoy it's really excellent, tightly written mystery that respects the canon it is basing itself on with wonderfully integrated custom assets and contradictions that give genuine "AHA!" moments from things previously overlooked. Oh also there's tons of flavour text and it's incredibly funny. I hope to one day see it as a featured case on this site : D

Re: [T][CE] Turnabout Retribution ☆
I gave this a shot, and while I'm not going to write a review, I am going to say this:

Thrower of bricks.
Co-host of the Into the Takumi-verse case compeition.
Stuff I've made in 2 weeks:
The Impossible Turnabout
Erinaceinae Griminance
Cases I have collabed on:
Don't Resort to a Turnabout (W.I.P)
Trucy's Magical Catastrophe
That time I got reincarnated as a fictional Defence Lawyer in An Ace Attorney fangame and had to defend myself against incredibly unfair odds.
Stuff I've made by myself that is good:
...maybe in the future.

Thank you for playing! Since this review dives into more specific things regarding the case in depth, (and more importantly because I'm in the mood for it, I guess) I'll be responding to this one with a bit more detail. (Maybe I should just finish writing a Director's Commentary already but other stuff that warrants my attention keeps popping up...)

This has been sitting on my metaphorical desk too long. I'm hoping to get this QA done by December 27th, but worst comes to worst, it'll be before the year's end.

Alrighty, thanks for letting me know~ Fortunately, I wasn't feeling too impatient for the QA since I've had my hands full with stuff as well, but it's good to know regardless.

Legitimately one of the best fancases I've ever played. I could gush for hours on end on how pretty much everything about this case goes hard, even down to the music choices. Solid 10/10.

Okay, I've at least finished the case now. I expect a very long review, so writing this will take me a while.

Coolio, can't wait~
Also, in other news: pinkcocoapowder was kind enough to spontaneously make me a fanart promo image, so I've added that to the OP as another promo image. Go check it out, it's very cool~

QA Review: Turnabout Retribution
Yeah, that about sums it up.
As far as I'm aware, this is Fury's first case. If not first case, first foray back into casewriting in a very long time. So I really didn't know what to expect going into this one. To be fair, neither did Kristoph.Yeah, that about sums it up.
_____________________________________________________
I need to split Check #1 in pieces, but otherwise, this format is standard.✮ – The Sparkling Feature Star is given for an aspect that makes your trial stand out even among the featured trials. Getting a Sparkling Feature Star means your trial is pretty much guaranteed to be featured after implementing the changes from check 2, unless it gets a Hollow Star.
+ – The Great Plus means that this aspect makes your good trial great. You don't need a Great Plus in every category, but you should have at least one Great Plus or Sparkling Feature Star for the trial to be featured.
✓✓ – The Double Check Mark means that this aspect is good enough for a featured trial. Almost everything in this area works solidly, but it lacks a "wow" factor. An otherwise great aspect that requires some non-trivial tweaking falls in here.
✓ – The Single Check Mark means that this aspect can be good enough for a featured trial, but requires not major, but non-trivial modifications to make it truly solid. You must not have any Single Check Marks in order to pass Check 2.
✰ – The Hollow Star marks a problem that can't be fixed without a major rewrite. A trial must not have any Hollow Stars in order to pass Check 1. If you get one, don't be discouraged! Remember that a Hollow Star is only a star that hasn't been filled yet. It's something you can work on when improving this trial or writing your next one, and once you've worked on it, go for another QA review!
Unlike the other marks, the Hollow Star and Single Check Mark only talk about how large of a rewrite is needed to be featured-trial good, not how good that part of the trial is.
