Version 2.0 Available Now!

Steam post image

Okay, so if you are wondering why this big update exists, please read our previous post.

TLDR: I've wanted to bring the Steam version of Detective Di: The Silk Rose Murders up-to-date for a while now, but given the size of our team (mostly me!), those changes have taken longer than expected.

But, that changes today! Version 2.0 is live and downloadable now. With it, you'll see improvements in many areas. And while these changes do not impact the story or the core gameplay, I do think they enhance the overall experience for different devices and screens (hello Steam Deck!). In other words: this is the latest and greatest!

Here's a list of the major changes and improvements:

• new UI/UX for the "Inventory Bar"

• new drag-and-drop functionality when using/combining inventory items

• new "Detective Vision" button which reveals on-screen hotspots

• new auto-save system; triggered at key points in the game

• new location markers on "Map" screen

• improved UI for readability on smaller screens

• hard drive space requirement reduced by ~50%

• fixed some minor bugs

• fixed a couple of typos

• and many more small tweaks
