CASES

With this update, we are introducing two new cases to the game, bringing the total to six. This amounts to more than three hours of content for players to explore and solve! We eagerly await your feedback on these cases. If you have any thoughts, please let us know!

  • Added "The Manuscript" case

  • Added "Walter" case

  • Added "NEW" badge to new cases that have been added in the latest update.

GUI

We've also made some changes to the game's UI. This was done to enhance the overall user experience and ensure that the menus better fit the game's style.

  • Reworked the settings menu to have separate pages for each subject (Audio, Gameplay, Experimental).

  • Added Dynamic Cursor coloring. When the cursor hovers over something white it will turn black and vise versa.

  • Updated the visuals of the GPU Warning. All other warnings and pop-ups will also use this same style.

OTHER FIXES

  • Fixed a bug where the calendar didn't work when exiting the play screen and clicking back into it.

  • Removed abbreviations like Dr. and Mr. from suspect prompts and replaced them with their full word.

We hope you'll enjoy these new features and the addition of new cases. If you have any feedback, please feel free to email us at support@savannadevelopments.com or create a topic on the discussion page.
