Devlog 16: Going Into Beta
Finally, Canada is here... in beta!

This past week I worked harder than I've worked in a very long time to finish File 01, and I'm very pleased to announce that The Canada Files beta has now been launched for Patrons, Afdian Sponsors, and LockedOn Discord members.
There's still a lot of work to do before I can release the early access version. I need to make a trailer, extras, the elaborate Hangouts feature, and of course, the chapters need to be translated into Chinese first. I don't know when all of that will be ready, but my plan is to keep developing the game as it is being translated, so the next file will be able to come out sooner.
In the meantime, enjoy the beta and getting a first look at the game!
Until next time!
LockedOn.

In the last few stages of the Canadian detective competition, Detective Larika Downs is determined to find out who could be running such a questionable contest. Joining her are Detectives Tads, Anadyne, Struess, and Viu. By working together, will they find out the truth?
Methods: The Canada Files is a prequel visual novel to Methods: The Detective Competition. It features a brand new story, a new cast of eccentric characters, and a new style of mystery-solving gameplay designed to present more of a challenge.
