Devlog 17: Trailer Released
A Canadian trailer has arrived!
[previewyoutube=7rPey4Wkhpc;full][/previewyoutube]

I spent the past week putting this trailer together, as well as collecting feedback about the beta version from various people who have played it and making adjustments. I think I can now safely say that any major issues with File 01 have been solved, and the "beta test" phase is complete enough for me to move on to getting the demo together.
My new plan is to release the demo by the end of the month so that more people can experience the story. The demo contains the entirety of File 01, but unlike the Methods demo, will not contain any extras. Once the first two files have been translated, I'll launch it in early access at $5. Then, as I've said before, for each subsequent file I'll increase the price by $2.50 until all six files have been released.
These new files are not additional DLC by the way. Anybody who purchases The Canada Files for $5 when it's first released will be able to play all six files without having to pay any additional cost, same goes for anybody who purchased it at $7.50, or $10, etc. This is very similar to my original rollout for Methods.
If you didn't have access to the beta, well, it won't be that long to wait until you can play it! ;)
Until next time!
LockedOn.
