Devlog 37: Shadows of Suspects
The last time I checked in with a devlog, I'd begun writing Chapter 12. Here's what I've done since then.

- Finished 2 sprites
- Created a rough version of one background
- Writing on Chapter 12 is 40% complete
- Created a mock-up for an improved version of the UI
Chapter 12 is a lot like Chapter 7 a big investigation which also took me a long time to write last time. But just like File 02, the other chapters don't have as many things to complete.
I'd had a hard time finding a good map showing the Iqaluit region, so I just had drawn the region of Nunavut there. But recently I found a better map, so I have now fixed the Iqaluit file icon which is why it's been changed.
Until next time!
LockedOn.
