Devlog 40: Characters Completed!
All the sprites for File 03 have been completed!

Here's what I've done since the last devlog, where I finished writing File 03!
- Worked on the largest background
- Finished the character sprites for File 03
- Worked on 4th Anniversary content
Getting the character sprites done is huge! Now I can finish blocking out all the scenes. I've made some progress on the big background, making lots of props and things. However, it's not yet "feature complete" (still missing the vital pieces of evidence which need to be there to solve the mystery). With the characters designed, I can create the suspect/victim dummies and finish the new casefile.
I also worked on features for Methods' 4th Anniversary, which is coming in April, so look forward to that!
Until next time!
LockedOn.
