Burden of Proof version 1.0.7 has just been uploaded. This is a patch to solve a critical issue that would occur in Chapter 2 when loading a save that was made while talking to Chloe. Save files made at this point are now fully recoverable and no extra work is needed to continue playing as normal--version 1.0.7 will handle the error upon loading and correctly place characters as they should be.
However, if you made a save while the game was in that glitched state (Chloe missing from the scene) then that will have saved the characters in their incorrect positions. Reach out to me if you encounter this, the issue is fully recoverable through console commands.
Without further delay, here's the changelog:
Fixed script loading error when resuming a save file talking to Chloe in Chapter 2
Improved UI code to remove some warnings from the output_log file
Various script fixes and camera issues resolved
Fixed Conrad's dramatic pause in Chapter 5
That's all for today! Thank you everyone for playing and checking out Burden of Proof, I appreciate all the support and interest that's been shown in the game this past year. As always, you can check out my latest updates on Twitter. Stay safe!

Burden of Proof is a hybrid genre game that combines elements from third person exploration games with a Visual Novel presentation. Inspired by works such as Ace Attorney and Danganronpa, Burden of Proof offers a fresh take on the courtroom drama by allowing you to explore the crime scene in 3D. Understanding the layout and details of the crime scene will determine whether you can complete your case in the courtroom, and whether you will succeed in this new adventure!
Crimes have been running rampant in this city, and the cases are piling up. As the legendary attorney Conrad Cross, you'll be tasked with exploring the crime scenes and tracking down leads as you uncover the mystery behind a series of murders that are somehow connected. Ominous organizations, spies, and rebel groups are all after a seemingly harmless piece of computer hardware that holds a deadly secret. As the situation develops, you'll have to use your skills in logic and reasoning to outwit the criminals who want to escape your grasp of justice.
The burden is on you to present what you've learned in the courtroom, and to counter your opponent's statements with smart remarks. The Judge has acquired Counselors who have a say in the verdict, each with their own personalities. To succeed, you must not only convince the Judge, but these new Counselors as well! Cross-examinations are vital to drawing the truth out from witnesses, and your evidence is key to developing the court's understanding of the crimes you face. However, the culprit won't always go quietly. In moments of panic, you must shoot down faulty reasoning with contradictory evidence in order to bring the Counselors and the Judge to your side. You have the power to choose whether or not to object when a controversial statement is made in the courtroom, and your choice could either help or harm your case. Choose wisely, and demonstrate your understanding to the court in order to get the verdict in your favor!
