Hey, officers! For the last several weeks weve been transferring the project to GameMaker Studio 2. Finishing this part of the development process allowed us to proceed to implementing some of the features we had planned for quite a while. As you can see on the gif, Police Stories is now both working on Mac and has a controller support! For now the Right Stick is responsible for aiming, which isnt very convenient. Were going to upgrade it with a more classic twin-stick approach, plus a special button combination to command your partner. Luckily, the menu is optimized for the controller since the very beginning, so most of the work is already done. Adding a controller support required us to upgrade the whole input system. It turned out to be a good thing, as now were able to implement changing control keys more easily. After finishing this part of the development, were moving to widely anticipated Couch Co-op. Aside from the tech side, it also includes update of the HUD.

Here is a small list of features were doing next:

• Suspects AI improvement Escaping from the room or the level
• Destructible walls (not every wall will be destructible)
• Difficulty Settings for each mission
• Tutorial tooltips
• Enhanced smoke/gas grenade mechanics
