Release XXXVIII // Chapters 93, 94 & 95

Methods: The Detective Competition
A downloadable visual novel for Windows, macOS, and Linux


Release XXXVIII is here!


Release XXXVIII contains three chapters, one music track, one CG, and one behind-the-scenes article!

Making the game free for the time being has really opened it up to more people — I'm happy to report that I finally reached the 1000 downloads milestone!

My plan to write the chapters right away did NOT go well... in the end I ended up making the music track first. Writing really is the thing that makes me procrastinate the most. It's pretty annoying... hopefully the very exciting finale to come motivates me to write more!

Wow... only two weeks away from finishing the last chapter. It's such a weird feeling. When I began working on this, I could barely imagine reaching this point at all. I could barely imagine it even when working on the novel way back in the day!

And yet, this project, despite being larger in scope than anything I've done before, has taken half the time it took to make Broken Minds, and a quarter of the time it took to make The Evolving World Part 4.

This process has taught me a lot, but I'm saving that for a future behind-the-scenes article which will be included (hopefully) in Release XXXX.

Until next time!
