In the last few stages of the Canadian detective competition, Detective Larika Downs is determined to find out who could be running such a questionable contest. Joining her are Detectives Tads, Anadyne, Struess, and Viu. By working together, will they find out the truth?
Methods: The Canada Files is a prequel visual novel to Methods: The Detective Competition. It features a brand new story, a new cast of eccentric characters, and a new style of mystery-solving gameplay designed to present more of a challenge. Solve puzzles and present evidence to refute faulty theories. Choose which of your teammate's methods to use to tackle the problem at hand.
Playing Methods: The Detective Competition first is highly recommended, but not required to understand the story.
- Solve crimes with five unique methods
- Refute faulty theories with evidence
- Chinese translation
- Original soundtrack
- Interviews, bios, gallery, music room, and other extra content
File 03 is still being written!
The last time I checked in with a devlog, I was 40% done with writing Chapter 12. Here's what I've done since then.
- Finished Chapter 12
- Finished Chapter 13
I've started to think of my writing process like ice climbing. I vaguely know that my goal is to reach the top, and some key landmarks along the way, but generally I am choosing where to stick my axe and place my feet as I go. It can feel unsafe, and slow, and sometimes painful, but as long as I have confidence and persist with it, I can make it. Does that metaphor make sense?
Thankfully, despite how long it's taking to write, this File is a lot easier to write than File 02. My hope is I can push through and finish the next two chapters by the end of this month, and then it'll be on to the fun part.
Until next time!
LockedOn.
