Vol. 39 Ready Or Not Development Update
Attention Officers,
Welcome to our 39th edition of our biweekly newsletter! This time around we will be showing new developments in our upcoming level, Data Center. Our level designers and artists have been working hard to add new creative aspects to make this level a force to be reckoned with. We are excited to share these updates with our supporters!

Encrypted Crime
The data storage facility featured in our new level, Data Center, is one of the last remaining centers still operating for Mindjot, a company that provides the online outsourcing of trade workers to workforces within Los Suenos. Mindjot was formerly known for being a platform where people can voice their opinions anonymously, avoiding punishment from the police and public.
Due to the lack of socio economic stability in Los Suenos, Mindjot quickly grew in necessity; at one point responsible for facilitating outsource work for almost half of the city's developmental projects. Another key factor to success was Mindjot’s utilization of crypto currency, which proved to be an advantage when the value of the dollar was wavering.
Above: You know, for a dirty company, their lobby is kept surprisingly clean.
Their success took a turn for the worst as larger companies began to lobby for industry change. A once strong respectable company became a mere joke overnight. Following the collapse, Mindjot turned once again into a hub for the anonymous illegal trade of various listings.
Above: The claustrophobic racks will make any gunfights long and dangerous. Liberal use of flashbangs is advised and will keep collateral to a minimum.
Above: Humming server racks and rumbling HVAC makes pinpointing suspects locations a bit difficult.

The Los Suenos Criminal Investigation Division has found evidence of prostituation, trafficking, and exploitation within Mindjots online servers and employees, specifically the security guards. The individual identity of these users has proven to be difficult to identity due to the extensive use of VPN’s. Following the conviction of a pedophile, investigators were able to link the distribution of explicit child pornography to Mindjot.
Above: Outside of the pristine front desk and server rooms, the cracks start to show.
Above: One has to wonder if the employees know what sort of data they’re managing.
Above: The rooms tend to blend together, though if you look closely, it’s easy to keep track of where you’ve been.
