Paper Perjury News

[p]For anyone interested in the music of Paper Perjury, here is a video talking about some of the fun facts about the soundtrack.[/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

[p]In this patch, we are updating the names of all fives cases in Paper Perjury. [/p][p][/p][p]The changes are...[/p][p]Case 1: "On the Hunt" to "Beginnings & Perjury"[/p][p]Case 2: "Feline-y Assault" to "Conspiracy & Perjury"[/p][p]Case 3: "Swiftly Solved" to "Magic & Perjury"[/p][p]Case 4: "Glass Bullet" to "Deceit & Perjury"[/p][p]Case 5: "Forging a new Path" to "Eubanks & Perjury"[/p][p][/p][p]All achievements will keep the names, but the official titles will be updated in game. As for why, there are a few reasons. [/p]

1. [p]The original names we decided only a few days before launch. All were intended to be puns, but otherwise were basically placeholders that became official. With Case 6 coming out soon, we wanted to think of a proper name system for all our cases going forward.[/p]
2. [p]We decided on "X & Perjury" because we feel Perjury, which we define as "the act of lying during legal proceedings", is a core part of the game and all future Paper Perjury content. As much as I personally love puns, not everything needs to be a pun. So that is why achievements will keep their names.[/p]
3. [p]Case 6's teaser trailer announced the case's title to be "A Re-volting Fire", but we will be changing it to Case 6: "Regrets & Perjury" because we feel the theme fits the story this case intends to tell. While we still don't have a release date yet, Case 6 is coming along smoothly, and we hope to announce the release date soon.[/p]

[p]Aside from the name changes, there are also a few updates as well.[/p]

• [p]When two characters appear on-screen, they will now appear at the same time rather than one after another. [/p]
• [p]Fixed a bug where some of the testimonies given in the later half of the game had two arrows appear at the same time. [/p]
• [p]Fixed a bug in Case 3 involving the Alleyway sooner than intended.[/p]

[p][/p][p][/p][p]Originally released on September 18th this year, Burden of Truth has joined the Debate and Deduction bundle! With gameplay similar to the previous three games in this bundle, fans of Paper Perjury should also enjoy this courtroom mystery game. As before, buying this bundle will save 10% in addition to the savings coming from the now live Steam Autumn Sale 2025.[/p][p][/p][p]As for Paper Perjury Case 6, our team is still working on it every day. It's been slower than we would like, but only because fleshing out the mystery requires a lot of work. It's going to be our largest (if only by word count alone) mystery in Paper Perjury to date, so it requires a lot of playtesting just to make sure everything comes together. [/p][p][/p][p]While our current plan is to release Case 6 by the end of this year (I personally am aiming for December 9th, the one-year anniversary of Paper Perjury), we might have to push it back to January. The extra month will give us more time to polish the script and make sure it doesn't release in the middle of the Steam Winter Sale. If this does happen, we apologize for the delay.  [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]We want to take our time to make sure the case is as good as possible. We have released a few videos on the Paper Cat Games YouTube channel over the last few months to showcase some of the upcoming characters. We hope this shows how ambitious we got with this case. [/p][p][/p][p]Thank you for your patience, and we hope you all enjoy the Steam Autumn Sale![/p]
