We at Paper Cat Games wish Tanuki-sama Studios an excellent launch.

Paper Cat Games also has a special announcement coming next Wednesday! We can't share the details yet, but we do have a small teaser to share below. We hope you are excited for what's next for Paper Cat Games.

Hello everyone.

A new “Check” system has been added to the game. When you get certain evidence, it is now possible to “check” for more information. Currently, it is only used for one piece of evidence. Spoiler for case 5: Lowell’s photo at the end of case 5 part 3 will now show the full photo.

While this is the only place in Paper Perjury currently using the “Check” feature, we are taking any feedback for other evidence that could use a “Check” feature. We also plan to use this in the future, but we can’t say how yet.

Case 3 and 4 spoiler

At the end of case 3 and near the start of part 2 of case 4, there is a section in each where the evidence was marked incorrectly. When Justina has to prove how Annie removed the rope and prove who B.I.G H.E.N is. This has been fixed.

The trashcan evidence mini-art no longer looks different when hovered.

Case 5 patch note spoiler

Previously, in case 5 part 1, when Detective Hunt’s statement is presented to Joy’s fifth statement before it gets updated, a single line of dialogue from Detective Hunt would appear before going back to Joy’s statement. This has been fixed.

Both Joy’s statement and Lowell’s statement are now properly marked when you present the correct evidence before it gets updated.

Joy’s updated statement in part 3 can no longer be interactive with. Part 3 already has a lot of characters to interact with and since Joy’ statement didn’t do anything, it was cut to make the section of case 5 have better pacing.

If there are any questions or issues that come up from this patch, please let the team know.

Thank you to everyone who played Paper Perjury over the last four months.

Hello everyone.

This patch has two changes.

The first was to fix a typo that first showed up in the previous patch.

Here is an issue that showed up in case 5 part 1

joy "Most of the office is working from home, and Mr.{#X} Eubank has put the cleaning crew on paid vacation after Anton Chambers' until further notice."

The second was to add an extra optional room to explore.

In case 5 part 3, you can visit the viewing room and speak with Lowell for a bit. You can also get some extra banter with Justina and Sophie. The purpose to this is give a bit more context to Lowell before the final section of the game. No evidence can be gained here, so don't worry if you don't feel like talking to Lowell.

Thank you.

There are 12 different trading cards, 5 Profile Backgrounds, and 6 Emoticons for fans of Paper Perjury to collect! Trading Cards should be added depending on how long you have played Paper Perjury for.

If there are any issues, please let the team know. Thank you for supporting Paper Perjury!

Hello everyone.

This morning, in the steam discussions, there was a post in the "Bug and Typo Thread" with a large list of typos and similar script issues. I decided to go and address most of those issues in this patch. It's a pretty long list of very minor issues for cases 3-5. Click here if you want to read the list.

Like all updates, dialogue to evidence will be set in stone once it has been collected. If any of the evidence that has been collected has an update in this patch, it won't be changed on that save file. You would need to start a play though of that case for the update. If there are any issues as a result of this patch, please let anyone on the team know.

If you haven't finished the full game, please come back once you finish case 5. As for the changes, I will try and document them here as best I can.

Justina when presenting Owen's car to Fie in her second statement in case 5 part 1
"(While it's possible she could have gotten there in Owen's car, this evidence doesn't directly counter her statement. I'll try something else and save this evidence for later.)"
"(While it's possible she could have gotten there in Owen's car, she isn't able to drive it herself. It would better prove who drove it, then save this evidence for later.)"
This is a complete rewrite to make it more clear why it doesn't work in this section.
