Status and Road Map

Developer is currently in search of gameplay conception, so feature requests are gratefully acceptable.

Current roadmap:

  • [ ] Basic score system
  • [ ] Clues on the crimeplace
  • [ ] Blood traces on player (kind of 'crime cooldown')
  • [ ] Police should react on blood splats on player
  • [ ] FBI agents should locate clues and investigate them
  • [ ] Newspapers

Features

  • Random town generation
  • Simple inventory system
  • NPC with random name, race and stats generation
  • Simple body simulation with bloodloss, stun effect, body part damage and dismember function
  • Simple police AI and simple crimeplace investigation mechanic
  • Simple GUI system and mouse support
