[UPDATE] Chapter 2 development has begun! (Patreon)

Hello everyone! It's Mauri, Hope you've had a wonderful holiday season and start of 2026, and thank you for supporting our game! Gyrium and I have been resting up a bit after the WHODUNNIT CH1 grind, and have spent some time in game jams, hanging out, being sick, and mainly taking a good break.
I wanted to make a post to give you an update on WHODUNNIT, which is that we're officially starting work on WHODUNNIT CH2! There's a lot in store and we've planned out some pretty funky things, so we're very excited to share it with you.
Part of starting CH2 work is coming up with cool concepts for mechanics, for characters, and figuring out the story beats. We want it to feel like every episode has it's own flavors and arcs that can both integrate into the whole story, but also serve as a good experience on their own.
Here's some concept art of a character that will be introduced in Chapter Two! We might say some more about her in the future...
Also, some more funky characters who may or may not be featured in the game. We showed this one off first in our old build retrospective stream!
We're also doing a lot of work on ensuring that WHODUNNIT runs on Web! We released our Android build a while ago, but this one needs a bit more work to be good. First you had him in your PC, now in your phone, and soon you'll have Howie on your browser!
Lastly, we just wanted to say thank you so much for playing and rating the game! What the hell! We now have around 80+ patrons, and around 5000+ combined downloads between Steam and itch. You all rock so hard! We're super motivated to keep it going, so you'll definitely be hearing more frequently from us.
Alright! This is it for now. Rest up, enjoy your day, and tell us in the comments about what you'd like to hear from us here on Patreon! More old retrospectives? Some dialogue/narrative design thoughts? Ediction things? New game things? We'll figure it out, but we'd love to hear more about what YOU would like!
We worked on two game jams with friends while we took a break from WHODUNNIT - play them when they're out! One's about worms, bikes and bananas, the other one's about language puzzles, toxic old women yuri and a sickness.
Thanks all! See you around and take care!
