A very very small update
Fixed some minor grammar and misspellings.
New game announced: Evil Lawyer Alexander Twist!
The game is in the mystery/supernatural genre, set in Paris in the 1960s. It will have a system similar to Ace Attorney in the sense that you choose an evidence to counter someone's argument, but, and that's a big but, instead of just finding holes in the witnesses' testimony, ANY sentence can be objected(with varying effectiveness, of course), so you will have to be on your tows the whole trial.
The synopsis of the story: Following a mysterious plague in the 1940s, 40% of the humans on earth acquired a superpower. To combat the chaos and the new "superpowered criminals" the law system had to go under heavy reform, now adopting the principle of "Guilty until proven innocent" alongside heavy bias of the judges toward the prosecution. As a result, almost every single case ends in a guilty verdict.
Only one person in Paris manages to combat the unfair law system with his intelligence, cheating, and four hamster companions: Alexander Twist. He was riding on the waves on success until he was found himself in a cell, framed for arson and murder. He must now turn this unlucky situation on its head and beat the opposing prosecutor, Elena Waddington, at her own game. But if he succeeds, a fate far worse than 25 years in jail awaits him...
Here is one of the hamsters, Cupcake the gluttonous and dim-witted hamster:
The game will be divided to 5 chapters and feature 2 protagonists(Alexander and Elena), with each chapter containing a challenging trial. Prepare to some crazy and creative crimes!
