So... Week 1 for Desktop Detective was crazy...!

Hi everyone!

It's been about a week since release, and I can't thank you all enough for the crazy launch that Desktop Detective has had!

We started at about a maximum concurrent player count of 74, but somehow, instead of peaking there like most games... The game has grown way beyond that!

The Gamescom event also just started, so if you're attending and have access to Hall 4.1 B031/C040, make sure to visit us sometime this week!

Thank you all SO much for playing the game so far! If you've been enjoying it, a review would be super helpful and is the best thing you could do to support the game.

Open this on Sifter

I'm off to the booth, but see you all soon :)
