Police Stories 2: Devlog #2 — Break In. Get In. Get Out Alive.

Greetings, Officers!

"It’s devlog time!"

This is our second devlog , and today we’re talking about something no cop can survive without — the tools of the trade .

A Precinct Where Hell Is Just Another Morning

In the story, you’re given command of a police department in the toughest part of the city . Budget? Barely exists. Support from above? Forget it. Calling in SWAT? That’s a distant luxury — not a viable option.

Remember — you’re on your own.

But in return, the governor turns a blind eye to… certain methods. Sometimes, the law has to bend — just enough to keep it from breaking.

What’s in the bag?

Your people rely on themselves — and their creativity. Especially when it comes to what they can carry in and out .

Sometimes it’s forged. Sometimes it’s “found on site.”

We’ll reveal all the gear gradually, as it becomes ready.Let’s start with wave one :

Borescope

Lets you peek under doors or through cracks to see who’s already waiting for you .

Possibly with a shotgun.

A bad cop looks through the keyhole.

A good one turns on the borescope first.

Halligan tool

Borrowed from the firefighters’ toolkit, this thing tears through window bars and doors with ease.

Loud as an explosion — but perfect for creating entry points.

Hacking PDA

Hook into surveillance cameras to see who’s sitting where .

Disable the alarm to sneak in quietly .

Hack a computer — and decide:

Save the dirt?

Or erase the evidence for good?

Lockpicks

Silent. Fast. But not always easy. Sometimes a door is the last line of defense —

or a trap.

Explosives

What? Explosives? No, we never had any.

We heard the suspects were messing around with a gas tank. Or maybe some fireworks.

Who are we to judge ?

Doors. Smarter than us now.

Back in the first game, doors were… let’s say, very principled : either fully open — or not at all.

Now? They’re smarter and more flexible:

By default, doors open at wider angles Nearby furniture and objects affect door behavior Barricades, sir. Barricades.
