In the old image, the lighting was dark and well, off, so I had to add a light behind the camera that shouldn't exist in the scene to front-light the characters or they'd be too dimly lit to see. You can also see that the image is extremely grain...

As mentioned in the previous Status Update, the style of Next Steps is causing the game to be produced at more or less of a crawl. I really don't want to change the style or anything about the game just to be able to make it faster. Bu...

So, I was faced with a few issues as the game progresses: Primarily, the sheer size of it. Most systems, especially mobile devices, have a strict cap at 2GB, which the game in its infancy has already surpassed. To skirt this, the game ...
