Apologies about the delayed assets

Leave a comment

I just wanted to post a quick apology that this Tuesday’s game assets didn’t go out as planned. Rest assured that they are coming – but for one week only we will be delivering on a Wednesday instead. Consider it like ‘late mail’ because of all of the snow!

Then I thought – instead of doing each letter in Photoshop, why not write a program to do it for me!? Here is an example image produced by our, soon-to-be-released (possible not with the assets tomorrow, but soon) software for turning your boring flat fonts into something a bit more shiny, just by tweaking a few parameters…
