I'm wondering about something but couldn't find an answer to it, so I'm turning to you awesome folk for help. I'm…

Hello all, I was wondering if someone could help me with a problem I've been having for awhile now that's a bit different from the usual game models.

The idea is to make it look like a small creature of some sort lives down there, and has self appointed himself as "King of the Pond".…
Thanks for the link, that is a very helpful document! I was wondering where the smaller studios where posting their apps.
