Plans Before the New Year

I would really, REALLY like to release an updated demo before the new year. This should be entirely possible based one where I currently am with the development. 

I still have a bunch more renders to do because I keep adding more. The scene where the PC tops Alan used to only have about 7 renders but now I'm up to 21 

How important are the following things for the Demo?

1. Download size
   - How important to you is it that the the game file be a reasonable download size? Right now, EACH full size (1440p) PNG is 4-7MBs. This makes for a VERY big download. Likely over 2GBs. I can process all the images and convert to JPG but that requires a bunch of code changes too, and then another thorough round of QA which adds a bunch of time.
   -I'm considering releasing the game first without optimized images and then releasing an update again AFTER optimizing them.
   
   - Additionally. Let me know if you actually benefit from 1440p images. If enough people are playing on a 1080p screen it might make sense for me to release a 1920x1080 version of the game. This will take some time, but might be worthwhile if enough people are interested. Also, if this is the case, it's better to start early than later.
2. Gallery
   - I've built the basic gallery but what I have found is that it's still pretty buggy. I do want to fix it, but I also don't want it to hold up development. What do you think? How important is a gallery for the next demo release?
