Putz 569 mb

Um, yes? That would indeed be the file size of the Windows version (though we're looking to trim some stuff, it's still gonna be a large game).

I still don't think the size of the game is a justification, I've seen projects of +30 hours 250 mb, but I'm not correct in evaluating without playing, I'll download it, so I can actually see the quality and why of the size of the game.

(+1)
Your game is very heavy, having a true size of 690 mb, your audios are very heavy, your image folder is overcrowded with 244 mb, if you filter out some unnecessary ones you can greatly reduce the size of your project. I didn’t play because a user token was requested, but by the screenshoots it’s a common game made with RTP, not that I don’t like RTP I like alias, but if you have knowledge of photoshop it’s worth making some graphical changes, if you just change the color of the grass, your game will change.  From what I saw your project should be 150 mb, I suggest that you make a Backup pass some image files in TYNI PNG, you will gain a lot of space, without losing resources.  It is possible to do this with audios too, but the tip is to have few BGMs or enough.

Some of it also comes from our video files for intros and credits it would seem. We're likely to remove all the default MV music since we aren't using any of it, plus we'll look into TYNI PNG as you suggested. We are looking into it. As for the user token, that can be skipped. Though next update it's being relegated, since it's only for gamejolt trophy integration, to a main menu option rather than on boot.

Also, as another quick note, we are looking into altering more of the tileset from the basic stuff (and have long done some for a scant few tiles, specifically stone around M'Rasu being more white than grey). If we had the time, faster workflow and knowledge, we'd have long made it ourselves. And as it is, custom art is expensive enough, we don't have the money for a full tileset custom made for each zone. But some more colour adjustments isn't a bad suggestion, one which we are having a gander. Obviously, the game is FAR from done, so a lot is subject to change, and already has since 0.1.1.
