- LONG OVERDUE; THE BIG UPDATE YOU DESERVE - 19 May 2022
6.3 GB - RECOMPRESSED JUST FOR YOU OKAY BUT WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? Compression is a big part of ever day computing. Images take up large amounts of memory and disk space, so we use compression techniques to store them when they're not being viewed. For example ".png" and ".jpg" are ways to store much larger information, just packed up neatly. Particularly 2D games like Broken Sword 5, will contain tons of large graphical data and audio files that would take up obscene amounts of space without compression. To us it's important to keep an eye on the latest techniques and pass on those benefits to all of you! 🤫 FUN FACTS SIDEBAR: Back when we finalised the frame of Broken Sword 5 the method of compression we used for such big files was z-lib, which is an industry standard super stable and quick default compression technique. But then (dramatic music) a contender, a lone ranger, a rogue, ope…
