I  am an adventure game designer and I am looking for some help on a few things. I will post new job links in this post/blog for anyone who is interested in work. Please See below:

JOB 1:

Unity 5 - Simple Town - Need help with lighting
I am using the latest version of Unity 5 Free Edition. I have this asset here(I am assuming whoever makes the offer already has this asset):
https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/en/#!/content/19942

Basically I need my demo scene project that is included in the asset to look like how it does in the demo video. I don't care about the particles or the animations. I just would like the whole scene to have the lighting and shadows so that it looks exactly as it does in the demo video. Please let me know if you can do that, how much the job will cost and how long it will take. I can either have the demo scene, or a very detailed tutorial to achieve that effect on the demo scene file. Please see below for more of what I am talking about. Thank you!

You can follow the discussion of this asset and its features here(Page 3 and 5 have a small blurb about lighting):

You can see a demo of how I would like the lighting and shadows to work:

Fan-made Adventure Games become portable!

Its no secret that today we live in an age of mobile electronics. Gone are the days of big bulky cell phones and laptops. In are the days in which we behold credit card thin cell phones and super lightweight netbooks and tablets. No longer do we use a simple mouse or joystick or even a keyboard to maneuver through a video game as we once used to. Now a simple touch of the screen and our preferred actions come to life right before our eyes. Yes, today, mobile devices seem to be taking the world by storm. It offers a casual experience to many as well as added convenience and simple fun. From simple smartphones to portable game consoles to high end netbooks and tablets, it seems almost everyone, young and old, are getting into the action. One thing that all these devices have in common: Games. LOTS AND LOTS of GAMES!!!! Mind you, games are not the only thing that these devices have in common, but whether you are travelling on a train or airplane, sitting in a car as a passenger, waiting in a doctors office or just looking to pass the time, more often than not you are scrolling through your list of apps to find a game to pass the time.
