A whole lot! It's insane how much of a time sink the post-processing of this game is. I think I'm going to include some more of the curved pieces I use for trees in my next Bricklink order, because not having to spend an additional five or ten minutes positioning the trees just right to cover all the background would be very helpful.

Thanks for playing, everybody! I have to go sleep for a while, but I will be back tomorrow and we can keep going!

Hard to see, but the soldier's torso is rotated 90 degrees from his legs. I think I'm going to use that method more often to show a twisting waist.

This game is ridiculously time-consuming in post-production because the artificial day-for-night method I've got going on is by no means foolproof and takes a lot of tweaking. I have the easiest time when a soldier is on-screen because the red of his uniform gives my Photoshop tools some grip. Otherwise, I have to use one of three methods of getting the muddied original file to look good enough for me to be satisfied with it, and all three are multiple steps and take a lot of eyeballing and adjusting.

The fog effect only takes a couple seconds.
