Since we were all just commenting in someone's support thread, I figured I'm make a dedicated thread for anyone who wants to comment but doesn't neccessarily want to make a whole thread about it.

I love Lyndow- it reminds me of MYST but without those frustrating puzzles. Also, how on earth did you create the illusion of transparent windows? Fantastic!

Developer

Thank you so much! Glad you liked it :). Hah yeah I'm not too into puzzles either. The windows I owe to the benefits of having the whole world loaded (so there's actually something to see outside them) plus a cool refraction effect I used which I did not write :).

Did you use Unity? I tried, really I did, but now they even want payment for Collaborate. No thanks!

Developer

Yeah Unity. Unity is completely free! You can ship a commercial game with it and make money. The free version has all the features of the full version. I find their pricing model absurdly and impossibly cheap ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
