Archived Torches (and Greetings)

[Sunray]

Hello all! Being new to this forum, I thought I'd take my chance to say hi I don't often sign up for forums, but I think this game has so much awesome potential I really want to be involved from (kinda) the beginning Also, the community is part of what makes games truely exciting and I would love to be part of that!

I have been desperately thinking of some idea or contribution that hasn't been already said, and haven't come up with much, but one thing I did notice while playing is that the torches can be quite harsh. There doesn't seem to be enough 'bleed' or ambient lighting in my view. I have a screenshot (taken while at max graphics) that hopefully demonstrates my point. I apologise if this has been brought up before, but I couldn't find it while searching, so
Only other thing I noticed so far is the slightly jarring transition from day to night but I'm sure you're aware of that

I hope I will be some use at some point, but glhf to you lovely developers for now

Welcome
begla said something about SSAO in this post, which would include torches as well (at least I think so). For me it seems that would be a great starting point for you, though.

Thanks for the extra thoughts to catch something unique! Yeah I look forward to seeing that area develop further

Thank you both
If I could code I would try, but as it is I am slowly working my way through python atm so I won't be able to help there for a while Coding is good fun though ^^
