View Full Version : Standards for graphics?

One thing that makes Bakery Story more enjoyable than RS is the graphics. The TL group who works on the bakery graphics has an eye for design, and the desserts in BS look amazing. On the other hand, I'm going to assume that there's a completely different group of people working on the graphics for RS.
Seriously, the strawberry shortcake would look more edible if my seven year old had designed it and the chicken tenders look like bandaids on a plate.

But I'm noticing that the lack of artistic design is leaking over from RS toBS. The rhubarb pie and the new lemon muffins look like they belong in RS. And too be honest, they don't look right on my counters next to the the pies and cakes that actually look edible.

TL, are you rushing just to give us something new, or did you fire the only talent you had in your graphics department? If I wanted mush on a plate, I would delete BS and limit myself to RS.

Those lemon muffins are huuuuuuuuuuuuuge! One of those muffins and a cup of the white hot cocoa could feed a village!

I thought they were going for rustic this time around lol the only thing that really "concerns" me is the cartoon to food size ratio. The food is rather large and yes the white hot cocoa mug looks more like their toilet than something to be sipped from.

Lol
The other day I had the game zoomed in, and got taken aback for a second by the size of the chocolate soy shake and yogurt parfait

The lemon muffins are just the cupcakes from RS. Someone just changed the color and the name. Most of the food inBS is amazing...take the kiwi cheesecake!!! Yum!!! But whoever is designing the new food for BS needs a refresher in graphic design. I hope the standards for BS food doesn't lower itself to that of RS.

And yes, the first time I noticed the soy shake I was shocked. Its ten times larger once its in front of a customer :)

Okay, I have a question off topic.. while in BS you have the option of taking a picture(upper right corner). How do you retrieve those pictures? Where are they kept?

If you select "save to images", you'll find them in your well images app :)

So if I don't have this app, I need to download it? I play on a kindle, if that makes a difference.

Oh I'm on iOS, so that does make a difference.

There isn't supposed to be a "well" there.

That soy shake needs to be resized. It's ridiculous how large it is!

It's in whatever default photo album app came pre-installed on your device. I don't know what sparks means by "well images app", maybe that's an Android thing. In iDevices its just called "Photos" creatively enough.
