Stalker / Development Cancellation

I have thought about this long and hard, and I have decided that work on Stalker will officially be cancelled due to a loss of love for the project and other contributing factors.

I opened up the unity project for Stalker today, just as I was bored and had nothing else to do. I updated the project to the latest unity version which turned out to be the wrong choice. When the project loaded, there were many missing assets such as animations, scripts and more which had just seemingly disappeared. The lighting in the scene and game view was completely broken, and even resetting post processing and creating a new rendering pipeline didn't fix the issue. I realised how much a mess the project was, and if I wanted to develop a new update, I would literally have to rebuild the entire game from scratch. At that point, I might as well just make a new game if I were to do that. This means sadly no more updates for stalker, but you may see some similarities with a new game I'm starting to create. I might recycle some old stalker assets and script that still work as well.

Hope anyone who has played the game understands this decision. It was a tough one to make since stalker was one of my favourite games to develop.
