Saved Games:
• Tallowmere 2 uses a plugin called CloudOnce that utilises iCloud's key-value storage system, with the intent of allowing file syncing between iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch devices.
• Post-launch, it was discovered that iCloud's key-value system has a 1 MB storage limit per app.
• This is fine for one or two typical saved game files, but the 1 MB limit causes storage errors once file sizes exceed this limit, which does happen.
• There currently aren't any suitable plugins for the Unity game engine that allow access to iCloud's CloudKit or Documents systems, which do not have such storage limits.
• As such, for the interim, iCloud key-value support will be phased out for saved games. Existing saved games in the key-value system will be downloaded and stored locally if possible. Going forward, new saved games will be stored locally until further notice.
