Love and Deepspace is a beefy game andtakes up a lot of spaceon your device. With so many image files, videos, and visually interactive content, you’ll need tomake sure you have enough storageon your device to hold Love and Deepspace.
Themost commonreason that an update will fail to download is because yourdevice is out of space. The game won’t alert you that you don’t have enough space, so you’ll need toenter your device’s settingsand check the storage yourself.
Until youfree up some space, you won’t be able to complete the update downloads.
You can also check what content is downloaded to your phone by entering your profile andselecting the downward facing arrowicon. From here, you can manageall downloaded resourcesand check exactly how much space each resource takes up on your device.

Graphics issuesare another one of the most common problems you may encounter in Love and Deepspace. The game has somestunning visualswhich not all devices will be able to process.Here’s what you can doif you’re having visual issues.
General Graphics Issues
If you find that your graphics aregrainy, jerky, or just a bit off, you may need to consider tweaking yourgraphics settings.
Believe it or not, incompatible graphics settings can even cause spooky errors likefloating character headsor missing limbs! This is rare, but does occur.
To change your graphics settings, you can eitherselect the person iconon the home screen or enter yourplayer Profile, select settings, and enter theQuality tab.
The Quality tab will offer themost customizable graphicsexperience, but the home screen method will offer avisual sampleof each graphics mode.

If you’re still having issues after using the recommended graphics mode,try going down a graphics setting.
How To Fix Outfit Clipping
Outfits will probably clip at least a little bit in theSnapshot and Photoboothmodes no matter what, but the most common reason is anincompatibilitybetween model pose and outfit or accessory style.
Some outfits and accessories areincompatible with certain posesbecause theangleof the character models,projectionof the outfits and accessories, orpositionof both clip into one another.
In some modes, like Snapshot,incompatible items will be removedbefore the final photo is taken. For example, thereindeer antlerswon’t work with duo poses where thecharacter’s heads leanagainst each other. To avoid weird clipping, the game will automatically remove the antlers from one of the characters.
In other modes, like theGlint Photoboothmode, certain outfits and accessories will belocked outof certain poses. To get around this, you cantoggle ‘ignore incompatibility.‘Doing so will give you access to all accessories and outfits again, but youmay encounter clippingor weird outfit positioning.
Sometimes, clipping is unavoidable, like inSylus’s Rebuttal Invalidduo pose. In this pose, if Sylus is wearing long sleeves, the protagonist’shand will always clipinto his sleeve. There’s no way to fix this just yet.
