Can anyone please provide wisdom regarding why this no longer works? I need a solution ASAP.

@gstager Dunk is a VERY large tutorial because of all the animations and graphics and it tries to upload all of those to the device. My suggestion is to go through and delete any images/animations that you're not using from My Assets and give it another try. Keep in mind that the ending animation is also quite large, so that alone might make it not work on a handheld.
