  • Nice.

    Is that Dawnbringer palette?

  • Its based on a swipe gesture, if you touch, move your finger slowly, then release it wont work.

    My next template will be an angry boids movement.

  • I think it depends more on what you are doing in the function call.

    It's basically telling the cpu hey drop what you are doing, and do this, then do pick up where you left off.

    • Post link icon

    Trying to publish to mobile with the free version?

  • If someone was that interested in coding wouldn't they just move on to another engine?

    Its really hard to tell that to a customer that just paid for a license, because a selling point was "no code".

    Then telling them to just go buy a plug third party plug that can't be guaranteed is another lead balloon.

    Developers don't need poorly implemented leaderboards api's, or dodgey ad networks, they need access to collision polygons, image points, the inner workings of Canvas and Webgl.

  • And what's to keep someone from duplicating it, and sticking that up on a torrent?

  • Ok I think I have figured out a few things.

    The end game is to change all the tiles green.

    Updated link with new game play.

  • And how do they sell it?

  • Yes I'm talking about behaviors too. You can make any kind of behavior with events already, but the lack of reusability makes that less fruitful.

    There could be thousands of quality plugs with mechanics still unexplored.

    Sure the third party solutions are valuable, but api's come and go. Just like javascript developers.

    Edit:

    There could be thousands of quality plugs to sell on the store with mechanics still unexplored.

  • Sorry, I can't take your word for that. Unless you can show why that won't work.

    We are, after all, using events to manipulate javascript.

    Granted it would take some time for someone to dig in some third party code to figure out how to call the necessary expressions, but this isn't just about using libraries.

    We need reusable events.

    We need the ability to loose the chains of those third party libs.

  • Might be easier if you converted from binary.

  • > Cordova gives you the files to use with a third party wrapper.

    Doesn't that mean I need to have a website?

    A server perhaps, but that is for fairly advanced games.

    Most mobile games require only the third party wrapped package, and a license.

    ... and a lot of effort.
