  I can't think of a reason why C2 couldn't be used for hugely successful games like SpaceChem or Braid, but the truth of our current state of affairs is that virtually all of even C2's best games would fall into the above-average hobbyist range

  RandomExile: Braid took Jonathan Blow 3 years to make on his own, as a full time job.

  C2 is 2 years old, and some of the features (like Functions) are less than 6 months old.

  Do the maths from there.

  On a personal note, I found myself realizing I have much troubles working on the very same project for long extended period of times.

  After a month or two, I have troubles keeping motivated in the project and find myself toying with new prototypes/ideas.

  For games in that scope, C2 is just excellent.

  I think it's something Tom might should have a look at since he's working/redesigning the arcade.

  The event simply use the name of the file without any kind of extension since C2's engine does the job of picking the correct extension on runtime without you having to bother about it.

  You should be checking for errors in browser to have a hint about what may go wrong.

  Depending on the messages you get, the issue might come from the arcade, or from your project. Without those messages/informations, no way to tell.

  —: It looks like you're creating an endless loop in the last event.

  Indeed, recent updates in C2 made it so the event call now allows for this "type of issue".

  You're generating a hash, and it triggers the event that checks when hashes are generated. In loop.

  To fix the issue, I just put the action "Set CB_Hash_Cycle to 1" first before generating the second hash.

  Here is the capx I've reproduced.

  I can't explain for sure what changed, this would be a question for Ashley, but apparently, I don't think it's related to the plugin (unless I handled badly the triggering part).

  Well this tutorial is now gone and ashesh has one more PM in his inbox.

  The "taunt" in caps lock was really too much.

  For the rep it's up to —

  AbsoluteX and AbsoluteY are expressions of the Mouse plugin.

  If you don't have the mouse plugin in your project add it first and be sure to add it in your "equation".

  Closing as not a bug.

  Daniel Cook from Lost Garden (working at SpryFox atm) uses Post it note design docs.

  Don't do a massive GDC, but rather have a small idea that fits on a post it note to answer a precise question about your design and whatever should be done/worked on in your game at the time.
