  • Thanks for issue on <br /> I'm aware of that and will amend it soon.

    I'm not sure about the images not being set right, can you show examples and screenshots?

  • This is planned yes!

  • Hi!

    Try again, and if it doesn't work could you please send me the capx so I can export it and upload it to see what is wrong? If it doesn't work when you try again email it to tomgdl@scirra.com

  • We would need number of attendees, location, as well as a brief overview of what he could offer us in ways of promotion (for example a tweet, a mention at the event, nothing major!).

    We can't provide financial aid, but what we have been doing is giving free licenses to the event that they can use as prizes.

    If he's interested he's free to drop me an email!

  • Yes, we're sponsoring some events on an individual basis and are happy to have people email us. Short notice is fine!

  • Welcome to the site everyone!

  • Kenney looks like we'd like to use them then!

    At the bottom of our team page we have links to sites that let us use their work:

    http://www.scirra.com/people

    If we listed you there with a link to your website are we good to go with these?

  • This is basically an unsolvable problem. You can't make it impossible for someone to change the parameters sent, but you can make it more difficult.

    Perhaps the easiest way to stop people from modifying the query is to have a secret code built into the game, say for example "34fE_ef" and encrypt the sent data with that key. The server can then decrypt the data using the same key.

    This isn't foolproof of course, someone would be able to search the source and find the key. So you could make the key harder to find. Doing something like this should stop most casual hack attempts.

    Another way is to do sensibility checks, the difficulty/effectiveness of these checks is very dependant on the type of game you have. A sensibility check basically says "the submitted score/position/whatever of this player is impossible to obtain so I will ignore this".

    Just some ideas anyway!

  • Great game well done, looking forward to seeing how this progresses. Good job on the registration as well, works nicely.
