  Does this mean we may see a steam plugin at all?

  Anyone know what's going on with the Mac nodewebkit, any weird settings, or is it just incomplete? I've seen people say its glitch graphics, for me, my game has nearly all the sprites turned to black aside from the font but of course works perfectly on chrome (new Mac mini and older Mac book pro give same results). It's a pity its not closer to how chrome works.

  Is it possible to move the DLL/pak stuff to a sub folder? I think it would tidy it up and help gamers get to the game!

  Currently:

  Better (I presume the directxsetup thing is necessary for everyone to see?):

  Ashley isn't keen on 3D unfortunately, he'd want to finish up more features or expand the team if he is ever to do it in the future.

  Onion skinning would be handy, seeing the previous/next frames faintly.

  I used to import with .wavs, but now just import .oggs. Since that's all that's needed for nodewebkit and the proper browsers.

  Making inventories and UI can be tricky, but if you practice doing it you'll learn a lot and become awesome.

  I'm 11 months into my game, and C2 is fantastic to use, heaps more enjoyable and efficient to work with than CC and MMF2. The biggest problem for me is still wrappers/export functionality and fullscreen performance on some computers (I'm hoping Ashley will do that feature that can render smaller and scale up). The Mac node-webkit is hardly working for my game, so I'm basically Windows only at the moment.

  Don't do a design document, better more efficient alternatives to use are workflowy (for everything) and coggle (for brainstorming).

  Thanks for putting it in, there are some missing ones though? Just wondering if you're going to add the ones like: Up/down/left/right/spacebar etc? Or should i create lots of exceptions/code for it my self?

  Welcome to art! No matter how far the technology comes to aid in the creation of art/games it will always be a challenge/struggle.
