  This wont help with the loading times, but i read a trick somewhere someone suggested about waiting for the game to be "playable" before going to the layout.

  Basically you add a check that watches the frame rate of the game. (while its loading its going to be really low), but once everything is loaded and the game starts to run smoothly, THEN you hide the fake 100% loading screen.

  So its loading everything behind it, and only once its ready to play smoothly you show the player the game and begin.

  When using the "initialize tween" action is there any way to type a variable in th target fieldor system expression?

  right now the only work around i can figure out that works is to add 2 additional actions (set target x, set target y) after it.

  Here's another great resource for picking good color schemes for our games.

  http://www.palettable.io/

  simply "like" or "dislike" the colors it shows you and it dynamically finds you a nice palette of colors

  chrisbrobs - Does this only work on a sprite? or can it be applied to a whole layer edge?

  yeah i'd be suspicious of a few of these people claiming to have good rates. They dont have any forum posts, and only show up to say this? yeah, they are just trying to get you to use their services. dont trust them.

  you computer isnt powerful enough to both screen capture AND play the game at the same time? Old laptop?

  try on a more powerful computer

  also try capturing at a smaller resolution. play the game in a window

  plays smoothly on my machine (chrome)

  also, there's gotta be a smarter way to organize those events. seems like you are doing a ton of un necessary actions in there.

  Strobe - There's a lot of "bland" looking game because they are mostly being made by people who are new to game development and most are not artists or game designers either.

  If more people had a solid background in art first, then start making games i bet we'd see a lot more 'pretty' games. Its also very hard to properly "finish" and polish a game. most people get bored and want to explore new mechanics and concepts instead.

  Its not the engine that holding anyone back, its how people are using it.

  If anyone has been strungling to make their game a bit more special. check out his great game dev talk about making your game more "juicy".

  Problem Description

  I noticed that if you update the name of a group that is bookmarked, it wont updated in the "Bookmarks" window unless you toggle the bookmark On then Off again.

  Attach a Capx

  Capx: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B11Xu ... kVQbW1pOTQ

  Description of Capx

  Single group with a bookmark attached to it.

  Steps to Reproduce Bug

  • 1) Make sure your "Bookmarks" Window is visible
  • 2) Change name of group while bookmark is active again

  Observed Result

  Result: Bookmark name in "Bookmarks" window doesnt update unless you toggle the bookmark OFF/ON

  Expected Result

  Name in Bookmarks window should update upon changing the name, similarly to the way variables update in an event sheet automatically when changed.

  Affected Browsers

  • Chrome: (YES)
  • FireFox: (YES)
  • Internet Explorer: (YES)

  Operating System and Service Pack

  Windows 10 64bit
