  Depends on the art style. For 2D, I would go for Inkscape, ArtRage or Manga Studio 5 these days.

  You have to look unter events. There System provides loops. If you insert System as an action, then there are no loops.

  If you need to start a loop based on a condition check, make this loop event a sub event of your condition check.

  Get a result from random(4,8) and multiply it by 50

  Congrats getting it through greenlight. Well deserved. What do you think was the key to be greenlit on Steam?

  I like the execution of this genre. Saw a similar game before, not with buildings I think but the same principal.

  With the grid imho. But maybe have the lines more subtil, means not stick out so much color wise.

  I think you need to place it on a separate layer and set it its parallax scrolling values to zero.

  Anonnymitet: I had a similar situation with a tool I sold back in the days. Once I went commcial with it, my stress level went up. I think most developers who care want their customers to be happy and so go out of their way to make sure things run good.

  I pushed myself so hard and got burnt out and had to take a little break doing other projects. But finally all my creativity is back and I really enjoy working on the game again

  Was dealing with the Steam community a factor in pushing yourself so much?

  Wow, if Steamspy at http://steamspy.com/app/414950 is any close to the real numbers, then congrats — Well deserved cause I can imagine how much work you have put into this. I will join these people after the holidays too.

  Question: How many events to SN2 have currently? Is the universe created randomly?

  Anonnymitet and — , thank you for the info. Releasing on Steam will be my goal. So every info about the process and integrating Steam features is valuable for me.

  Looking very good. Question, as you had Star Nomad already on Steam, did you need to go through GreenLight too for Star Nomand 2?

  Do I need Windows 8? What else?

  Thanks in advance
