  Talking about space again. graphics are all well and good however music is the main thing that worries me.

  I wonder if it is possible to externally host? (I'f i'm talking rubbish it's because I know barely anything about these things.)

  Let's hope! The more support we get the better, so tell your friends ;)

  I saw a similar Flash bug (much less severe) with 16 stars at no.2 priority so hopefully we'll be noticed soon!

  You will also want to make it push you 'off' the wall.

  Perhaps you could consider using physics?

  Anyway, I am not sure how 'is by wall' actually works, but here's an idea if it doesn't turn out.

  Put two invisible objects pinned the player like so.

  If both of the objects are overlapping the wall, then you know you are touching a near-vertical wall.

  Of course, that's all if the problem lies in 'is by wall'. Send your capx!

  Am I correct in saying that arcade games are limited to 10mb?

  This is a rather large limitation for games that are level-based. Perhaps a good idea would be to allow those with a licence more space on the arcade? I am just worried that the quality of my entry may suffer for it.

  If the browser does not use webgl, it will automatically fall back to the canvas renderer. therefore there is no reason to not use it.

  Worked with game maker for school assignment. Realised it was really bad. Looked for other options. Bingo.

  You set the value of the variable to '1' both before and after the wait?

  I don't have much experience with them... I have not even had a response since I cleared the issue. Although with many of you behind it I'm sure we have a decent chance!

  (Maybe I'm expecting too much, I'm just so used to the fantastic customer service provided by Scirra ;) )

  For perhaps the next year or so, Flash still has the advantage. For instant results, support, etc, flash is RIGHT NOW still probably the best format for internet gaming (depending on your needs) due to its wide adoption.

  However HTML5 is pretty much already superior, and by the time the EDK kit comes out some of HTML5's more annoying bugs and limitations will be fixed.

  Empty condition is functionally the same as 'every tick'. He probably was not bothered to add it ;)

  In project properties, adjust 'window size'.
