mystazsea, you doing sound effects yet? I want to start putting sound in my game, but because the positional sound effects hasn't come yet I'm unsure if I should start now (it seems only appropriate for single screen games since stereo/position won't matter as much in that).

Does anyone know if Awesomium works on Linux and Mac too?

I think it's because your not doing pixel rounding for either/both the background and camera/scrolling.

If you don't want to do pixel rounding, have each sprite use an extra 1 pixel on the right/bottom side so that the graphics overlap.

Also if you're using any scale/zooming etc., always make sure you have 1 pixel transparent border around every single sprite (pressing the 'crop' button in the image editor will usually do this for you). Otherwise you get bad looking edges, which could maybe be the problem in this case.

It's awesome to see it finally working well!

I'm getting 60fps, so maybe it's just his driver settings or something that's making it not v-sync'd?

FastSpring and BMT micro are both good quick options, doing it through paypal means it'll be more work for you.

I wonder if HTML5 performance will get much better, or if it will just be newer computers/devices with more power that will make it seem likes its improving.

V-sync tries to keep the framerate of the game in sync with your monitor's refreshrate/framerate.

I reckon Awesomnium won't be good untill Decemember or sometime next year it seems.

Yeah I asked about the the rendering a few months ago. Ashley made a couple of replies:

But this is the choice quote of the topic:

could change this, but it could be quite complicated, and even modern phones can handle this kind of drawing so I would prefer to leave it as it is.edited><editid>alspal</editid><editdate>2012-10-06 23:50:19</editdate></edited>

I've only seen indication that Green Light is for games not "software".
