That's what I hear. That 1.0 will include the ability to move from one animation to another with the system blending the tweens.... soooo awesome :)

When using spriter, you should have the Player use a Sprite object, then pin the Spriter graphical object to the player. Then you can adujust the collision box size and get the spriter gfx to align better.

Wait, are we talking ajax loading xml files, or xml data parsing?

Personally the OUYA is the next XBLIG.

Nah it's not really.

First Xbox has a good number of users. 20-30 million. So introducing indie games on the 360 has a lot of users. Ouya has maybe 200k. I doubt Ouya has a million yet.

MS has VERY strict requirements which removes the idea that games on 360 are indie. yes they are indie, but the polish required is full usually AAA.

Ouya has no additional entry cost, and the requirements are fairly low.

Have you tried Bandicam. I used bandicam for my only 1 recoding and no problem.

C2 since the original thread has updated and should now include a feature of limiting the movement axis. It should be easier now :).

Does anyone have the APK for the launcher. I want to put 1.4 onto my Ouya, but the Ludei wiki link is still 1.3 :(

oh yes, support :( support is massive hit favouring miss. Some people get support quickly, most people get support very slowly. I would lean that there support is slow, but it is there.

Same with Ouya staff on the forums. Only the Unity Ouya staff have a resonable response time. The other Ouya forum staff are just so slow and barely responsive. I don't like Ouya support right now. Maybe I'm just spoiled by C2.

I started the RMA process for my controller as it has the axis deadzone problem. 2.5 weeks for the RMA response and form to fill. With my first email being ignored. As a hint, don't use a gmail account. I'm not sure but I get the feeling that gmail accounts are filtered. I ended up using my barely used buisness email which got a response. even there auto resonse didn't work with my gmail account :(

the very early Kickstarter backers got a lot more lemons. I have no idea if this continues to persist strongly with retails version.

I'm also hesitent if backer versions should be reviewed as a final release. Movies are usually not reviewed unti it's finished release. Though how it was released was just asking for bad media. However, it is what it is.

I think the sum of "cheap console" is the best opinion of it. I think if the software also favoured a lot more media options. netflix, hulu, so on so forth with a controller that supported it. I think it could have gone a lot better. Focusing on just games is expecting a lot of comparison of game expectations. I think some really good games will come out for the Ouya, but will take some times.

yes you can make the intended game. I will chime in that RPG's are by the hardest to make. However, that is often related to all the mini systems in place and the fact the common RPG design has more content than anygame.

However, if your game is more sandbox orientated I can see your project being more streamlined and easier to design.

And to give credit to the OP. If he has playtested the the number crunching game then he should be fine. providing he doesn't deviate from the rules into the the stanard eRPG tropes.

I think Knights of Pen and Paper does a great job to prove that a more classic RPG design, and simplified gameplay can still produce a pretty good rpg.

jayderyu: It's a work in progress/still to come, but Ludei has been pretty active around Ouya lately (they mentioned on their twitter they participated to the ouyajam and the news about C2 support of Ouya is very fresh).

Also do you own a Ouya ?

I've seen some reviews of a model that was outrageously not playable with a delay between the input and the registering of the input making most games unplayable. Has this issue been fixed since Ouya's release ?

yes I do :), I'm a $100 backer so I recieved a backers edition. I heard about Ludei being more active with the Ouya, I hoped my campaign on the Ouya forums to Boxer8(Ouya company) helped get the ball rolling :)

Someone on the forum has managed to identify that the delay seems to be related to other USB objects. As time goes by the controller delay seems to get longer. This isn't with all controllers however. Some of the developers are trying to isolate controller revision to problem. I however had a 360, PS3 controller plugged in by way of hub and have had no delay troubles. However you need to really map the controllers. I hope Ahsley prehandles this so we don't have to do this ourselves :D

I think my favourite review is

. I like this because the review doesn't take the perception that it must be equal to the current console. Instead it measures it's cost, performance, and use. Which I feel has more merit as a review than "must be powerful, must have system seller exclusives". Ouya definetly doesn't try to play that console game, but does it need to for $99us/cdn?

My problem with the Ouya has nothing to do about power. And being a developer(lol like I finished anything :D) I'm patient for elements to be ironed out. I just loath the classic design of controllers. Otherwise. I love the fact that I can try any game on the Ouya :)

you are absolutely right :)

I got a facebook account, I barely use twitter.... once a year, but I do stay logged with FB. Even if I don't post on it much. It's usually up :)

I should have thought of that sooner :)

However, I tested CJS 1.4 with my controller(360) and it didn't work :(.However, I do use only the stable versions. So if it's a recent beta release. Then I need to wait still. Though the CJS/C2 preview model looks sweet :)

And, does the CJS now support Ouya IAP? or is that still to come?

I am in the same position. However, in a few weeks I'm going to be writing an android xml parser that will fill in the gaps where the official parser should be. I need one as a non option, but I need to finish a few things first.
