SpiritedV Loving the art style, .

I am almost certain that angry birds could be made in under 100 events. Maybe not the menu or some of the different power-ups, but certainly the core gameplay.

Definitely in under 100, more than likely including power-ups, .

Can I sell the game I make in the Free Edition because since I can't afford a license that would be the only way to get one, by selling the small games I make. And one more thing, when is the next competition - I would love to enter, might the the only way for me to get a license.

No, you require a license. If everyone could plead a case Scirra would have tens of thousands of people trying to grab free copies. if you sell a game you make in the free edition you're breaking the EULA and are breaking the law. Wait until you can afford a license, then sell the game.

Not exactly what I'm looking for, I'm afraid. I'm creating a top-down space shooter with a degree of realism, so if you could whip up a concept and maybe look at this for inspiration, that'd be cool if you could pop that to me via e-mail. Thanks for taking the time to make that concept, though!

Realistically, as a developer you should want a website and company name established. You can register your business name, protect your game name and assets, and use the website to drive extra traffic into marketing and further potential purchases. I think you should take a look at this self-publishing article I posted in another topic which will tell you some steps you really should be considering.

Playing the game I'm developing at the moment, . It's coming together quite nicely and is fun to play, albeit missing some mechanics (only been two weeks of development thus far).

rekjl Yeah, a bit of a brain teaser, haha. Might be easier to just remove the lighting effect (is it on a different layer per object for you to easily remove? Hope so! .

Blacksmith No worries, glad you enjoyed it and hope it helps, .

— Glad you enjoyed it and/or found it useful!

rekjl People could indeed flip for the light angles, but the light is only hitting the side. What if someone wanted light directly from above, or below as something with a light chased them from the depths? That is more what I was highlighting, not the flipping so much as that is remedied as you mentioned, .

Hey, not much but I'm open to different styles and themes. If you're interested send me an email and I can send you a mockup to give you a sample.

Cheers

Will send you my e-mail address via PM, send your samples there when ready, .

dhondon Can you please send me a PM with your prices for creating modular (each piece on a different layer) star ship sprites per your examples, as well as if there are additional costs for the PSD/AI files themselves and exclusivity?

Thanks!
