Cool. Anyway to subscribe to the blog? I'd like to get a notification when a new blog post is made.

I saw this on the Switch eShop. It looks really good. Blaster Master is one of my all time favorite games, just behind Zelda, and Crystalis.

Just voted yes. Good luck!

Just voted and bought DISTRAINT. I gotta play through the first one, before I buy the sequel.

Whoa... I am so buying this when it comes out! I've never voted for a game on Greenlight, but I will now. Nice work, Jesse.

MediBang Paint is another free option. I've used it on my iPad Pro. I'm thinking the PC version might have many of the same features. It has a brush stabilizer for smooth brush strokes, and I think a vector guide path with bezier curves that you can trace with any brush of your choosing.

Edit: So here's a video for the shape tool. Brushes also have a "correction" setting for smoothing.

Thanks Nimbus, I'll have a look at it.

hmm, it seems kinda pricey, before committing that kind of cash I would need to be absolutely certain it can do what I'm after.. Aren't there any good open source options?

There's a free trial link at the bottom of the page for Affinity Designer. I don't think you are going to find better software at that price. I found a few free vector tools, but I don't have any experience with them. I don't really trust free software, so use at your own risk.

No doubt! It's a bit intimidating and exciting at the same time. It's nice to know so many talented people are making themselves accessible and are willing to help new people like myself. Thank you!

Maybe try Affinity Designer. It's an amazingly powerful vector tool that also allows you to work with raster brushes. You can paint on vector shapes to add texture, or you can add raster brush stokes to line segments.

Here's the website:Please login to see this link.

There you can find a video showing off Designer's features, but if you scroll a little farther down the page, there is an example of "Natural Brushwork" that I think you might be interested in. They also have a twitter feed where they announce new features and retweet other artist's works.

I could suggest other apps, but I like this one the most, even more than Adobe Illustrator.

The current Pricing seems fine to me. I like that I can pay for the exporters I need. I would probably never use the Flash exporter, so I'm saving money there. I'm thinking about adding the HTML5 exporter, but I know I probably won't use it very often. Hmmm... I'm guessing I'm probably going to buy it anyway.

Hey, can we currently create Mac apps? I don't see an option for that...

I've noticed people on this forum seem to be much friendlier than those I've encountered in other forums. I think it'll make it so much nicer to learn and grow in this community because everyone is so helpful here. I only wish I'd switched sooner!

Nimbus9 there might be some quirky things with fusion 2.5 if you have used to use Construct 2, but Fusion 3 will fix those "issues". I'm really sure that you won't regret your decision. Construct 3 is essentially just a face lift and the engine underneath is the same. But Fusion 3 is a whole new beast, build from the ground up. With Fusion you can be a serious developer, and with Construct it's more like html5 hobby.

Thanks! I haven't found any quirky things with Fusion 2.5 yet, and I'm already liking it more than C2. So, I'm definitely looking forward to Fusion 3!

Thanks for the links! I'm creating a list with all the great tutorial links I'm finding. Oh, and that comic is hilarious! I don't think C3 will be much of a competitor once F3 is released.

I'm finally making the switch from C2 to Fusion. I'm not happy with the news of Construct 3. I feel like they've been ignoring us for years and the subscription announcement was the last straw. Can someone direct me to the best place to start learning to use Fusion 2.5?
