The Bee Boss looks great! As do all the update posts.

* the problem I had is fixed. Stupid error of me. Please delete this post.

+1 to 'you can never post too much'.

This is my favourite thread to follow. All the progress-gifs you make look great!

Thanks for the info. I checked the link to Toon Boom and although it looks amazing to work with, it is a bit too pricey for me atm :/
Keep up the excellent work you do!!

Maybe you have answered this before, but what program do you use to animate?
I like all the progress posts you make. Spryke keeps getting better and better. Keep it up!

It looks great! Those new screens are very nice. It looks weird and cute at the same time. Reminds me a bit of Tim Burton.
I'm looking forward to seeing more

Wow, great example!!

This takes me back to my childhood, I really liked that game.
This example makes me want to start on that platformer I always wanted to make.. Thanks!

No problem, glad I could help.

Glad to see you fixed this. All the best with this release!


Edit:: Fun game, very challenging. Maybe a tad too much ads. The orientation isn't set to landscape, is this intentional?

Strange, it says it's incompatible with my Samsung Tab 3 :/

(On a side note, I don't quite like the call you make for pestering clickteam about the facebook extension, but maybe that's just me)

It sounds like a job for the List object.
Load your list of sets into the List Object at startup, then when it changes you can simply save the changed list.

Very neat example! Thank you ColdFire!

Neat example! Is there a reason why you're using counters? I'd change the counters by values, but maybe I'm missing something here? :)

- Mouse pointer is over 'Active'

Remaking a (sponsor's) preloader can be very time consuming. And it increases the filesize a lot more then if we could just use the flash files :/ .

I don't have the time to do this for you, but...

I've noticed what most sponsors require when making a bid on FGL, is the implementation of a highscore API that works with their site. I don't know how different those API's are from eachother, but...

- You can set the amount of colours you work with
- try to avoid gradients if possible
- try to avaid soft opacity, it creates extra 'colours'

I must say I don't follow these rules 'every' time,...

That would solve the '3rd party preloaders - issue' wich afaik is not solved yet :( .

Here's what I'd do - make your circle appear in the main app, and your rectangular sub-app on top of it.

I just downloaded your example file again from the first post, and that image is not the one that I'm seeing in the example mfa :/
Are you sure you included the correct example?

Nevertheless,...

Cool, thanks StephenL. I'll try it asap.


Edit:


- How do you get "tiger.svg" to show up in the Set X line? It keeps saying it should be a numerical value.
I also don't get why at the Start...

I'm having trouble understanding this internal-external stuff too.

In the example of your last upload, it says:

and then you go load it internal.

That would be great :D

I probably repeat myself, but vectors is a must have imo. Just look at some of the backgrounds in vector made flash games. The same image in a PNG is a major change in filesize.

afaik, if your phone can handle flash, it can handle mmf2 made flash games.
But most of the time it's not ideal, since those games weren't made to be played on mobile phones.

A downside to this workaround is that you will need to host 2 files in stead of 1.

EDIT::

That's really up to Pharanygitis, since he's doing all the work.

But since you asked, I'll give my two cents. :)

If you're talking about API objects, the more logical thing to do seems to...

You can make a vector drawing as detailed as you want. It may be more work then painting pixels, but the end result will:
- be scaleable with little or no loss
- have smooth curves
- be much, much...

Too bad. I found it easy to use.
Can anyone point me in the direction of a replacement? (without pop-up blocking).
I'd be more then happy to let go of FlashHaxx, so I wouldn't have to switch...

I use FlashHaxx to open an url. I read somewhere that the Flash object does this too, but that there was an issue with Firefox's pop-up blocker. I might have missed it but is this still the case?

All these (beta) flash extensions coming out is really great. But some of them require to overwrite the flex-config file, which will make another extension unusable.
Since I would rather not have to...

Yes, it's alive! :)
Even though it's still a work in progress, thank you for putting all this effort into this. It's really appreciated.

Wow! I can't wait for this to be released.

Thank you. That worked :) . The size thing is solved now.
Only now I get blank swf's. It worked partially before, like I mentioned in my previous post, so I must have done something else wrong now.

I've been testing this but I can't get it to work. There's 2 things:

Looki was so kind to give me the CPMStar object, and my sponsor is okay with using the Mochi Stats in stead of Playtomic.
DizzyDoo, thanks for...

Yep, it works now. Thank you all. :)

Hi all,

I may have a deal for a game but it requires CPMStar ads and the integration of the Playtomic API to keep track of the performance.

Now I know there's a CPMStar object floating around...

Here's what I have set up:

* Every 02"00
- create 'enemy' at (20,340)
* XMouse <= XLeftFrame+20
- Center Display at X=XLeftFrame+300
* XMouse >= XLeftFrame-20
- Center Display...
