Apologies for the shameless plug: If anyone is interested in making a game for Game On, you might be interested in using PlayCanvas ( http://playcanvas.com ) to do so. Our CEO, Will, spoke at the Mozilla Game Jam in London at the weekend. W

Sorry! The other programmer working on this is colour blind too, but he obviously wasn't effected. The instructions say: Click to focus W-A-S-D to move Mouse to look Spacebar to go fullscreen

Sorry, we're getting a bit of a battering at the moment. It doesn't usually take that long.

Hmm, that seems unusual. I'm running a Late 2008 MBP and I get between 20-40FPS in Chrome and similar in FF. Though my machine has 512MB GPU RAM, so it's possible that you are running out of space for textures. There's still work to do ther

I'd add, that if you are implementing OAuth 1, you are making life painful for developers. If you are creating an API now, please use OAuth 2. It's much more straightforward for both server and client.

Without trying to sound too harsh, and apologies to the developer it does, this seems to be a case of "Launch mediocre game with no marketing to Google Play and make no money." I'm not really sure what he was expecting. I suggest: 1. Use th

I'm not sure, maybe you have a different definition of 'frighteningly ambitious' to me. What is the largest possible outcome from making it slightly easier or cheaper to repair your car? It saves a few million Americans a few hundred dollar

In the very short term, there are few advantages of Flash over HTML5/WebGL. In the medium to long term, HTML5/WebGL becomes a much more attractive prospect. Desktops are mostly covered already. Most mobile phones browsers should support Web

I would much rather kids make stuff that is cool, rather than stuff that is useful. They have 60 years after they leave school to make useful stuff (probably for other people).

Is it me or does it seem like adding the AppHarbor user to your project seem like the wrong way to be doing this? Isn't this what SSH keys / API access are for?

We started our current project using jQuery/jQuery UI and I found that it didn't feel up to the task. We're creating a complex single page application with many controls, etc. Things like menus, tree controls, etc, just don't exist in stand

Well, if Mojang do what they did with Minecraft it'll be out as an early alpha and then they'll develop it from there. It would be interesting to see how that method works now that they have a million interested users on day one.
